There’s no such thing as too much choice.  Sure, in some cases, you might not want all the choices you get, but when it comes to paying for something like, say, a cable channel, then options are always good.  In the wake of HBO’s announcement of a stand-alone streaming service, Showtime immediately jumped on board, too, with a $10.99-per-month Showtime Anytime service.  However, if you’re a cord-cutter or you have a Hulu subscription, prepare to save a little money.  Hulu is going to be offering a Showtime subscription for $8.99.

Of course, you have to already be a Hulu subscriber, but if you don’t have cable, there’s a lot of great reasons to subscribe to Hulu.  Start with the Criterion Collection then work your way down to Tommy Wiseau’s mangum opus The Neighbors.  That’s a great reason to have Hulu Plus by itself, and you may as well double up and get both Hulu Plus and Showtime for $17 per month.  Showtime offers both Emmy-winning fare and crowd pleasers like Ray Donovan and Masters of Sex, so it’ll be a great addition to Hulu’s really stacked line-up.

The option to add Showtime isn’t there yet, but it will be added before the beginning of Showtime’s newest season of programming July 12.

I’ve never had a problem eating food from a gas station.  Just two weeks ago, I ate a couple of hot dogs purchased from a gas station.  They were delicious.  That’s not the first time I’ve eaten gas station food, and I doubt it will be the last.  There’s nothing like a fun food novelty. […]

Commissioner Roger Goodell gathered 32 NFL owners for one big question.  One of the league’s most wanderlust-stricken franchises is looking to move again.  The Oakland-Los Angeles-Oakland Raiders, tired of gutting it out in a run-down stadium, were once again looking for greener pastures.  Only the Miami Dolphins refused to cooperate.  With a vote of 31-1, […]

In 2006, an injury to Dallas Cowboys starting quarterback Drew Bledsoe opened the door for an undrafted free agent by the name of Tony Romo to take the helm of America’s Team and lead the Dallas Cowboys to an early playoff exit.  Bledsoe went from starter to afterthought in a season.  Now, the circle continues […]

For 89 years, Oscars has never had a major mistake.  The last few Oscars might have had a few flubs, but at least they never got the most important category of the night wrong.  Well, that’s now changed, all thanks to OG Bonnie and Clyde legends Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway.  When Faye Dunaway called […]

Tom Brady has been wildly successful, if controversial.  He’s the first quarterback ever to win five Super Bowls and only the second player to do so after Charles Haley.  Unlike Haley, Brady won all his Super Bowls with the same team, the New England Patriots.  The only thing that seems to be able to stop […]

Ben Affleck, no matter what you might think of him, is a talented actor and director.  He’s got the goods, but he’s smart enough to know when he’s in over his head.  All along, since he took on the mantle of Batman, he’s had his eyes on writing, directing, and starring as the Caped Crusader. […]

In May, students for the for-profit American College of Education were running into some problems.  Their access to email accounts and course information was locked down by Google, who had disabled their accounts.  The reason why?  A fired IT worker for the American College of Education locked the school out of their Google cloud account.
