a convo w/ rj about tv-signoffs.com

I stumbled upon a website about TV Signoffs, which is "devoted to the memory of a bygone era in American broadcasting", when stations didn't broadcast 24/7. I was delighted by this hyperspecific [and interesting] find, so I showed it to my go-to friend for these discoveries, RJ. This led to a conversation that I thought was worth sharing, so that is exactly what I'm doing :P

You can read RJ and Lindsey's conversation here. I think it's of interest to both the oldschool Dreamwidth crowd and the Cohost expat crowd?

...unfortunately, as of 2024, TV-signoffs.com no longer exists - not in a way that matters. Towards the tail end of 2023, the site simply became a blank page for its hosting service. Going to the link as of 2024 will simply show a camped-out domain with a very modern-looking (derogatory) Wordpress placeholder site.

Here's what the site itself looked like in 2022, when RJ and Lu had their conversation:
