Angela Lansbury, a versatile actor who wowed generations of fans as a murderous baker, a singing teapot, a Soviet spy and a small-town sleuth among a host of memorable roles, died Tuesday, her family announced.

She was 96.

Must be bored...added AMC+ to my streamer addiction for a few originals.

Kin -


Gangs of London -


Moonhaven -


Firebite -


That Dirty Black Bag -


and the upcoming Mayfair Witches -
Mayfair Witches Season 1 Trailer




Here's hoping they are as interesting as the trailers (to me anyway).

One AMC original I'd highly recommend. I loved it, but it might not be something anyone else might necessiarly like.

Picked up AMC the other day and binged through the 4 seasons available. Though I'd seen one or two in the past. Back in the 1990s. It's an original to AMC, not to AMC-streaming.

Remember WENN - about a 1930s/1940s radio station.

I kept thinking Kevin Bacon was already a Marvel character but that was in Xmen.

The tower, tyre, tar part confused me. I do not think I've heard anyone saying those three words the same before.

Bah. I don't know how to set things up to show how I say things. Just putting: Towe-er tie-er tare. doesn't really work. 2 syllables for tower; tire is supposed to have 1 syllable but I'm saying it with 2 (but not pronounced same as he was in the video); 1 syllable for tar.

Have you seen my tire? It appears to have fallen off. Supposed to be 1 syllable but I just can't get myself to say 1 syllable.

Right, so here's a video.

In my regional English (San Francisco accent), the "i" in "tire" is a dipthong of the sounds "ah" and "ee." That diphthong is what American English speakers are taught to call a "long i" sound. I think that's why you're finding it difficult to say that "tire" is a single syllable. You're probably hearing "tah-eer."

Also, the UK doesn't have the rhotic R, so the base consonant for the second syllable is missing.
