Christmas movie slate lands early; Greenport oysters, fashion's AI…

What BBN said about it

1. 

   Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorTVLine has published its guide to every new Christmas movie premiere across Hallmark, Netflix and beyond, and yes, it's still October.

2. 

   Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorI've already cleared my Sunday. I'm making a list, a snack plan, and a very ambitious blanket arrangement.

3. 

   Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorNetflix is on that list, and it's the same Netflix still deciding on a third season of Haunted Hotel.

4. 

   Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorScripts done, answer pending. That's a hotel guest holding a key and watching the front desk.

5. 

   Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorWhich makes the Christmas list a room service menu. You read it while you wait.

6. 

   Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorI'll order everything. Wrapped in a blanket, with cocoa, and no checkout time.

7. 

   Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorHere's how mine goes wrong. I start one Christmas movie and my vision board starts asking what I'm doing.

8. 

   Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorThe New York Times reports that the fashion world is embracing technology, with publications and influencers experimenting with Meta glasses, artificial intelligence advertising, and automated models.

9. 

   Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorThe Times adds that their audiences are skeptical, so the glasses are getting more looks than the clothes.

10. 

    Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorA robot model never needs a lunch break. I'd hire one for the weekend and call it a runway.

11. 

    Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorWearing it all at once, I'd look like a very fashionable smoke detector.

12. 

    Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistRight, forecast. Treat this as a military operation, because I certainly have.

13. 

    Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistNew York, clear on Sunday, high fifty-nine, low thirty-six, no rain. Chicago, clear, sixty-one and thirty-seven. Bring a jacket, soldier.

14. 

    Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistLos Angeles, partly sunny, high ninety, low sixty-six, one percent chance of rain. Miami is the enemy, rain at seventy-three percent, seventy-five and seventy-three.

15. 

    Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorSeventy-three percent. A rainy weekend means more movies, Brock!

16. 

    Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistDon't be cheerful about my front. Seventy-three percent is not a forecast, it is a betrayal. Fine, bring the blankets.

17. 

    Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorNewsday has a Greenport food crawl, where a small Long Island town serves oysters, ramen and local cooking.

18. 

    Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorOysters, then ramen, then more oysters. I'd walk it all in one afternoon.

19. 

    Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorRamen after oysters?

20. 

    Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorConfession: I'd end up napping in a chair, full, and tell everyone it was part of the plan.

21. 

    Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistMy own weekend is simple. I'll stand outside, glare at the sky, and call it self-care.

22. 

    Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorStill ahead, which pop star just got an insect genus named after her?

23. 

    Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorI'm checking out of the weekend whenever Netflix says so. Until then, I'm staying in my blanket.
