Trump's SOTU speech is said to be at least two hours long, possibly three. Don't watch. He won't say anything you can't read about in five minutes tomorrow, and you know he cares A LOT about ratings.

Do yourself a favor and watch something else. TCM is running the 1944 movie "Gaslight" tonight—it's where the term "gaslighting" comes from. I'm sure that's just a coincidence.

@augieray Top choice. Love that film.

@sellathechemist @augieray ...ironically, the producers of the 1944 film tried to gaslight people into thinking it was the first "Gaslight" film. They were remaking a 1940 film of the same name and story, but when they bought the rights they specified that all copies of the 1940 version be destroyed including the original negatives ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaslight_(1940_film) ).
