"Night Time" with Andy Bumatai

Re: "Night Time" with Andy Bumatai

Tutusue, I was reluctant at first to subscribe to DVR, the whole "Do we really need it?" And, NOE 'negotiated', but really it was the increase of only $5 plus the tax that sold me.[...]

I just haven't gotten around to ordering it! I know I'll have a learning curve, no matter how small, and I'm resisting it! My daughter has 2 DVRs because she records so many shows. She got the TV watching genes from my parents...not me!

Re: "Night Time" with Andy Bumatai

This past week has been way too social for this tutu so I missed most of the shows. I really do need to get Oceanic's DVR. And I also need to visit the show and harrass a couple of my friends...esp. Matt Locey!

We use it often, and it helps when our littlest soul trumps all of our cards and we end up viewing his choice during prime time!

Rehashing an old topic in this thread about doing a "person on the street" type of segment on the show, last night's show they brought on a "person on the street" to the program, in this case a construction worker named Winston who was on break from the intersection of Kapiolani and Piioki to say a thing or two about what they are doing there.

Profiled in today's Honolulu Advertiser:

Late-night Bumatai

Bryan, who has been involved with radio and TV talk shows for 20 years, created "NightTime" with Bumatai because the two men believed local viewers wanted their own version of a network talk show. "It's a typical talk show," Bryan said. "You take the good, you take the bad, you take the ugly, and you make it all work to put on the air every night."

The first show aired last month, and while Bryan does not have official ratings numbers, he claims that his surveys have found a public clamoring to watch. "We went into this not knowing who was going to watch us," Bryan said. "Everyone is happy. It is taking off like a rocket. We're the first to say how surprised we are."

Two separate stations — K5 and KHON, which is the parent station for the local CW channel on digital cable — have committed to 52 weeks, he said. Advertisers have committed for three months.

Also includes a photo gallery.

He could use better writers, though.

I been to many of Andy's comedy shows...and he is pulling a little from here and there...plus he includes current events. Maybe he is his own writer?

Now, if the KFVE News at Nine would run only 30 minutes long instead of 35, would be better. Othewise, they should shorten the show so it won't cut into my 10pm news.

If the show is shortened, it won't make $$...need the sponsors. They should shorten the newscast instead...keep things standard.

Hmm...I'm on Andy's side...I love the show. We need a poll here.

No offense to Augie T, but Andy's the guy to go national with his ferfect english.

As for Frankie DL, I prefer him in a variety show instead of a talk show.

Re: "Night Time" with Andy Bumatai

This is the schedule for the upcoming shows at the Hilton...seems like there is a big gap between the taping dates...maybe they may rerun some past shows in between.

Re: "Night Time" with Andy Bumatai

Been watching dis show for the past couple of weeks... Andy Bumatai is not funny, and really hasn't been since his "All in da Ohana" days. This whole show is just sad. Bettah if they had Augie T. or maybe even Frank DeLima hosting, since they are way funnier and quicker. I wonder who is pushing Andy to be involved in this project for one whole year, and what makes them think they can go nationals with dis crap?! How arrogant on their part... Auwe!!

On a positive note, Don Tiki band sounds good, and Don Stroud was the funniest guest so far. Poor Andy - I feel for da bruddah whose time has come. Aloha.

Thanks for the link. There are some nice photos there.
Are you "spacechaser" on that board? I looked for you and couldn't find you.

I'm not on the board as a member...just looking at the stuff that is there. This guy is a bloggin' nut...probably a good asset for the Andy show, as he is also their webmaster.
