For my wife, Sir David's voice is like fingernails on a chalkboard! Personally, I just find it distinctive.
And his voice puts my wife right to sleep!

After several days of watching everything utilizing the HDR Effect Medium setting, I've decided to keep that setting active going forward. It gives me a more detailed and pleasant viewing experience no matter the programming. Sports, classic films, newer films and even studio shows.For those of us that own the OLED65E6P which video settings do use? Value Electronics calibrated the following settings for me:
HDR Effect Medium
ISF Expert (Bright Room)
ISF Expert (Dark Room)
Up until today, I used the HDR Effect Medium to view any 4K/UHD presentations, whether on 4K/UHD discs or 4K/UHD showings on DriecTV. For Blu-rays and DirecTV 720p or 1080i/p viewings, I've used ISF Expert (Bright Room) for daylight viewings and for night time viewings, I'd used ISF Expert (Dark Room) setting. I have a great deal of ambient light in my HT room during daylight hours.
So today, I was watching some "Sherlock" TV episodes during the daytime that I recorded beforehand and decided for kicks to watch them with the HDR Effect Medium setting. After some comparisons between that setting and ISF Expert (Bright Room) setting, I preferred to watch those recorded episodes with the HDR Effect Medium even though it was only displayiing 1080i instead of the normal 2160p you get with 4K/UHD programming. The HDR effect made it a more pleasurable picture to my eyes.
Have any other 65E6P or other 4K/UHD model owners experimented with the same settings?
It looked good, but not quite good enough for a BD release in my opinion.I so much want this film on Blu-ray disc! I haven't watched the DVD for some time but going from memory, the elements seemed to need a lot of work. What was the picture quality of the TCM showing? Good enough to prompt Warner Archive to consider a Blu-ray release?
I've never seen it so his comments and the film itself should be very illuminating.The Blue Gardenia is playing tomorrow morning on Noir Alley. I can't wait to hear Eddie Muller's comments about that film.

This morning I watched the 4K/UHD of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them and thought it was another 4K/UHD disc. However, several sequences in this film scream for 3-D, so I'll be trying to buy that disc if it's ever on sale or low enough price point.
My latest viewing of "The Blue Gardenia" was enjoyable. Muller's commentary before and after each movie makes that experience very worthwhile. I loved his comments about Raymond Burr. It is ironic that the actor best known for playing Perry Mason always played the villain in film career. He was excellent in those roles, but he was always the bad guy. Other classic bad buys like Lee Marvin and Ernest Borgnine, at least, mixed in some good guy roles during their villain playing days. Come to think of it, some our best villain actors became good guys like Bogart, Widmark and Kirk Douglas to name a few. William Powell was another one.The Blue Gardenia is playing tomorrow morning on Noir Alley. I can't wait to hear Eddie Muller's comments about that film.

I'm going to see Beauty and the Beast tomorrow. My local theater screwed up on their discounted Tuesday pricing so I got to see this Dolby Atmos 3-D presentation for $8.50 instead of the usual $11.50 ticket cost.So ... You indicated that you might try to catch the new "Beauty and the Beast" as well. Did you get the chance to view it? What did you think of it? (My wife and I think it's *terrific*!)
After seeing her earlier in her career, I must say she has turned out to be a very attractive woman.Color me envious, Robert that you've chewed through the Planet Earth II series, Scarlett and Rogue One in a short period of time.
Scarlett in 3-D should be a priority for me...
