McBrayer stopped by Screen Gab to talk about his own favorite children’s TV shows, what he’s watching and more. Now he’s turning that sweet demeanor to educational ends: In “Hello, Jack! The Kindness Show, ” premiering Friday on Apple TV+, McBrayer channels Fred Rogers to help the kids of Clover Grove tell stories, adopt pets, play games and more, all with an emphasis on the same gentleness and compassion that made Kenneth “30 Rock’s” go-to confidant. Michael Ordoña Guest spotĪ weekly chat with actors, writers, directors and more about what they’re working on - and what they’re watchingĪs Kenneth Parcell, the unerringly optimistic, TV-loving NBC page of “30 Rock,” Jack McBrayer brought a childlike affection for the medium to Tina Fey’s lacerating backstage satire. That, and a palpable love of canines (Tatum co-directed) that doesn’t require them to be perfect to understand them. Such small resonances separate “Dog” from standard fare. Confrontations often don’t go as anticipated, either: After two human Army-vets emerge victorious from a tangle in a homeless encampment, one says that five years ago that could have been him. There is ugliness in the given circumstances it doesn’t shy from- the dog is trained to attack people who look like Arabs, after all. It turns out to be about second chances, including the chance to change for the better. Rather, there’s a low-key ring of truth to it. But “Dog” (Prime Video) admirably refuses to become either absurd or maudlin. The trailer promises hijinks and it stars Channing Tatum, after all. It’s not what you’d expect from a comic drama about a hustling Army Ranger trying to work his way back into active duty by ferrying a decommissioned combat dog to her handler’s funeral.

But “Feds” is inescapably a vehicle for the larger-than-life, honey-voiced Nash-Betts, who gets to say things like “I’m the razzle, he’s the dazzle” and “Get ready to watch your girl save the day” but can also put a lot of spin on a simple “Hello.” - Robert Lloyd

(Indeed, Simone’s fellow “probie,” played by Kevin Zegers, had previously been the star of a TV series called “Vampire Cop.”) Other members of the colorful ensemble get a lot to do - the show is as much about their personal business as their professional, including a little queer romance for the star. The crimes and killings notwithstanding, the show is essentially a comedy, a playtime romp in which actors running around with guns drawn always look like actors running around with guns drawn.

Here it’s the undeniable Niecy Nash-Betts as Simone Clark, a guidance counselor turned probationary FBI agent, but conveniently attached to a new unit of “out of the box thinkers” - where, as the farthest out of the box, she is immediately crucial to cracking cases. Using a photopolymer emulsion (compared to a diazo-based emulsion) when you have a low UV light source will make a huge difference toward success or failure when making a stencil.A spinoff of Nathan Fillion’s “The Rookie,” the spiky, sparkly, likably goofy “The Rookie: Feds” (ABC, streaming on Hulu) repeats the parent show’s premise of a person in mid-life starting from the bottom in law enforcement. Photopolymer liquid emulsions (and photopolymer capillary film) work well even with poor light sources. Manufacturers developed photopolymer emulsion products because they know that many screen printers use an exposure light source that is less than ideal. It exposes very quickly and has a wide exposure time range. Photopolymer emulsion is very sensitive to light. If you think of emulsion (or capillary film) as the “photographic film” used to make your stencil, think in terms of speed and light sensitivity. While the light source will determine what kind of art you can use to make a stencil, the type of emulsion or capillary film that you use is actually more important. Most people who want to build their own exposure unit mistakenly think that the light source is the most important consideration.
