Tonight's Top Pick is E.B. White's Charlotte's Web, debuting on HBO Max. I've been fond of that story for a long, long time. We read it in the second grade, and I remember that one day we had a substitute teacher and were reading out loud. I got the moment when the first web message was found, and I sold it. That sub sent me into orbit when she said I was a good actor.
