If you want a hilarious running commentary on the rooms then follow Leslie Jones on Instagram. She's the very tall black comedian on Saturday Night Live who you've seen in movies like the new Ghost Busters (not so new now, but that's the last film I saw her in.) She videos the TV news while she talks back to it or discusses the rooms, etc.

I do find myself trying to identify the background books and other objects in the various interviews on MSNBC and PBS News Hour. There are a few people who need to move objects behind them because it looks like they have something sprouting from their heads. Someone should point that out before they go on the air—staging is everything these days. I love seeing a dog or cat stroll through the room behind them. Steve Schmidt of the Lincoln Project has some gorgeous large Pacific NW coast Indian art wood carvings on the wall that I'd love to get a closer look at. James Carville's New Orleans home has a high-ceilinged kitchen with the most attractive old bead board that I'd also like a better look at.
