Eighties were a great time for what if there was this adorable oddball receptionist. Lucy on Twin Peaks, Miss DiPesto on Moonlighting, third example

I was thinking that I need to resubscribe to Netflix, so I don’t get spoilers for Star Trek: ProdigySeason two. But then I realized… I didn’t get any during the year or so when I couldn’t see season one. And that made me a little sad. That series deserves a little nutty enthusiasm.

I think a unification poll is a real opportunity in the relatively near future. Not like… this year near future. But the next decade or so? Would not rule it out.

Oh that’s good. It was nearly the plot for DS9’s TOS episode that they went back to that planet to find it as imitation of the original show.

I think specifically it’s been said a big reason why Xena’s fifth season went off the rails is the amount of people who normally worked on the show were working on Fellowship instead. Like production, stunts, etc.

Karl Urban has had the coolest movie career. Dude found his genre niche back on Xena, and has been in nothing but high profile cool as shit productions ever since.

Look I’m probably the wrong person to say this but so many trans people in Ireland and the UK rely solely on DIY HRT and not the (at this time) much better healthcare in the US. Whatever may come, there is hope.

Yeah third makes sense but that long speech where she recounts something like a classic Greek fable like it’s a deeply meaningful and traumatic experience is something else.

Just read a Telegraph op-ed claiming the Tories lost because they were too far left, and I have a feeling that is the narrative we will hear more of over the coming years.

So the IFI is going to screen all nine Star Wars ‘episode’ films this year on Saturday mornings as kind of a tribute to the serials they were inspired by and well is there any better reason to go see them all on the big screen. So, I booked the lot.
