Bring back Slings & Arrows! Make Canadian(TV show)s great again.
I think if Canada wants to have a strong cultural identity we need to go back to doing what we're best at, making the weirdest fucking TV shows you've ever seen

You’ve been kidnapped. The characters from the last TV show you watched are trying to rescue you. Who’s coming to save you?
It: Welcome to Derry.
Based on this last episode, I don’t think this is going to end up well for me.

A live-action Dragonlance project, or Speedball/New Warriors the movie.
If you were a despotic president, what movie would you force Hollywood to make? I want to see Quentin's Star Trek movie or maybe Kill Bill Vol 3.

Due to a convo @cyberpilate.bsky.social and I had recording an episode of gothamitespod.com (new episodes coming soon, we swear), I’m curious to get a sample here, biased as it may be. Please answer & RT for a large sample size.

DONALD TRUMP FIVE MINUTES AFTER MEETING ME: If you think about it, Speedball’s definitely the strongest hero in the Marvel comics. Almost as strong as me! And we really should forget that whole Penance thing. I mean, what even kind of word is “Penance”? It’s like forgiveness, and we don’t forgive.
DONALD TRUMP FIVE MINUTES AFTER MEETING ME: You know they're saying Sylvester McCoy is an underrated Doctor, and you know, maybe there's something in it. A lot of great stories in those last years. A lot of great stories. Year four of the Cartmel years would have been something special, folks.
DONALD TRUMP FIVE MINUTES AFTER MEETING ME: And as you all know Mega Man Trigger is still stuck up on the moon. But it's wrong, it's a terrible thing, and Capcom should be ashamed. They should be ashamed. You know they said they were going to make a third one, but they chickened out

My parents thought this would be good for me to watch to learn what could happen “just in case.”
To this day, I have nightmares about nuclear war (less often as I’ve gotten older, thankfully), and if a loud truck or similar noise wakes me up, my first thought is still, “The missiles have launched.”

THE DAY AFTER debuted on ABC #OTD in 1983.
The TV movie about a nuclear attack on the U.S. was so traumatizing, my English teacher Mr. Pirro cancelled his classes the next day so we could all talk about our feelings.

I’ve got two that don’t quite fit, but are close.
1) Had I not moved between 6th and 7th grade, it would have been Nicole Eggert. (She was in 8th grade when I was in 6th) At the time I was a classmate, she was already known for showing up on “Who’s The Boss” regularly.

Who was in your high school graduating class, +/- two years, that would be of interest?
For example, I took a basketball class and graduated w/all-time 8th man Jud Buechler (look it up), and may have followed Stephanie Seymour (not sure if she still WENT to school after I moved there).

And now I’m kind of glad that the New Warriors TV show didn’t make it to air, because I wouldn’t want this app associated with (the actor who played) Speedball.
The app was co-founded by Calum Worthy, a former Disney Channel actor known for starring in “Austin & Ally.”

I’m in S4 of my B5 rewatch, and since @straczynski.bsky.social is here, I’m hoping he’ll answer my question. When recording the opening title (“It was the year of…”), did you have each actor read the whole thing & decide who got which bit in editing, or did you decide ahead of time?

Ballot successfully dropped off while out running errands. Only one measure on the ballot (to keep the fire dept running at current capacity), but still three cars in front of me and one behind dropping off ballots. Mail-in/drop-off ballots work!

So, you’re saying you used the pardon power, one of the most far-reaching powers the president was given by the Constitution, on a guy you know nothing about?
O'DONNELL: Why did you pardon Changpeng Zhao?
TRUMP: Are you ready? I don't know who he is
O'DONNELL: His crypto exchange Binance helped facilitate a $2b purchase of World Liberty Financial's stablecoin. And they you pardoned him.
TRUMP: Here's the thing -- I know nothing about it

Getting ready to turn off the porch light and call it on the loneliest Halloween ever. Not a single knock/doorbell despite fairly pleasant weather, and kids not having to get up tomorrow morning for school. I really don’t understand it.
