Oh, I'm sure it'll be popular and successful. We're overdue for a space opera that isn't Star Trek, and the subject matter is timely. I'm just hard to please!

Which will still leave me frustrated at Blake's badly explained re-appearance in the final episode of TOS.
Anyway, I'm not sure I can watch a B7 without Paul Darrow in it.

Well, I'm out of date on where Word is these days, since it's no longer in my daily toolset. But I'd assume that LLM tech will infiltrate its grammar checker soon, if it hasn't already. Microsoft is in FOMA mode on all thing AI.

It amuses me that this cast photo excludes Blake. Writing out your title character after just two seasons is such a British thing to do!
