Speaker to the void. Pesky cyclist. Surely can't be serious.
Great song. Great misheard lyric.

The Mayflower pilgrims remained loyal subjects of King James. As they were only separatists in a religious context, they were 100% immigrant colonisers. You can change 'built' to 'conquered' in your sentence there.

Star Trek has always been optimistic and progressive, so anyone calling out the show for those values isn't a Trek fan. SA is not a show for legacy fans. It's a teen drama with goofy, infantile characters and adults that disrespect standards or are annoyingly abrasive. Is that what Gen-Z want?

Legacy Trek fans are clearly not the target audience of an obvious 'for the feels' type teen drama set further on from the nonsense Discovery timelime. Quite a bold strategy to invest in such a glossy-looking show to try and win over the modern audience viewership. Yeah, good luck with that!

Director: "We want to avoid wide shots for our viewers still using 405 line sets, so all actors must stand as close as possible to the inferno at all times. Thank you for your attention to this matter."

Had given up on The Michael Burnham Show after season 2. 'The Burn' is just a laboriously dull plot device. Trek should always be episodic as that absurd series of events could have been done and then undone in just one or two episodes at most.

That's right. It was already a dark time of the year and nothing prepared us for that shocking ending. I was 10. I hid away in my wardrobe after seeing it, absolutely bereft. :)

Missed a trick not beginning this post with "Information..." :) As long as Alex Kurtzman isn't allowed anywhere near the project, then it stands a chance. 🤞

Oh yes. The trauma of that finale still hurts. "Have you.... betrayed...... me?" 😢

Barry Gray's theme for Space 1999 series 1 is, without doubt, the best TV theme of all time. If the show ever gets a reboot, you can be sure the theme would get reworked (ruined).

Considering the very high failure rates of 'open marriages', it might end up in divorce anyway. There has got to be cheaper ways for the fessor to gain more time for book reading. :)

To gaze upon the squared circle of the WWE is not merely to witness "sport," but to enter a sacred space of modern performance art—a grand, visceral liturgy where the body becomes the ultimate semiotic tool.

Unless something has gone very wrong, there really shouldn't be a vacuum between you and your TV, so it's fine you can hear the sound effects. 😜

B, b, b, b, b, b, bri, b, b, great!

That's some striking artistry. The Baroque period style is perfect for this brilliant concept. Dramatic and flamboyant. :) Bravo! 👏

Aye, you can have different reactions to the same piece of media over time, but that doesn't make a fixed piece of media 'interactive' as such because the only thing to change would be on the viewer's side. Unless there's been some terrible ITV edit butchery! :)
