Well, sure, I don't think that "crew member falls in love with a holodeck character" is necessarily a terrible concept; TNG did something different but similar with "Hollow Pursuits" and with "Booby Trap" and "Galaxy's Child", all of which I think were effective. But personally, I thought "Fair Haven" was just very…

It's nice that people are so excited about Bryan Fuller doing a Star Trek series, but as someone who is only familiar with him through his Star Trek work, I just want to remind everyone that he had the sole writing credit on the Voyager episode "Spirit Folk". You know that episode with the comical Irish holodeck…

So Fitbit technology from the 23rd century bigger and bulkier than what we have in the early 21st century.

One of the greatest voices.

Are you familiar with Smile? That might be more like what you expected Pet Sounds to be.

Yeah, it's not a concept album, unless we're broadening the definition of that term into meaninglessness. It is a coherent work of art, which I think is what people are trying to say when they call it one.

Yeah, that's such an egregious and easily checked error to make that for a few minutes I was like, "Wow, really!? How is it possible that I never knew that?"

The Beach Boys reunion in 2012 was pretty great.

I'm convinced that there's some kind of time inflation effect going on that makes years much shorter nowadays than they must have been in the '60s.

Eh, there's a lot of great stuff in the post-Smile era, but there's a lot of rough spots as well. For every "This Whole World" or "Til I Die" there's a "Student Demonstration Time"…

I don't even know that it was that divisive in 1966. It did less well commercially than it should have, but it seems like among people who actually noticed it the reactions ranged from "pretty good" to "the greatest work of art ever". The only person who actually didn't like it might have been Mike Love…

String or nothing!

You know, it never occurred to me until just now that "90s fashions" could be a thing. I mean, sure, it makes sense, but my immediate reaction is "isn't that just regular clothes?"

No? I mean, I wear jeans and a t-shirt every day, is that any different? Then again, I wear jeans and a t-shirt every day, so maybe I'm not the expert. What's a shirtdress, anyway?

The Star Wars prequels. Please don't hurt me.

There are tons of well-liked works and artists that I just don't get (e.g. Forrest Gump), and plenty of genres that I hate (e.g. disco), but for a particular "masterpiece" that I despise, I would have to agree with A Prayer for Owen Meany, which I would say is one of the three worst books I've ever read.

I've never seen Grease, but I'm pretty sure I despise everything about it.

I loved that place! Perfect for "the ground is acid and you die if you touch it" games.

Hey, is that by any chance the Imagination Station in Roxbury?

He's never combined his Blues-mania with his Paranormal-mania. Maybe that would've saved Blues Brothers 2000.
