Can’t they just play the dueling banjos from Deliverance, Kid Rock songs and that “Not in My Small Town” mess?

Man for a hot minute Alien Nation was my favorite show. I remember it being excellent but I’ve never gone back to watch it and have no interest in grainy youtube videos. Part of me wants to see if I can find it somewhere, but another part wants to just remember loving it and not risk discovering it was actually

Mrs. F. started watching this right off. I was always in the room dicking around on my phone or laptop. But then I started paying attention and dammit if now, by S5 I can name almost the whole cast. Almost.

In a couple of months, Freeform won’t have any original programming left. It wouldn’t surprise me if Disney shutters the channel in the next year. When Charter and Disney had their carriage dispute a few months ago, Disney agreed that Charter didn’t have to carry Freeform along with FXX, Baby TV, Disney Junior, Disney

They can’t get rid of it. It was a contractual agreement that the 700 Club stay on the air when he sold the channel to Fox years ago. They wouldn’t have to air it if they shut down the channel though. 

I’m constantly surprised that Freeform still has to run that ghoul Pat Robertson’s 700 Club daily. I would have thought Disney would have appealed to his god, the almighty dollar, and exorcised him from the channel.

Of course you could care less.

It’s so stupid that I did actually chuckle. GGs.

This is legitimately one of the absolute lamest attempts at a joke that I have ever seen.

I hope they at least keep Annie Potts around as MeMaw some of the time. I doubt they’ll make her a regular, but occasional guest appearances would be great.

This warms my heart. I’ve been watching The Facts of Life on antenna tv and Norman Lear did the spin off thang really well. 

Seriously. I bet they could get Boyega back if they made it a TV series focused on that relatively low-stakes story (there doesn’t need to be giant superweapons or elaborate evil schemes) and especially if you framed it in the context of social justice. Hunters, but Star Wars.

Totally agree.

If the movies are good, peiple will watch.

L. Frank Baum churned out Oz books, plays, and silent films for his entire writing career and it never got old. However, that was a case of one creator with a singular vision writing something he enjoyed. What holds the MCU back now is that it’s crafted from many hands, about half of them seemingly indifferent to the

Honestly I’d be happy if he forgets he invented farting aliens.  

I am really worried about RTD returning and the specials did nothing make me less worried. The clip with the goblin song has not helped. RTD does a lot of good things but the specials have relied too much on his weaknesses. I started watching Who back in the Tom Baker era so there’s a lot I dislike about new Who:

Agreed. Even in the three specials, I could see Davies’ best and worst tendencies at play.

BEST: He focuses on human stories in the middle of fantastical settings, first and foremost. He introduces a new character, you get them and sympathize with them almost instantly. And when pressed, he can create great tension in

So, when Moffat created puzzle-box companions, it was bad. But now that Davies is doing, it’s good?

“When you have a show that can go anywhere in time and space...”
