My work-friend who's a big Trek fan said the same about the first two seasons of TNG, so he recommended I start with season 3. I'm not really much of a completionist so don't have issues skipping poor seasons of TV

Thanks. I've already watched Babylon 5 (it was the comparisons to B5 that finally convinced me to give DS9 a go) and loved it. I think I will give TNG a try and maybe start with season 3.
I think I'm actually going to miss it when I run out. I nearly gave up during the second season but am really glad I stuck with it now. I especially loved the whole mini-arc at the start of season 6 with the Dominion occupying the station. The climax of that arc was fantastic.
Random Thought - I'm currently watching Star Trek Deep Space Nine on Netflix. I've never really been a Star Trek guy before but based on everything I've heard about DS9 I decided to give it a go, and despite a slow start have mostly enjoyed it a lot.
That happened to me when I saw School of Rock. Completely alone. It was great.
On two separate occasions (Charlie's Angels 2 and Hugo) the projector overheated during the film, leading to lengthy break while they fixed it. On Charlie's Angels 2 that meant seeing a frame of the film actually melt, which was pretty cool.
This is something that's started to bug me about the films over time as well. Whilst you argue it's a necessary evil or even make the case that it's a deliberate point about the thin-to-non-existent line between being a freedom fighter or a terrorist or that the first casualties of war are always the innocent, but…
I just need to point out how great the casting department did casting Jasmin Savoy Brown as Kevin Carroll's daughter. They have such similar eyes that I could really believe she is his actual daughter.
"As for your penis, well, no one would go that length."
For a moment I read that as "barbecue sauce magnet" and was confused, wondering if people were just always throwing sauce at him or if sauce was always being spilt on him.
"Jason Ritter’s The Gospel Of Kevin"
That would make sense, sort of an evil version of the "fido has gone to live on a big farm"
I've read that she's done for this season, but not sure about next season yet. It would be a good way to show us more of the world as well, such as the colonies we've heard mentioned a few times
Dear producers of the Hulu original show "The Handmaid's Tale":
I think that Emily's joyride is a moment that will stay with me for quite a while, especially the little moment of her and June holding hands before they get separated, and the little smile that she briefly flashes whilst she's driving.
I was as disappointed by the end of Lost as anyone, but to discount everything that came beforehand because of that just seems silly to me. It's still one of my fave TV shows ever, regardless of what happened or didn't happen in the final episode.
When I heard that Alexis Bledel had been cast in this show, I will admit that based on her past performances, I had doubts that she would be able to deliver with this kind of material. After seeing this episode, I'm glad to say that I was completely, utterly, embarrassingly wrong. Without saying a single word she…
Definitely. The show has made it clear that the women turning against each other and the other little rituals like being forced to be complicit in rape are all very intentional by the men that run this society.
The best/most horrifying part of this episode for me was when the wives gave Offred the cookie and then one of them said "isn't she so well behaved!" like she's a fucking springer-spaniel. Such a revolting and condescending moment that sold the horror of the situation as much as anything else in the whole episode.
And then they break through that wall and end up inside of a French Jazz musical!
