    I was watching with the close caption setting on. And at one point I definitely remember Jason getting to say "hell".

    Ephesians 2:18
    "For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:"
    The whole 'good works=salvation' thing is a secular denial of what is written in The Book. Kinda scary and I don't necessarily believe it, but this sitcom has inadvertently delved into religious issues that have

    I mentioned the similarities to the Twilight Zone episode "A Nice Place to Visit" and to similarities
    between Danson's Michael and Sebasian Cabot's Pip months ago. But that was on the IMDb site before they shut down their comment section.

    The entire Good Place is one big joke about upper middle class liberal culture in the Hollywood/Burbank area since that's where many TV writers come from. What constitutes Good and Evil (Bad) has been discussed throughout human history. Same with what happens after we die and what rewards and punishments (if any) come

    Exactly. And Mariner II passed by Venus in December and Mandela was arrested in August. Different universe.

    Its not really our universe. Mandela was arrested in August, the Cuban Missile Crisis took place in October and Mariner II reached Venus (flyby) in December. Look at the electronic ticker tape.

    In an interview Spotnitz admitted he didn't want science fiction to interfere with the story of human interactions but that sci-fi was definitely part of the story. I'm hoping they tie the dead/alive nature of Trudy and the Heisenberg device and the films together. A bomb built by Heisenberg may have used elegant

    From what I remember the tone of the story was rather neutral in judgement of the Overlord's actions. But I would like to see how SyFy deals with that whole prohibition of space exploration thing without immediately turning the Overlords into tyrannical prison guards. Back then in 1953 there was no space travel. But

    I've given up on this show but our two neutered male cats got into a fight when a stray tom sprayed our screen door. Misplaced aggression. So while I kept one in our bedroom to cool down I decided to see Gone to Tampa on my computer. It struck me how similar Tandy and Todd's behavior to the new Phil is. None of these

    I'll say it again. Phil is dead or at least in a coma. No way will a healthy cow with milk survive in the Tucson-Sonora desert without anyone to care for or protect her for two years. Dairy cows have their horns surgically removed so she'd be easy meat even for a pack of coyotes. Phil is living in a fantasy world of

    The stupidity of this show and the stupidity of most views about what Utopia is has fascinated me for a long time. Then suddenly I had a flash of inspiration and everything became clear. It starts with More's term 'utopia' which actually is Greek for 'no place'. Utopia is the Abyss. And as Nietzsche said "…if you gaze
