I mean, ENT fared pretty well (and grew on me) despite it being generally shitty for 3/4 seasons, dealing with some stupid time travel plot macguffin that ends with the crew going back in fucking time to Nazi Germany to fight fucking aliens. For what it's worth, I really liked some of the expansion ENT did to the…

I don't remember them being in Empire at War, but then again I was always playing Zann's faction so I had a lot of Mandalorian fighters and Destroyer droids.

Well, a general purpose slave at least (sex is implied but it's a kid's show).

Maybe you're right, they don't want to overuse her or whatever. I think the other problem (and the reason I think she's dead) is that age old bit of OT canon that the only Jedi that are known are Obi Wan, Yoda and Luke. The fact that she could even go toe-to-toe with Vader and survive is almost incomprehensible to me…

So, what? She's stranded on Malachor? She hasn't tried to make contact with the rebellion over the past few months? I think she's dead, otherwise there would be a rescue effort trying to go find her, because she was an integral part of Sato's rebel cell, doing the bulk of the work fighting the inquisitors.

I don't think he's ever going to leave the picture. I think the's going to crush Sato's cell which is why they're not around for ANH and possibly Rouge One, although you could explain either of those as just being another cell entirely.

If their chief concern wasn't trying to sell toys to kids (and let's face it, adults too, because we're all a bunch of man-children watching a show aimed at first graders) I bet the series would be better served as being an anthology. One season you're with the Ghost crew and you see how they struggle against the…

Kanan and Hera aren't married, unless Kanan broke the Jedi code. Jedi aren't supposed to form attachments without being prepared to lose them entirely. Marriage is totally out of the question.

Oh. Well, in that case, I can agree. The argument for him and Kanan dying is a pretty big part of the OT canon, where Obi Wan says that the only Jedi left in the galaxy are himself, Yoda and Luke. You can't just have Kanan and Ezra exist during even ANH because why the fuck wouldn't the Ghost crew have helped try to…

I mean, I guess, if you subscribe to the Ezra = Snoke theory.

I want more Thrawn too if he actually does something other than have an elusive and ill-defined master plan that involves letting the rebels get away all the time. Give me the Thrawn that's actually a threat, not the one who yells at people for disrespecting cultures. Show me that Thrawn has a real plan and isn't just…

This episode scratched some itches for me. Hondo is always a welcome addition to the proceedings. He's a fantastically fun character all around, even if he is kind of scummy at times.

I'd give it a C on space battle scenes alone, and then dock points for the lack of good story. C- is probably where it stands for me, at slightly below average.

At the time, there were about 40 shows including SWR that were axed from the TV Club lineup. They've brought about 10 of them back in some form or another, most of them have "discussion posts" which serve to allow people to comment on the show without giving it a real review (and probably paying much less to the…

That's a major problem with a lot of episodes though, besides the ones where Rex joins the crew. Every character they have rescued or recruited falls to the wayside and is never heard from again. Kevin points out the imperial academy recruits from season 1, and I can think of other stuff that doesn't get used at all…

I think, overall, for a children's show, you're more than fair with the grade; iirc, the worst grade you've given to date was a D to the Chopper-driven filler episode. I think the inherent problem is that we truly want adult oriented Star Wars (which we'll be getting, hopefully, with Rogue One; I predict a phenomenal…

I don't know about you personally, but if you've stuck with TWD this far and not gotten completely fucking tired of zombies as a fad, I have to applaud your patience. I got bored of TWD around season 2 because I was done with the zombie fad before it totally outplayed itself.

Yeah. Valiant (DS9 season 6, episode 22). A crew of Starfleet Cadets end up being in command of a Defiant-class ship because their commanding officer was killed in a surprise attack by the Dominion. It ends with the ship getting destroyed and only a few survivors saying that they should have done more to prevent the…

Well, there's this section and the "what's on sale on Amazon today" daily article that have cropped up ever since the Univision takover of the Onion and its related media. There's certainly more going towards advertising things as opposed to being "pop culture for the pop culture obsessed" like it used to be. I think…

It's more of, they told me "this is a comedy, why are you thinking about it" and other people jumping on that same vein of "look at this weirdo, he keeps statistics of how often Mitch and Cam are petty to each other, isn't he such a weirdo?". I mean, I guess I am a weirdo for generalizing statistics about Mitch and…
