Wasn't that a Japanese series, @Groppler_Zorn:disqus - only there it was called "Rapeman"?

An "Enterprise Battle Group" was what I had in mind, @avclub-183f50a7700982a3ed18ff6d7a5777bf:disqus - except the Senior Staff wouldn't risk their lives every week. That would be the actual stars of the show, the Away Teams or the crews of the craft that did the brunt of engaging the enemy in case of battle (hence

"Allegedly", from a man whose already gone to studio-mandated Anger Management Therapy, @banmar.

Henry V for me, @avclub-53e4db6f596904f154b5efa09193e3ab:disqus - my parents wouldn't let me read Huckleberry Finn due to all the "bad words" in it. (Like I said, Christian Conservatives of the Sixties are in many ways more liberal than the Democratic Party is now!)

You're right, @avclub-183f50a7700982a3ed18ff6d7a5777bf:disqus - and TNG would have been better for it if that had been the case! If Picard was an Admiral who was seldom seen aboard the Enterprise, and Riker was the Man-of-Action captain of a ship designed to be the point of any Fleet assault action (like the Defiant,

Oh…yeah, that she did, @banmar:disqus .

Well, Gibson did kick one of the Executive Producers, @banmar:disqus - and apparently he and an AD had mixed it up earlier. Makes me wonder if Jenna Elfman isn't feeling relieved Dharma & Greg only ran five years, before Gibson decided to use her as a punching bag!

Okay, I know I'm an old man and thus inherently out of touch with what's on The CW, @disqus_Zt4JAKoGQ8:disqus - but which shows are these?

@gus_sheridan:disqus - all for that, especially The Phantom Stranger, who was Dr. Thirteen's personal cross to bear before he and Zatanna hooked up. (Quick, stop me from doing a buddy cop series starring Terrence Thirteen and The Phantom Stranger, and they're both in love with Zatanna!)

Naw, @avclub-ce6c92303f38d297e263c7180f03d402:disqus - she did rom-coms for years, and none of them went anywhere!

Naw, she'll come back at Forensic Pathologist Jordan Cavanaugh, and McCoy will keep looking foggily at her and going, "Did I sleep with you…?"

Well, you can find dumpsters anywhere in a NYC alley, @avclub-e3f5ab7f02122f95b801e13e2c586d6a:disqus - not like a refrigerator, where you have to rent an oversized one to make sure the actress fits in it, there's a LOT of liability if you get stage blood and fake grue staining the inside, and then there was That One

Naw, he just retired, @avclub-66f121c7c924fa316bfa0fd70dfd509b:disqus - which surprised me, as I figured Richard Belzer would have taken Munch to some other city to be a cop of their show! You know, like The Blacklist….

@matthew_stechel:disqus - NBC's parent company, Universal, owns the rights, and it's airing about as eternally as Original Blend L&O at this point, so they'll keep cranking out episodes until the Heat Death of the Universe, or the Television Syndication Model fails, whichever comes first….

Ice-T, @avclub-e3f5ab7f02122f95b801e13e2c586d6a:disqus - didn't he used to be a rapper?

Oh, yeah, watching it now, @disqus_TwP96vze6y:disqus - even accounting for dubbing? Did Jayne Mansfield ever cheat on Mickey Hargitay with Alec Guinness or Ralph Richardson or somebody with real talent…?

…and half the over-the-air channels too, @avclub-e3f5ab7f02122f95b801e13e2c586d6a:disqus ! It seems whenever I channel surf at my office (where I've cord-cut, and am watching over-the-air and streaming, along with my DVD collection), I see "LAW & ORDER" crop up on at least two-three local channels.

@vitaminshoe:disqus is asking for a friend, @avclub-2ffe5ae29bb6b60145835654b541b443:disqus ….

You married Lita, @avclub-2ffe5ae29bb6b60145835654b541b443:disqus ?
