Though you can watch in air-date order, StarWars.com put out a nice chronological list that puts things in their proper perspective:

I have a little over half that run, and agree whole-heartedly about the intro to the Marvel U, as well as all the elements cribbed for King of the Monsters.

Doug’s Batman run in the early 90's with Kelly Jones is damn solid too- he was really going for experimental, thought-provoking themes post-Knightfall, and it

Well, thanks for my next Con goal! “Threshold of Danger! Doorway to Wonder!” I love Doug Moench’s captions. His Godzilla stuff was great too. 

I remember those things from another show - Jason of Star Command. Was that the “American” version of Shape of Things to Come?

In the most perfect example of irony I know, Farenheit 451 is indeed on a number of banned books lists every year.

Seriously, how many families in Illinois, Kentucky, Missouri, Oklahoma, etc... have a family legend about such-and-such great-grandparent who was part or full Native American? I’ve been told of at least three in my family tree, but without a shred of actual documentation. And no way am I sending a private company my

That’s probably true, though I wonder if Florida sugar, Texas oil, and cotton everywhere would have given their economy a boost around the time of WWI. I’m far from an expert on, well, anything really, but it seems that there were definitely resources that slave-owners would have exploited to remain in power, thus

Heh, see I don’t want to watch Man in the High Castle either...

That’s interesting, I didn’t know any of that. I’ll admit, when I saw only the names Benioff and Weiss, I instantly didn’t trust that the end product would be compelling or satisfying. I have a similar distrust of J.J. Abrams and Stephen Moffat - if they don’t have a confident collaborator holding their reins, the end

I think Confederate, as a concept, could be amazing in the right hands. In its best form, it would shine a light on how far we’ve come, yet how so much farther we still really have to go in terms of systemic racism in this nation. In the uneven hands of Benioff and Weiss though, that was almost certainly not the show

It’s also in the Marvel Star Wars books - Last Flight of the Harbinger. It was pretty fun.

The now-defunct GameTap service had the sequels to that game. They were released episodically, with all of them telling one really funny story. If memory serves, they saved the world from a demon by ceding the US to Canada...

I have VERY mixed feelings about this news. First, screw all TV network streaming services, especially those with stupid names (Peacock? Really?). Does “revival” mean a continuation or a reboot? I have no idea if you can capture that magic again - there are some weird ideas and concepts going on in Quantum Leap, but

A lot of it probably was. I’ve fortunately never been in that position, but the salt water is supposed to allow for better buoyancy, so if you spread your arms and legs out, and let yourself float, that 11 hours is completely possible (if terrifying and exhausting). I’d be curious to know what kind of PFD the guy was

You didn’t waste ANY money. You aren’t actually buying cookies, you are donating to a Troop. Your cash translates into funds those girls can use for things like STEM courses, and trips to cool places.

I think I still have most of a bottle of Laphroaig 10-yr in my cabinet. I found the smokiness too overwhelming for my tastes (which is leaning heavily Irish lately), but I might dig it back out to try it with this combo...

So, are we still going with the idea that Sheev’s kid was the result of a consensual (although likely transactional) relationship? Or is the more probable alternative just too uncomfortable to discuss?

While the episode overall felt very uneven for me, that moment absolutely gave me chills. It was the perfect callback.

I would LOVE to see Bo-Katan, especially if they have Katee Sackhoff playing her, but Moff Gideon even possessing the Darksaber would seem to imply that she is pining for the fjords as it were...

I mean, what? I realize this is a show whose entire premise is that demonic possessions are not only real, but just the tip of the iceberg, so why is it the dumb real-world legalities that I keep getting hung up on? The daughter of your key witness is having emergency heart surgery? I’m not a lawyer - I haven’t even
