Which is hilarious because Trek and X Files are essentially the origin of modern piracy practices.

The Cage is my all time favorite TOS episode. I think the version of it that eventually aired with the series is better than the original version that was supposed to be the pilot though. Long live Captain Pike yo.

Not that I don’t agree with the general criticisms of the show this season but I found it a great improvement over the first season which I thought was generally awful on a “boring AF” level until the back half. So I guess I’m still in until it gets canceled, warts and all, since at least this year it was actually…

Kinja. Always Kinja.

That was one of my theories, too. My first was that Eph would end up having to kill him, which is where I thought we were heading at the end there. I ain’t totally pissed at what we got but they missed a chance to give Eph and Zack both a better arc.

I went to high school in California with two friends who were born there but had English parents. For one it was both parents for the other it was only the one parent. Brianne’s accent hard core tracks with that linguistic experience based on how my friends spoke. The one with two English parents has one of the…

I’ve actually been pulling the old disqus threads up on their site as I work through the show (first time watcher, binging all five seasons in one go). All of the threads are still active and it seems like even with the episodes which have had comments move over, not everyone’s comments made it. I personally was never…

I’m assuming the clown stuff is tied to the actual roving gangs of clowns rumors that were going around during the campaign last year. I’m a little surprised that so many people didn’t see the connections. It was part of the utterly surreal landscape that was 2016.

Bless you. I look forward to another season of Ravi being the best from you. And also I think you brought me out of the grey. SO thanks for that too.

I’ve given up on merging my disqus and kinja accounts and the comment migration that’s supposed to come with that process. Disqus used to arbitrarily switch me between my millahnna and TheLabRat logins on AVC so I don’t think I’d be able to get all of my comments over anyway.

It manages to avoid most of those tropes while simultaneously being worse than those tropes. It’s kind of a neat trick but seriously, skip it. It’s not even the fun kind of bonkers most of the time.

I’ve also had akinja account for awhile. You’ll notice I don’t  use it.. Because it’s awful.

And now it’s only sometimes letting me have the account. Can’t comment on the Kinja help article at all.

On zoo, an octopus was flying a plane. I think. I’m still a little confused tbh. But it’s totally bonkers and definitly not boring once you get past season 1.

Bonkers like The Strain and Zoo but bugnuts stupid like Under the Dumb. And then boring like Aftermath.

Amen to that. Had to trick the damned thing into letting me have the account.
