Personally, I loathed almost every minute of the execrable “Space-f***ing-Babies” episode...

Man, isn’t Mangold 100% right about how film journalism, including io9, puts way too much emphasis on box-office, and especially first week-end box-office, as the be-all and end-all of a movie’s success.

“So, great news - for Q2 we’re up $100 million because we haven’t had to pay anyone!”

I have a bad feeling about this

Please just use this title.

College kids, drunks and stoners 15 years ago: “Man, if I could get fast food delivered right now, that would punish. These restaurants would make a billion dollars, I don’t know why they wouldn’t try it.”

Gonna miss the table service. They were always a solid choice for breakfast or lunch when I was travelling. 

I’m not sure if all of them are laid out the same, but there used to be one by my office and I went there once. It looked like a standard fast food place with a counter to order at and drive through. 

I’ll be part of the small cohort that associates them with Moon Zero Two.

Counterpoint from a musician:

We know from Whedon and Tim Minear that their plans for Season 2 of Firefly included having Inara raped by Reavers to make Malcolm feel bad (but it was okay because she had poisoned herself in some fashion so all the Reavers died).

Ash vs Evil Dead 

HBO’s Carnivàle which was meant to run for six seasons but was canned after two in 2005. Fascinating story, brilliant actors, beautiful sets and costumes. Left the plot totally hanging and tried to play it off as a satisfying conclusion that made any sense.

Alphas, killed by SyFy after a great first season and a giant cliffhanger in the season (and series) finale. I'm still bitter about that one.

Carnivàle.

The Expanse is number 1 on my list. One of the best science fiction shows in history cancelled by syfy (who decided they’d rather show “SF classics” like Mansquito or Sharktopus instead. C’mon— what you’re supposed to show is right there in your name! Grrrr. I have not watched Syfy since out of principle. The Expanse…

If anyone is curious what the unlabeled article photo above was from, it’s Netflix’s 1899.

They must be getting a little nervous-they’re dropping the Amazon Smile program on short notice. Alerting customers, and seemingly charities, today with a cutoff date of 2/20 seems a little panicky.

I just skimmed but... is Carnivale not on this list?

What the fuck.  No Carnivale?  The only complaint is the show was canceled, I rewatched it and it holds up magnificently, with the best title sequence in TV history.  I'll definitely take it over House of the Dragon.  Shame!
