The director of Nemesis clearly—very clearly—didn’t care about Star Trek. So, dunno exactly where you think this argument leads.

Put Ron D. Moore and Seth MacFarlane in a room, give them a pad and paper, and lock the door. Tell them you aren’t going to unlock it until you get yourself a pilot for a new Trek series.

Isn’t the political allegory half, generally, strongly overlapping with the half in jumpsuits?

Then you’re kinda bad at this whole ‘typing’ thing.

I’m pretty sure Cary was supposed to be the epitome of an obnoxious bro, so there’s that. What made me think of the show was the last season(s?) where Alicia is banished to bond court and discovers, presumably along with much of the white middle-class audience, that absolutely nothing about the ground floor of the…

The Good Wife.

Aaron Sorkin’s The Newsroom, which ran for three seasons, was widely lambasted by critics for its overwrought depiction of what covering the news is like, and whatever was going on with Sam Waterston.

Whether or not something is morally wrong has no bearing on whether it is punishable under the law, and the law is particularly bad at realizing relevant moral distinctions in extraordinary situations; one might even say it is designed to avoid such nuances entirely.

I was with you right until the last sentence. Crazy is a vague term, but usually homicidal mania easily qualifies, and she’s got some tweaks atop that.

Witcher fan?

What I am saying is Trump dying would be beneficial to the world...

There was a case last year where a black man who clearly had his hands on his head and obeying all instructions was nonetheless shot. For bonus points, he was the caretaker of an autistic man who was the cause of the disruption that brought police to the scene. Even the cop who shot him couldn’t figure out why he did…

It’s got some really neat bits (the stealth stabbing scene, the in-the-woods climax of the story’s conflict scene) and some sharp performances. For me, despite those positives it really just don’t come together as well as some of his others (esp. Unbreakable). The rending of garments, though, seems to be driven by…

Right? It would simply be “That jackass deserves to be dead.” That’s country over party, right there.

Do you vote?

I’m pretty sure if we went four deep on the presidential succession in short order, that would be crazily more destabilizing than killing only the president. And given how bitter people are in this political moment, how prone our information ecology is to giving people only what they want to hear to fuel their own…
