Needlenose Ned! Ned the Head!
Holy crap it is! It's Ned Needermyer!

Have you ever harmed a human being, or through inaction, allowed a human to come to harm?

Throw a wooden clog at his head from orbit. It's the only way to be sure…

*Nerdy voice* Nostromo is actually a corruption of the Italian, "nostra uomo", or "our man", from the eponymous novel by Joseph Conrad.

Those would be those butter cups that suddenly and alarmingly burst open when you get too close?

Giantess, please.

You're right; my recollection is that she was wearing scabby old work boots with steel toecaps, but it's possible I'm remembering Alien 3, where texture was a near-palpable quality.

I'm guessing (hoping) that this isn't some misguided attempt to adapt Larry Niven's brilliant A World Out of Time, which features a ruined future society divided into Girls and Boys; immortal, hyper intelligent pre-pubescents who are no longer bound by the attractions of adult desires and have split into warring

I wasn't; but thanks anyway.

Ruby is a dreadful, dreadful old woman. I'm pretty much hate watching her right now. She's like Chopper, over on Star Wars Rebels, only more sociopathic.The sooner some fatal accident befalls her, the better this show will be. Maybe Charlie can return and … I dunno; run over her by mistake?

A Kryptonian and a human hooking up is potentially a Very Bad Idea, at least according to Larry Niven:

I always wondered why Scotty took the kid to the bridge instead of sick bay, where there are staff and facilities to help greviously-injured crew.
While dramatic, it could be argued Scotty's actions contributed to the death of his nephew.

I thought this was a pretty entertaining episode.

Ohh man. I am still a confirmed fan of Diane, Jack and the rest of the show, but I fuckin' hate Ruby. What a horrible, selfish, superstitious, ignorant old woman. And so freakin' loud! Does she have any lower volume settings?

I was thinking about the drab Inhuman guy they were pairing her up with. Marvel seems to think Skye (sorry, Daisy) should stick to bland white guys who look as though they're called Chad and probably belonged to a fraternity at some point.

I like the idea of Sky (sorry, Daisy) and Mack, from Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. The two of them actually have chemistry together, unlike her and that Superpowered McBlando dude, who becomes furniture when he's not actually in motion.

Isn't Giffen the guy who was outed for plagiarizing ( basically photocopying and pasting) whole pages from Munoz' Sinner comic book?

…Good point. I'd fogotten the size discrepancy. It's not as though he re-sized from inside her superior vena cava or whatever , in which case you might expect quite a mess.

I've watched most of the episodes to date,and found it… curate's eggish. I don't know if I'd have stuck with it for a long haul, though. It's difficult to see where the premise was going to go long term.

Yes; that kind throws a spanner into the delicate structure of my theory.
