I definitely felt some Asimovian vibes from Emperor Spock setting forth the fall of the Terran Empire and the eventual liberation of its denizens (with some interference from the Prime Universe).

Sure, Earth is a myth by the time the Galactic Empire begins its fall. However, the prequels do note that racial identity survives in some form as there’s at least one discussion in “Prelude to Foundation” noting that some people are Westerners, others Easterners or Southerners (although many, many others are…

Richard Gibbs did most of the scoring for the miniseries and McCreary took over for the main series and beyond.

I kept thinking of Cake’s “Rock ‘n’ Roll Lifestyle,” particularly this verse:

[Interviews have been edited for clarity and length.]

Part of what apparently happened is that Blu del Barrio, the actor playing Adira, hadn’t come out yet to their family as non-binary when filming the first several episodes.

In terms of viewership, initial ratings indicate “Saturday’s Clemson-Notre Dame college football game averaged a 5.4 rating and 9.44 million viewers on NBC, per Nielsen fast-nationals, marking the highest rated and most-watched Notre Dame game on NBC since USC-Notre Dame in 2005 (6.7, 10.1M).”

NBC has a big contract to air certain Notre Dame games, so they’re going to air Notre Dame. Broadcast networks generally hate to shift games to their cable channels — they probably lose a piece of their audience and everyone’s still a little gun-shy after the “Heidi” game where NBC cut away from a Jets-Raiders game to…

These figures look better than the animatronic figure that Disney World added three years ago. That figure looked like Emperor Palpatine with bad hair.

That’s good news, as it appears the “Ted Lasso” creative team will be able to tell the story they set out to tell. A reddit thread included a YouTube interview with Bill Lawrence by CherryLosAngeles where Lawrence apparently indicates they planned a three-season arc (which the Lasso character hinted at in the first…

“Would that it were so simple.”

“Andromeda” wasn’t based on a Trek script. “Andromeda” was a retooling of notes from old Gene Roddenberry projects including “Genesis II” and, apparently, “Strange New World” (according to ye olde Wikipœdia).

The Department of Temporal Investigations appears in several tie-in novels and novellas, mostly written by Christopher Bennett. They’re pretty fun reads.

The amount of the salary is debatable, but the president and his family are responsible for personal costs incurred while in the White House (e.g., meals, dry cleaning and staffing costs at personal events).

It _is_ a CBC series. In the U.S., Pop TV aired and co-produced the show (since 2014), which I’m sure helped it qualify for Emmys. However, I think much of the show’s popularity in the U.S. is due to it being on Netflix.

I don’t think the data is capped at 12 GB (they _do_ have a 12 GB plan for $25/mo.).

She could call herself Doctor’s Daughter Mid-Nite.

I’m among those still miffed about how Tech TV got chewed up and spat out in the merger with G4.

For a TV converter box that outputs in HD, I used an earlier version of the Mediasonic Homeworx HW130STB. It gets the job done without cutting a lot of options (like being able to change the screen ratio). I never tested the recording function because you need to bring your own hard drive.

If you want to upgrade, the…

According to Apple, the Apple TV+ app is available for Roku, Amazon Fire TV devices and a number of smart TVs (in addition to Apple TVs, of course).
