I get most of the authors here are young and come at things from a different perspective, but please don’t discount us “olds” who saw this show in real time and really wished something like it existed much earlier. Had I seen this type of show when I was 14 (1982) my life might be much different now.

I’ve no idea which Democrat I’m going to vote for. But my nearly 70 year old Republican father stunned me with this comment, “I really like Mayor Pete.”

The thing I enjoy about Stewart in this entire situation is that I have no doubt he’s genuine. His jokes about McConnell looking like a turtle may seem like going for the easy joke, but you can tell he has seething contempt for him. The only other time I saw him visibly despise someone in this way was when he roasted…

I feel like his balls would smell like sweaty feet and his feet would smell like sweaty balls. 

There’s an episode of Black Mirror about this.

JE SUIS THAT BITCH

Ohhh, that’s a good one.

My theory is that during the rescue, Picard discovers that the super nova was actually caused by Starfleet itself (probably Section 31). The rescue is a relative success, but this revelation is what causes him to quit.

The UK brexited the Federation and Picard finally had to admit that he’s not French but secretly English?

I am guessing Picard did not fail Starfleet. I am guessing Starfleet failed him.

Curiosity compells me to want a Quentin Tarantino Star Trek.

It feels like the failure wouldn’t have been his directly, but a failure of the system he worked so hard for. Say for instance Star Fleet at the last moment prevented the rescue armada from actually going to Romulus, or withheld the intelligence of what was happening till it was too late.

The book is screamingly funny. I seriously recommend not reading it in public places because you’ll be reading along and suddenly laugh out loud and it will be awkward.

I confess, my longtime mental casting for Aziraphale and Crowley has been Fry and Laurie (either in either role will do, really), but I gotta admit, these two from the trailers are looking good enough to rethink that. 

One might even call it...ineffable.

It’s particularly great!

This is one of my favorite books of all time and I cannot wait to watch the series. Good to know it’s largely a successful adaptation.

This might be the thing I have always been most excited about coming this year (yes even more than Endgame) so I’m really happy to know that it’s good and close to the book. I was hoping it’d be so. It was looking like it would be so. It’s good to know it is so.

Been visiting the UK with the wife and this has been my travel book. I’ll have finished my re-read just in time for the show. Can’t wait to watch it. Unfortunately not really been to many places from the book (though did go to Soho which has cleaned up substantially since the writing of the book much like the…

I went to the prom in 1994 and 1995. I have tried on these dresses. I have been in these stores. My 1994 dress was red, strapless, to the floor with a slit. Sequined across the top. My homecoming dress from winter 1995 was going to be like the Black and White Jessica McClintock, but another friend wanted that dress,…
