A limited run series about Jake running his grandfather’s restaurant after achieving a small amount of literary fame.
Can we get the Andor folks to make this? Turns out the extended story of a supporting character can be amazing when done well.
On top of being an excellent documentary the credits are a masterclass in advertising; I absolutely bought it for all the stuff teased in credits.
Today is a good day to die observe trek fans are fucking lit👏
Never have I been so delighted to read such obscure trivia
Ya look at the cast photo, everyone looks genuinely happy. I’m rooting for them to succeed.
Misogynistic post-apocalyptic Holden Caulfield
Lol that’s a new one for me. It’s funny because it’s true 🤣
I haven’t read any of the long sun books but I feel like I understand that feeling. Fwiw, I first finished all 4 books and was only satisfied with the end of book 3. Thankfully there’s so much meat between those endings that it kept me going.
That disappointment is what made me realize that I must have missed some important details and start an immediate reread.
Once I started over on the first book it was amazing to realize how the clues are just everywhere. I’m reading the exact same words, but this time they’re hitting way harder.
Sage advice. In the meeting I will assume positive intent, like he’s protecting me from mummy’s curse.
Ya I will figure it out, it’s just another clown lording over an imaginary fief.
Can’t wait for code review lol.
if they ever do an oral history of the development of that series, it will be a juicy read.
I agree. I’ve never been interested in meeting any of the cast of any of the shows, buuut if I got the chance to meet any of them I would absolutely choose disco so I can ask how it went down.
It’s just the same story, Netflix picked it up then declined to renew.
Their process ignores gems like Scavenger’s Reign and workhorses like Prodigy in favor of, I dunno, bean counting?
… the removal of the hair, having done hairless Klingons with J.J.’s films. So I’d personally already gone through the Internet backlash, and so when Bryan said, ‘Yeah, we’re going to do bald Klingons, like it’s gonna be tricky, man.’ And so everyone was salting the broth.
Sometimes you just gotta keep making the same mistake until you learn. At least this guy is humble and practical about it.
cries in Scavenger’s Reign
I won’t say no to more of this
Hell ya! One of Quark’s finest scenes:
They have weapons. You have weapons. Everyone has weapons. But right now, no one has a clear advantage. So the price of peace is at an all-time low. This is the perfect time to sit down and hammer out an agreement. Don’t you get it? Attacking the Cardassians now will only escalate the conflict and make peace more expensive in the long run. Now, I ask you, is that logical?
I want to believe in the age of enshittificiation that The Martian Chronicles will take on a new life.
It’s so bleak how it ends with highways and diners everywhere.
Your 4 year goal reminds me a lot of Cogmind’s development and the video about the journey

Best of luck
TNG character headcanon?
Worf is a narcissist. Reason: Kurn and Alexander were kept until no longer useful to him then discarded. #Justice4Kurn
Universe headcanon?
The Vulcans are augments and the romulans are the baseline diaspora. Reason: every time TPol was unphased by the anomaly because of her [superior] Vulcan physiology.
the best series finales are always double-episodes
I think you’re right:
TNG: 2-parter, check
DS9: 2-parter, check
VOY: 2-parter, check
ENT: 1-shot, check
DISCO: 1-shot, check
Romulans: Don’t Tread Mintaka On me
Maybe you’re right.
I had a response written but at one moment I wondered “is this what the writers of Picard told themselves too?”
Maybe TrekCorp isn’t at a place right now where they can tell a good standalone story without a clown car procession of cameos and references.
