Trek does feel dead. The fans want TNG nostalgia and/or The Orville (I’d argue they’re the same thing) and have no real interest in the show going forward. Add the owners of Paramount to this and it feels like we’re in for The Mandalorian but Star Trek from here on out.
Maybe I’m wrong, but even thought I haven’t loved all of the new Trek, it felt like the took a swing, now it’s going to be fan service from here on. And not in a fun Lower Decks kind of way.

Hey, is Daneel in this?
Not that I can remember. Hari is an ongoing main character and it has time jumps. It’s very different.

I really enjoyed it. Academy has been a good show, it’s a pretty strong first season. Let’s hope they can land the ending.

I’m betting it’s going to be an adaptation of the manga where they’re vampire hunters in school
I’m sorry, what the fuck?
That sounds like the maddest story pitch ever. Is it any good?

It’s all very standard.
Yup, it’s fine and I had fun with it, but would have liked a bit more bite to it. I did like that it avoided some CW love triangle nonsense with Caleb and Genesis, they teased it, but had the sense not to.
Also, is it in Caleb’s contract to have his top off every episode? Just wondering.
Tig Notaro continues to be a joy.

The Greatest Trek podcast has Tawny Newsome on talking about how they wrote EP5 and it’s a delight of a listen. I didn’t know she was so hardcore trek!

Yea, I enjoyed this episode. This is exactly what star trek is. If people can’t get over star fleet academy being a young adult show, because it’s set in a university, they’re being dicks.

Two years after starting this stupid project I’m finally finished.
So here is number one. A band most of the world never heard of, let alone remembers from the 90’s.
Proto post rock / metal. Grunge, alt rock, shoegaze and a dash of doom jazz.
This is the good stuff.3 users thanked author for this post.

Here’s the best two ep / mini album compilation to ever come out of Larne, Northern Ireland
Just out of curiosity, Uncle: what other two ep/mini album compilations out of Larne, Northern Ireland are there?
Not a clue. 😅

We also tried the new season of The Witcher and didn’t even make it to the end of the first episode.
Same here. Even the fact I was drunk couldn’t get me through that crappy episode.

And I saw Maiden in 1986 (Somewhere in Time”) and

Plus the “Somewhere Back in Time” 2008 Powerslave stage.That sounds pretty great.

Also Farage is soft on Putin. Although Farage is constantly shifting, I am not sure what to think of him.
That he’s a dangerous shitbag that has done untold damage to the UK and caught Ireland in the backwash.

Burr has just understood that there’s no use bashing progressives and women because they’ve lost.
There’s a really interesting interview with Marc Maron on the wtf podcast about this.

I assume the trailer is aimed for people who have seen the tv show, because it leaves me totally cold.
It’s a shit trailer for a terrible show. I can’t express how much I don’t like that trailer. I hate it so much.
