Hercules in Space! Also known as Andromeda. Arguably, until Sorbo took full control, it had a pretty neat story and setting, but when he drove away key writers it became less interesting... Never watched the final season, I think.

Brutiful! Did someone post the Andor 1975 fan TV intro yet?

It's disinformation to cover her money transfers. In the first episode that introduces Mon Mothma, she makes a point to call out her new driver as probable spy. If it was true, she'd try to talk about it without prying ears.

Kinda exactly what a fellow poster warns us: If you design a slavce race in your fiction, you open up the head space to allow that a sentient seeming being might just be acceptable as slave. This may be possible in fiction, it may be possible in a hypothetical future with machine intelligences...

I don't think anyone involved so far is a Jedi and will just take them at face value. I think putting former Jedi or Sith in at this point kinda undercuts the story, showing off how "normal" people deal with the Empire and the rebellion. And this episode was fantastic. Kino did know what he...

Hooray!

It might be just the kind of internal department jealosy and jurisdictional conflicts you might expect from a totalitarian bureaucracy where everyone fears that he's the next on the chopping black and needs some ace in a hole. The kind fo shenengians Dedra was dealing with, when the officer...

I guess I understand why you would write this. And that sound of prison doors closing over a view on the Imperial Standards cubicles...

That was a really nice season finale. Actually, in show canon, it seems that's how Elven dams seem to work. Or at least I presume the dam that opened with that little Sauron artefact and created Mordor's gloomy atmopshere was of Elven design. ;) Bear McCreary is at it again. So far I think I...

I don't know that Vel will never trust him. He only took the share he was owed (which is nothing compared to the money they stole). He did pretty much do exaclty what he was paid for, and probably saved her from being shot in the back by Skeen. (And she probably will believe the latter more...

Maybe particularly because he doesn't let go and he doesn't stop himself, at least not until he (and we as audience) has some catharisis. Jen still hasn't hadn't reach that catharsis moment. She stops herself before she can get there. Or at least the episode stops...

Les Miserables. That was exactly what I was thinking about. Even though I only saw the first half of the movie musical and otherwise only have the cliff notes from For the Uniform's conflict between Sisko and Eddington (DS9). I mean, Andor did certainly do more than steal bread, but Corporate...

That was a good episode. Lots of twists and turns. Of course, also extremely furtious timing... But that's definitely LotR stuff, I'd say.

That means: He was most likely in a fight recently and didn't immediately seek treatment for a blaster wound. He escaped that fight and got where they are without being pursued When he recieves treatment without pain medication he barely responds and doesn't complain He is together with a...

I am reminded a bit of the Star Trek episode whose name I forgot about a civlization of children. There was a disease that killed off all the adults. Maybe the mining accident lead to something similar. The people from the crashed ship didn't look like they all died in the crash, the ones that...

I can't help but smile and yet feel for poor Ortega's cruel fate...

The earliest time I experienced this was when one of the The Three Investigators (very popular in German as "Die Drei Fragezeichen???") contained an illustration of the characters that didn't mesh at all with how I envisioned them. Mind you, I also have the habit of glossing over detailed...

It is a quite unique thing. There are not many people that lived a life as long as she did, and it sad to hear them pass, because of all the things the experienced will be lost, and only the memories of those that knew the person (and are still alive) remain. She was the Queen of a large nation...

I mostly enjoyed this season, though I feel the ending was weak, because it seemed like it reduced the importance of some of the story during the season itself. Though it definitely sets up a "final" season.

I think he did, but the projectile he shoots first flies in a straight line, and only retargets in case they miss. So the only thing he loses without the helmet is the ability to retarget them - and he didn't expect any of his prey to use his helmet to target him, the standard case is just that...
