Also, family is a super-important theme in TNG. What's the episode directly after "Best of Both Worlds, part 2"? "Family". (and I seem to recall a family crisis in the middle of Wrath of Khan...)

As much as I remember the plot of Nemesis, yes. That was part of Shinzon's backstory. I am ready for it.

There was: James T. Kirk (!!!!). So... body-snatching? I didn't really like that reveal, but I pretty much love everything else about the episode. I'm going to be sorely disappointed if Picard doesn't continue as Shaw, where every 3rd episode is Jack and Sidney getting into hijinks while flirting.

It said so on the label! I feel like we now know what Rise of Skywalker could have been with a great script.

Recollection Wine is fermented from ghosts. It allows the imbiber to relive pieces of the decedent's life. Blends are intense, recommend only for the most experienced oenophiles. Sold in the Port on the Aster Sea by a chap named Earnest Gallows.

An interrogation, street justice, dinosaurs.

Drove me crazy, too.

"History began in two thousand and three (which was rather late for me) Between the start of the Iraq War and Taylor Swift's first LP" (apologies to Philip Larkin)

Now they have a laser.

I am ready for Star Trek: Shaw. This season is taking the the best thing from the original films; mediations on mortality and the road not taken punctured by big screen space opera action. Not quite repeating the likes Khan so much as rhyming with it. (loved the retcon-ish reason for powering...

I think you can fix a lot by redesigning the encounters. More opponents, more opponent actions, etc. Consider giving bigger bads lair or legendary actions, even if they're technically not big or bad enough to get them. This is going to make combats more complicated and slower. Slower is probably...

It’s a Heinlein juvenile reimagined as a CW show. I watch it when I want some easy viewing.

I really like Shaw.

What @Dannyalcatraz said. Alternately, I already have Final Fantasy and Mass Effect. It’s nice to play a different sort of RPG for a change. Also, I like making characters. It’s, like, a creative outlet when I‘m not running the game.

I expect it will be as good as a mall bookstore fantasy paperback. Which is as good as I need it to be. (it’s not going to be House of the Dragon good)

Empire of the Petal Throne.

You know, there are some perfectly good Riftwar novels you could start adapting...

Our next campaign is going to be about a trial program of roller-skating cops in Santa Monica in 1977. Like a cross between CHIPS and Roller Boogie with some Barney Miller mixed in. Spirit of ‘77 is the prefect system for this (also the inspiration). Does that sell or unsell it? I don’t know.

Thanks for reminding me it’s out!

Eli Cash as Bob Ross? I’m in!
