The Middleman! It was 1 hour comedy that played on ABC Family that sadly got canceled after its first season. It was a farcical take on the super spy genre based off the comic books of the same name with Matt Kessler and Natalie freaking Morales. Vampire Ventriloquist Dummies, Zombie Flying Fish, and all Alien Boy Bands. It’s a hilarious send up spy and comic book tropes.
You lucky So-and-So! It’s a heap of fun!
Ha! Jokes on Janeway, I’m in to that shit.
Honestly I love how much Kate Mulgrew grew in to the character. Janeway is such an interesting character and she turned in a really complex and interesting performance.
Plus Hologram Janeway is so much fun.
I’m feeling personally attacked here! I come down on the Boimler side here I think, and I’d hate to argue with Beckett but she’s wrong.
All Star Treks are awesome in their own way and there all my Favourite. I can’t and I won’t be made to pick a series.
Those Old Scientists era is where it all starts and nobody tackles those great social issues like they did.
The Animated Series is so forking batshirt crazy and fun. And they brought us my bois, the Kizinti!
The original cast movies brought Trek back from the repeats. Yes even numbers are better but five got me to ask “Why does god need a starship”
The Next Generation really kicked it in to high gear and expanded the universe.
DS9 - I wouldn’t recommend any long story format higher.
Voyager - if I didn’t love Voyager Janeway would kick my ass.
The TNG movies had some kick ass action and amazing space battles.
Enterprise really explored the beginnings and had a lot of fun filling in the niches and contradictions.
I could keep going on and on but it’s late and I’ll leave you with how I alway feel about Trek series. My favourite one is one that I’m watching right now
Eh, I prefer Mancala then any off your new fangled ‘board’ games
Travelers is such an underrated show! Really good premise, tight well thought out time travel, solid storytelling and some great performances by lesser known actors. I really want to second its recommendations. Honestly it’s not top tier prestige TV but damn it’s good.
I’m really surprised that nobody’s mentioned The Last of Us yet. It really used the uncommon technique of changing POV to really suck me in to its storyline. Right from the start when Joel’s daughter dies in the tutorial it was a gut punch as I had ‘been’ her just a few minutes ago. But the whole story was so immersive I found by the end I was really engaged with the characters and their stories. Spoilers for the end of The Last of Us if you’ve not played or watched the series. In the last big action piece in the Fireflies Hospital on my first play through I shot both the nurses in cold blood because I was so upset about what was happening. I like to think of myself as a ok person, at least better then the kind of guy who’d do that but in the heat of the moment I was so angry I totally empathise with Joel and his desire to kill everyone threatening Elly.
I really love the way SNW is filling in that transition period where Kirk’s this hard driving, blue flame, academy nerd, who’s out be youngest captain ever, but he’s also deeply head over heals in love with Carol. And how it becomes obvious that when Carol breaks his heart soon he’s going start acting out and pretending he’s some kind of slut during the TOS period. But we all know he’s just crying inside because the love of his life has dumped him.
Once again in no particular order: Ultimata IV - Quest of the Avatar
Sim City 2000
The Last of Us
Breath of the Wild
Trade Wars
Kingdom Hearts
Knights of the Old Republic
Civ 6
Omega - a dos game where you programmed Tanks and set them loose
And right now: Balatro
The Greatest Era of gaming was when I was between 12 and 22. And this is true for everyone no matter what their age is now. Between 12 and 22 I had enough time and energy to game all night and still go to school and none of life’s problems were stopping me
If you’ve doing it, do me a favor. Keep an eye on these guys, 'cause around the 74 minute mark, there’s gonna be a room full of grown men crying.
“I then walked over and said “hi I’m a lesbian” to the both of them. Anyways I’m married to one of them now somehow.” - This is possibly one of the most lesbian sentences I’ve ever read. Congratulations and mazel tov!
Honestly? “Make it purr, not number one”
Yeah, and before that he wrote “The Egg” and a lot of other short stories.
Check out his other writings if you like seeing how he went from writing a webcomic to full time author
I know that not most woman aren’t in to a men just for his money, but the kinda chicks who will double up on a guy like me are!
Joyous Holidays and I hope y’all have a happy new year!
Thanks again for doing this giveaway it’s always a hoot.
I’d like to throw my hat in for Miles Morales if I could. I really like the Spider-Man series even if my graphics card hates me for playing it.
And for my Happy Thought: If you’re one of the people who still hasn’t seen the new Spider-Verse movie, oh you’re gonna have a great time watching it.
Thank everybody
I have to say this one is my favourite so far.
I’ve got to second this recommendation. I’ve been using Kodi for almost 12 years and I really love its tracking. And it’s got a heap of other features as well.
• Worf hugged Alexander in “Reunion”
I simply refuse to believe this. There is no way Worf could have acknowledged Alexander’s existence long enough to hug him. But maybe this says something about my own upbringing that I rather not look at.
