The Long Extinguished Light Illumines the Machine
Seth MacFarlane redeemed himself as a writer last night with “Lasting Impressions”, a new episode of The Orville much better than the previous, also written by MacFarlane.

Deadly Class "Sink with California" Reaction Thread
Here we are, at the end. In case it was obvious from my opening sentences to these threads I’ve been over this show for weeks now and this is where the road ends for me with this show.

Star Wars in Greyscale: A New Hope
I first watched A New Hope when I was six years old. My big sister and I was at my aunt’s house during one of the brief periods where she had cable, I was sick and we found the marathon right before they started it (Incidentally, these were the same condition when I first watched The Princess Bride).
