Sadly, at $450, I’ll probably have to wait a couple years for a discount. #NintendoSwitch2

James Earl Jones has died. May the Force, Mufasa, and a magical cornfield be with you. 😔 https://t.co/prTIcKQ17j

#StarTrekDiscovery (2/2) only average from a storytelling standpoint (the acting remained excellent). A solid 2-part finale, though. Average score (S1E1-12, S2): 4.04/5; (the rest): 3.42/5.
And now, let the "craft" spinoff series theorizing commence! https://t.co/R7U3AHZ5VU

#StarTrekDiscovery (1/2) I loved the uniqueness of the show at the start, but then they retconned the entire premise at the end of S1 (viewers probably didn't think it was "Trek" enough). And although I'd rank S2 as one of the 3 ST seasons ever, it was https://t.co/R7U3AHZ5VU

I was *wondering* when he'd show up, 'cause, you know, ya canna have an Enterprise without 'im. #StrangeNewWorlds https://t.co/u49lFwTNbu

I really thought the new manager would be someone else. But everyone seems happy where they are, so I'm happy, too. #TedLasso https://t.co/EwVPMG9CFI

Despite me enjoying seasons 1 & 2 (more science and exploration than politics) more than 3 & 4 (WAY more politics than exploration), I actually scored each of the last two seasons higher then the first two, which really surprised me. #ForAllMankind https://t.co/nQkNWYAeok

I really hope they all bring Catherine down a couple dozen pegs or so. #GreysAnatomy https://t.co/lnGj7OgUBC

Celia and Christina have some PIPES. 🎶 "...Voices will rise \ through space and \ through time..." #StrangeNewWorlds https://t.co/3NLmAyJmYJ

The pieces are now in place to fulfill my post-S3E1 predication about the future of Richmond. #TedLasso https://t.co/wRR5OyN2lJ

Let's do this. #StarTrekDiscovery https://t.co/BExBRSsjmz

I thought they'd just do a "placeholder" season post-strike & save the S6 plan for S7, but the last 3 eps make me believe they stuck with the orig story & dispensed with the usual slow-burn format—the reveals have been unnaturally swift. #TheRookie https://t.co/cy8lzWaZWs

I was really hoping my prediction when that last scene started wouldn't end up being correct. #ForAllMankind https://t.co/ZFbqIjblPI

Across the years and all the series, Star Trek is often best when it deals with exploration—of the human psyche. This is a prime example. #StrangeNewWorlds https://t.co/dUN0YsD7xl

Not really sure why the KGB thing would be a surprise; we already knew about that from the phone-number card she was given. #ForAllMankind https://t.co/gCeF62easD

[Dashing Dave @dashblurbs]

The final scene was particularly inspired. (Viewers who'd never seen STLD must've thought they'd drank too much Romulan ale before the show. Even *I* was about half a minute away from searching "Paramount+ video file splicing error.") #StrangeNewWorlds https://t.co/uEp2SbrzuP

Take a crew from Now, mix in cartoons from Later, add a dash of direction from ...slightly-less-Later, and you get one of the most unique (and possibly best) episodes in franchise history. "TOS..." 😉 #LowerDecks #Enterprise #TNG #TOS #StrangeNewWorlds https://t.co/uEp2SbrzuP

It was her idea in the first place, so I don't see any moral quandary in the decision. #StarTrekDiscovery https://t.co/Cs4kBGCUpq

It's a push door, Tina—it's a PUSH door! (And a great ending.) #BobsBurgers https://t.co/HpIuzek3wM

[Dashing Dave @dashblurbs]

Such a brilliantly creative plot in this one! (p.s. The name of the show should rhyme with Acropolis.) #Krapopolis https://t.co/1FHEXcJJGo
