He was the villain in The Phantom and in 1941 off the top of my head. But he died in 2023.

Watched the last episode of Sherlock & Daughter. Fun series, overall. Hope it gets a second season; they wrapped the plot up that Holmes and Daughter had to unravel (and the murder that starts the story in motion is solved and the villain hoisted by their own petard (with a little help), but left enough lingering elements to fuel further stories. I ended up growing to like Dougray Scott's Moriarty as well, as the character's later appearance moved a bit away from his intro which felt a little to broad to me. Like the character was an actor and not a university professor.

I guess winning the popular vote by 1.5 percentage points could be considered 'overwhelming' for sufficiently large versions of the number 1.5.

Bit of a one-two punch losing Sly Stone and Brian Wilson. RIP.

Fixed it for you.

I actually have those discs with the laserdisc transfer. You can play around with the settings and get it watchable, but it wasn't really worth trying to get them from where they're stored at for a subpar experience.

Went to free comic book day on Saturday and picked up some free and non-free comics. Sunday was the 4th so I watched the original Star Wars (well as close to it as i could get, the special edition). Today I just worked.
