kirottu Posted January 11, 2019 Posted January 11, 2019 Orville does some really good Star Trek fan service. Two Star Trek doctors at the same time? Don't mind if I do. 2 This post is not to be enjoyed, discussed, or referenced on company time.
Hurlshort Posted January 11, 2019 Posted January 11, 2019 *snip* I agree with a lot of what you are saying, particularly making quality TV instead of event TV and keeping it simple. But I will say that Breaking Bad is a once in a generation type show, so that is probably too high a bar to set. I also think Rome and Deadwood were perfect as limited run shows. In fact I wish we had a lot more 2-3 season shows instead of all these long running ones. I also just want most of my TV to be fun. We need more Psych, Monk, and Veronica Mars.

SonicMage117 Posted January 11, 2019 Posted January 11, 2019 History Channel has an X-Files type show it seems. Scratch that. Reminds me more of a film called Fire In The Sky. 2 Just what do you think you're doing?! You dare to come between me and my prey? Is it a habit of yours to scurry about, getting in the way and causing bother? What are you still bothering me for? I'm a Knight. I'm not interested in your childish games. I need my rest. Begone! Lest I draw my nail...
Raithe Posted January 11, 2019 Posted January 11, 2019 To be fair, it does seem that Irons played that role as if it were a British panto on stage. Hm, of course, it's very hard to explain British panto to people outside the UK.... "Cuius testiculos habeas, habeas cardia et cerebellum."
Hurlshort Posted January 11, 2019 Posted January 11, 2019 We need more Scrubs and Chuck and Parks and Rec. Yep. I'm always surprised how hard it is to find something that isn't MA on Netflix and Amazon. I like a good serious show now and then, but when I'm putting my feet up in the family room after a long day, I'm usually just looking for something fun to watch that I don't have to exit out of when a kid wanders by. Hulu saves the day with that, since I can watch Brooklyn 99 and The Orville.
InsaneCommander Posted January 11, 2019 Posted January 11, 2019 History Channel has an X-Files type show it seems. Scratch that. Reminds me more of a film called Fire In The Sky. That is good because the new episodes of X-Files were disappointing. Well, except the comedy ones, but that says something about whether it should be brought back or no. Btw, I tried watching a Romanek something "movie" in Netflix. For some reason I imagined it would be like Fire in the Sky, but it is just garbage. 1

Thanks for reminding me. Just a couple days ago I thought to rewatch Rome again. At least season 1. The second season felt a bit rushed to me. 1 "only when you no-life you can exist forever, because what does not live cannot die."

That's because it was. Rushed, I mean. No mind to think. No will to break. No voice to cry suffering.

While I do want to see this, I'd like it if this series does so well that someone finally releases the 1978-78 series PROJECT U.F.O. based on the same infestigations too. 2 I cannot - yet I must.

injurai Posted January 11, 2019 Posted January 11, 2019 Is that supposed to be the History Channels big new show to replace Vikings as it wraps up this season? 1

I visited von Däniken's Mystery Park in Switzerland and once met the guy at one of his "lectures" for some ancient aliens fun, I even have an autographed copy of one of his books somewhere. These ancient astronaut guys are as hilarious in real life as they are on TV. 4 No mind to think. No will to break. No voice to cry suffering.

Gfted1 Posted January 12, 2019 Posted January 12, 2019 I love Ancient Aliens too but I ride the raggedy line of being entertained and "C'mon, everything in our history cant be tied back to aliens"...or can it? 2 "I'm your biggest fan, Ill follow you until you love me, Papa"

If you ask them, the answer is yes. Even the porn industry was created by aliens. Edit: I think the idea is that everything that happened in the history of mankind was done by Aliens.

If you ask them, the answer is yes. Even the porn industry was created by aliens. It's the watch it to be entertained, see what can be great visuals of rather obscure parts of the world, want to scream out that a hypothesis is not proof, and ponder on if they just have a massive inferiority complex because humanity has apparently achieved nothing on its own, merely by the aid of something else. 2 "Cuius testiculos habeas, habeas cardia et cerebellum."

I'm honestly not sure if any live action hero show will surpass it. I posted about this a couple of weeks ago but nobody seemed interested. Please don't spoil. I'm recording the episodes so I can binge-watch them all at once. Ahhh probably just the holiday craze lol Don't worry no spoilers here!

I also like watching this show, but @Raithe you hit it right on the head. Massive inferiority complex. The aliens are everything, we are nothing. And the cliche subtext: they are going to save us from our own stupidity. I always wonder, if we couldn't have evolved naturally and someone else had to have created us, then why not the same for the aliens? So who created them?
