    Sci-Fi Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire (2024)

    I think this is my major beef with most modern renditions of older movies, is that they want to pretend like the original films never existed and take things off in another direction entirely. There were reasons that older films were successful, and if you are trying to find a new audience, you...

    Drama The Blacklist

    I'd stopped watching it years ago...I'm sure all the questions I had back then (which I can't even remember) probably weren't even answered at the end...

    Drama NCIS: Sydney

    I wasn't impressed with the first episode as the characters weren't really likeable to me and didn't seem to have any redeemable traits in my opinion, but the next couple episodes seemed to grow on me. I haven't come to the point where I must watch new episodes as I have with the other...

    Sci-Fi Star Wars: Andor

    I may be the only person on the planet that hasn't signed up for Disney+ to actually watch any of these spinoff shows...

    Drama CSI: Vegas

    I really enjoyed season 1 and tuned in specifically because of Grissom. Was disappointed they didn't returned for season 2. The latest season will probably eventually grow on me, but Willows just didn't have the same draw for me as Grissom. It seems like they go into the science about as much as...

    Sci-Fi Star Trek: Picard

    That's the only reason I watched Season 1, receiving it on DVD for this past Christmas. Thought it was okay, but nothing spectacular.

    Sci-Fi Star Trek: Discovery (2017)

    I haven't seen anything but season 1, when it was being broadcast on CBS during early in the pandemic and a lack of new content on their network (I assume). Maybe I'll ask for the other seasons on DVD for Christmas this year or something.

    Drama NCIS

    I thought the same thing when I heard he'd be leaving. They have done a pretty good job of it in the most recent season after his departure, in my opinion. It is interesting to me how the NCIS spin-offs have fared, but the main show continues on.

    Sci-Fi Star Trek: Discovery (2017)

    I'm just glad that CBS finally came to their senses (or maybe because there just wasn't anything else new showing on due to the pandemic?) and started showing season 1 on the normal CBS station. Finally caught up with the first ten episodes on my DVR...

    Crossfire & Other Stories

    Doesn't look like Google is one of the stores on the distribution list for Draft2Digital. I'm not sure if it is on their list of future stores to offer or not.

    Sci-Fi Bipedal Robots as Human Sidekicks

    I personally believe we will continue to see robots as task-based servants for the foreseeable future. They may have some limited AI (making them androids), and thus be able to function in some more general home-servant capacity (thinking Rosie, from the Jetsons), but I don't see them being...

    Up in the Kansas City area, it sounds like they have decided to extended their mask mandate into January... :(
