    I need streaming suggestions

    I’ve been streaming a lot, like everyone else, and need more suggestions. I like quirky, funny comedies like Schitts Creek, New Girl, Brooklyn 99, and some unusual stuff like Umbrella Academy. Loved Cobra Kai, hated The Witcher. Love sitcoms like Big Bang Theory, Friends, Cheers, Mom, Young...

    Why Droid Bounty Hunters

    This may have been answered in Star Wars legends or books or something, so forgive me if this is already common knowledge. One thing I don’t understand is why are there droid bounty hunters/mercenaries like IG-88, IG-11, and Q9-0? I mean, what’s a droid going to do with money? Thanks.

    A simple question

    this may be common knowledge, but I just don’t know the answer regardless. I’ve recently discovered a couple of fan series: Star Trek New Voyages, and Star Trek Continues. Both have duplicated the look of TOS brilliantly. The sets are uncanny reproductions of the original. In every way, imho...

    There's probably a simple reason

    Silly question here. If the TARDIS translates everything, why when The Doctor says "Allonsy" does it come out in French?

    New dog question

    We just adopted a new dog. He's a sweet, wonderful 18-month-old Shepherd mix. He even gets along with our bossy poodle and cats. Issue is he came from an abusive situation. He's understandably extremely timid, although after only a week we are seeing him relax around our family. The only issue...

    Finally, I have a kid who's interested!

    It took nearly 19 years of parenthood, but I FINALLY have a kid who is interested in Star Trek - beyond only seeing the occasional movie. My youngest - aged 12 and a half - has started her long and joyful "trek" through Star Trek, starting with the original series. So far she's loving it. She...

    What's worse?

    What would be worse for a married person? To fall in love with someone who isn't your spouse, but never act on it in a sexual way. Perhaps talks on the phone, Emails, maybe even a meal here or there. Basically, you do nothing you wouldn't do with any platonic friend. or To have sex with...

    Discovered Gilmore Girls

    At my daughter's urging, I started watching GIlmore Girls on Netflix. I am now addicted. It is definitely not the show I thought it was when it was on. I thought it was more of a Melrose Place type teenybopper soap. Pleasantly surprised. Now I want to live in Stars Hollow. It's the new Mayberry.

    Favorite Holiday Movie

    Just because I'm feeling a bit holiday-ish, what are your favorite holiday movies? What do you like about them? I'll limit mine to just a few: Fred Claus - I found this really relatable and understood Fred being in the shadow of his brother, and the anger that some kids feel. Elf - Just not...

    Who's on your list of five?

    For no reason of any importance, except to see what people think and perhaps start some friendly conversation, who's on your list of five? You know what that is. It's the list of five people that you're allowed to be unfaithful with and get a pass from your significant other. Let's keep it...

    Star Trek's Euphemisms for Sex?

    Today in the 21st century, we have a lot of ways to say one is going to have sex: Take the skin boat to tuna town Give the log to the beaver park the Plymouth into the garage of love mattress mambo Give her the old pickle tickle ride the baloney pony service the clam Sweep the chimney...

    Stupid Almost Royal Question

    I'm loving the new BBC show, Almost Royal. I know that Georgie and Poppy are actors playing roles. I get that. It's a COMEDY. My question is do the people who appear with them know they are actors? The people seem genuinely confused/amused by them in their lack of understanding of American and...

    I just got a gift card, so...

    I just got a gift card for Barnes and Noble. So I'm trying to find a good book or two to pick up. Since it's a gift card, I enjoy the big books with lots of pictures like visual dictionary-type books, and so on. Does anyone know any books coming in the near future that might be enjoyable...

    This MUST have come up before, but...

    In Blink, the Doctor says regarding the Weeping Angels: "...you can't kill a stone." But I've been wondering. You can smash stones up into tiny little bits. So why can't someone go up to a Weeping Angel with a sledge hammer and just smash the crap out of it? This must have been brought up...

    "Wizard of..." Homages in OTGAP? (Spoilers)

    Again: SPOILERS!! Not so much a review thread, but I just saw Oz the Great and Powerful, and thoroughly enjoyed it. I liked looking for and finding little touches that were put in to pay respects to the original Judy Garland classic. I know I didn't catch nearly all of them. What were some...

    Help with my pissing cat!!

    I'm not kidding. My idiot cat keeps pissing on either the couch, the laundry basket, or my pants that I leave on the couch at night. Mind you, this all happens about 10 feet away from the litter box! We have two other cats who use the box religously. One even uses the toilet. So, real...
