I thought this one was a tonal mess - so much so that I was convinced the whole thing was going to turn out to be a training simulation or something.

This show is usually so good at setting a clear mood, but this one was so all over the place, I didn't know how seriously to take the situations the crew(s) found themselves in.

Before all the BS with CBS News happened, I really thought that Skydance was the best of the potential buyers that were floating around at the time.

He's got a steep hill to climb, but this might be a positive sign.

I'll take droid rights seriously as soon as Star Wars does. 😂

If the Dominion has had any sort of reformation at all over the last several hundred years, I would think that freeing the Jem'Hadar would have been near the top of the "to do" list.

It hardly seems fair to compare them to robots.

He's with the Prophets now

you extremist

It's lashes all the way down.

It's the internet. There's going to be "backlash" regardless.

Though to be honest, people seem pretty high on SFA, both here an in other online spaces I visit.

I think there's a lot of potential in the concept, and the trailer looked great.

Either way, I'd much rather talk about the show than the people talking about the show.

Two crews of CFL officials will take part in NFL training camp joint practices starting on August 13. No NFL officials will travel to Canada this year but the two leagues will explore future opportunities for a northward exchange in the future.

I had no idea such a program had ever existed...

Yeah, that has to be it, even though that's not what the Doctor actually says.

Much has (justifiably) been said about the merger, and the path to how we got here, but everyone seems to agree that David Ellison is in the business because he loves movies - the whole company was practically a vanity project, rather than a moneymaking scheme.

Yeah, I think the new Paramount TV Studios is basically the Skydance studio, renamed - the Old Paramount shut down their version of Paramount Television Studios about a year ago.

This is barely Star Trek-related news, but we now have confirmation that the franchise will remain under CBS Studios (which is pretty much the only division that hasn't had a change in management under the new regime).

With that bit of business out of the way, the next step will be for them to make a decision on the renewal of the Secret Hideout deal, which is set to expire next year.

My only gripe there is his on earth does the child remote control the typewriter

That's right up there with, "how/why is he looking for his mummy if he was already dead when the nanogenes found him?"

The Redblacks should be easy pickings for the Bombers, so Winnipeg will probably lose.

It looks like Hamilton/Saskatchewan and Montreal/BC will be the marquee matchups this week.

and will the Bombers keep the trend going?

Nnnnnnope.

Once again, I had other obligations preventing me from watching the game, but what a heartbreaker.

The highlight reel that I watched made it look like an okay game, but the 3 Down Nation summary suggested that the Bombers fell a sleep for most of the second half.

I don't know if we're hitting the panic button just yet, but our fingers are hovering.

Memory Alpha has a breakdown that must be pretty comprehensive.

I've used it a bit. It's fine, though these things that act through browser extensions are understandably met with skepticism. The e-transfers seem pretty useful to those who use the service.

I'm all for the Alto project being a runaway success and spurring nationwide high-speed rail development, make no mistake.

I like Stashwick well enough, but I didn't think Shaw was handled well at all. He abandoned his post for a significant chunk of the season, sacrifices himself, and then in the end we find out he secretly respected Seven all alone, and just didn't tell her, because he's kind of an asshole?

And while his origin story is interesting, it's also a warmed-over Ben Sisko plot point.

If they were to ever proceed with some sort of *Enterprise-*G series, I'd rather they do it without Matalas. I've had enough of his vision for the franchise.
