There are old jokes about, when you walk into an empty room, saying "Computer, End Simulation" or "I know you're listening!". But just now upon entering a new space I found myself calling "Hey Google, are you listening? Alexa, are you there?" and truly, this world we built for ourselves is haunted

There is something amazing in how Mel has gone from being a footnote in both Doctor Who and Bonnie’s own career to the “seen it all” archetypal companion, *the Sarah Jane Smith figure* & a sort of ambassador for the 20th century show. Hope to see her sharing scenes with Dr Billie in short order.

The last original episode of STAR TREK aired on NBC #OTD in 1969. Kudos to the 1970s fans, who watched the reruns, bought the toys, read the fanzines, went to conventions, and helped keep the franchise alive for a decade until the movies. #StarTrek #StarTrekTOS

Big news! #FilmSky

Meanwhile, in Cardiff... #DoctorWho

PSYCHO II was released on this day in 1983 Starring Anthony Perkins and Meg Tilly, it’s pretty impressive that this movie came out 23 years after the original and is still a solid sequel. #horror #filmsky

Jonathan Joss was murdered in a hate crime. He was targeted for being gay. His house was burnt down, his dog was decapitated and displayed, and ultimately he was murdered all because of who and how he loved. If you think homophobia or anti gay doesn’t happen anymore, please open your eyes & heart

Bye, Hon. Now Ncuti's era comes to an end, how does his tenure compare to previous Doctors'?

Australian here, and yes. Without giving it all away let’s just say frontier persons needing to do whatever it takes to survive.

Amazing that when they get in courtrooms, all the big claims they make outside the courthouse to the media suddenly go away.

The kids in Stranger Things season 5

the fact most reports are leaving out that he was killed protecting his husband during a homophobic hate crime where his dead dog's skull was placed in their mailbox as a threat is leaving some important details out i think

We have Superman at home

I'm not a fan of too much lore in TV shows. Broadly, you should be allowed into a show if you haven't seen previous seasons.

For day 153 of my year long retrospective on made for TV movies that need a DVD/Blu Ray release, I am going with the 1974 fan favorite Reflections of Murder, which is a remake of Les Diaboliques, featuring Joan Hackett and Tuesday Weld as the wife and mistress of a man they'd both like to get rid of

As a small child in New Zealand I remember asking why houses in American films always had basements. Hurricanes destroying trailer parks is a cliché even to people on the other side of the planet. HOW CAN HE NOT KNOW!?

Jonathan Joss was MURDERED. Words matter here. He was MURDERED. it was a HATE CRIME because he is a gay Indigenous man. Say those words. Do not dance around it. He wasn't "killed in a shooting." He was murdered in a hate crime.

An Appreciation of Milo O'Shea, a character actor with a long list of fascinating credits and too little online buzz.

A retired coroner in Ontario was asked what he'd learned after decades on the job. "Always hold the handrail on stairs," he replied.

Someone in my craft group just casually dropped in that they were an animator on the Macra Terror.

[Adric repeats back the order] “Chicken bhuna, lamb bhuna and prawn bhuna, mushroom rice, bag of chips, keema naan and 9 poppadoms”

Can't wait for Disney's live action Pocahontas that paints indigenous people as the bad guys exclusively. Also the live action Hunchback that removes anything deemed critical of religion and frames the people who dress up colorfully as in the wrong for fighting against their persecution.

Remember, kids.
