Inferno is peak Doctor Who. It's one of the absolute best stories in the show's history.

It's awesome that Paul Darrow has such a big role in Doctor Who and the Silurians. There's a few scenes where it's just him and he even gets a pretty intense death scene in the final episode.

Glad to see Sagat and C. Viper join a rather unremarkable SF6 roster, but man, they really need to bring back Dudley.

This looks awesome. Nice twist on the Friday the 13th NES game.

Asimov's robot stories are definitely relevant to the current discourse on the use of AI in our society. It's worrisome that there are no Law of Robotics type regulations in place, and as a practical matter the GOP's "Big Beautiful Bill" bans state governments from imposing them altogether.

Completing my journey through Isaac Asimov's Baley and Olivaw novels, I immensely enjoyed The Robots of Dawn.Key returning characters, such as Dr. Fastolfe and Gladia, have prominent roles in the story, and the short story Liar! is a significant foil as well as a source of mythology within the text.

Reread Asimov's The Naked Sun and ended up enjoying it much more than The Caves of Steel, though there are way too many instances of Jehoshaphat! The minimizing of R. Daneel Olivaw role is questionable, but the story flows much better and the novel is much more coherent than the subsequent entry.
