If this means Resurrected George Plympton than I'm here for it.

In the absence of the now-deleted original post, the prompt was "You've just inherited a movie theater. What's your first double feature?"
This scenario is my dream, by the way.

Sean Lock was a mad genius, and watching him not just defeat but demoralize Jon Richardson both times they played this are some of the funniest moments I've ever seen on television.

...is she not aware that "all" doesn't indicate a specific number? Sure, it doesn't say "two gender" but it doesn't say "117 gender," either. It just says, "Hey, you, you can poop here." But, you know, politely.

See, now THAT sounds like it's up my alley.

It's unnecessary, like when DC shoved the Sue Dibny thing in everyone's faces in Identity Crisis and then wouldn't shut up about it for YEARS. It's all "Look at us, this isn't YOUR FATHER'S [whatever the thing is], this isn't for kids, it's ADULT." Only the juvenile scream about how adult they are.

I want Samurai and Some Cowboys in Outer Space. No need for sexual violence, implied or explicit in... well, ANY of my entertainment, that's why I don't like most "prestige" TV shows, for instance, but I especially don't want it in my Flash Gordon By Way of Kurosawa pastiche, thanks.

Yup, a Star Wars rape scene is definitely a No vote for me, then. Hard pass.

I didn't dislike Gabriel Luna in that, per se, but genuinely the only characters I liked in it were Smarmy Robot, Space Kwai Chang Caine, and Guy with All the Guns Guy.
Everyone keeps saying it's good but I struggle w/ giving a show a chance when I didn't like the title character's whole damn movie

I think all that feeds into why people were so into the mystique of Johnny Carson's often quite private personal life - you got so little of *him* on the Tonight Show. He was mostly an MC, there to prod guests for stories and laugh at their jokes, both things he was great at.

So many of those early, full-page Sunday strips meet every definition of Fine Art. I could spend days wandering through a gallery of just those "Walt and Skeezix on a Sunday walk" Gasoline Alley pages.

Agreed, though not as weird as those guys over on Thunderbirds.

Amazing how many companies tried to chase that Polly Pocket / Mighty Max dollar.

Sadly, it wasn't very sturdy but while it lasted it was AMAZING.

I'd play this on an Apple IIe in computer club after school, and like so many others, I never got past the Babel Fish.
I'd also play a Star Trek text adventure a lot, which started off fun but then got boring, so I'd end the game by setting my phaser to k!ll and incinerating one of the crew.
