Not a TV historian, nor do I play one... never mind. But I think Columbo may have started the trend of non-mystery mystery shows. We know from the first scene who dunnit (often from watching it happen in flashback), and the rest of the show is devoted to showing how clever the detective is.

Rewriting game text based on loose translations from Japanese to English, I saw a creature name "Rock Small Bug." My Japanese was (and is) pathetic. To the kanji dictionary! The character for "rock" could be combined with "small" to make "sand," and "bug" could also be read as "worm." Sandworm!

There are people who have sexual relationships with their cars (search "man who has sex with his car."). Now add self-driving cars, throw in some AI and...you're on to something.

My cat Oberon (as was) was a TV fan. He found the litter of puppies in Pulp Fiction. Yes, puppies.

The book is TONS better than the film (if you ask me, which you didn't). The film was quite disneyfied by Bluth and crew.
