TV, or not TV, that is the question

Re: TV, or not TV, that is the question

Didn't I read something about Paramount going after the crowd-founded Star Trek stuff?

Some of it, but not all of it. I think it depends upon if the timelines and such are going to conflict with their official Star Trek show that will be on CBS starting sometime next year. There was one movie in particular that they're going after with ferocity because the producers started, basically, mouthing off about being the most authentic Star Trek show going now.

That movie is all crowd-funded. Ray Wise is also in that terrible God's Not Dead sequel(if you don't know, lucky you), so he'll do anything for a pay check, and presumably not a very big one either.

Watching a show right now and I see a woman who I recognized from something else, but couldn't place her. At any rate, this had me on IMDB to look for info, and then I followed a chain, so on and so forth, until I came across a Star Trek title I didn't recognize. Recognizing it as fan fiction, I just decided to look at the cast list. Either these people who have had fairly successful acting careers are working on the cheap or these fanfic movies are getting a lot more funding than ever before. This one has Ray Wise in a lead role, and a few other notable names in support. Crowd source funding, is my guess.

Hammer: given your last point, that's why I stated my theory. It's bold, crazy, and ties up all loose ends that NEED to be tied up, at this point. Big risk, big reward for viewer reaction.

The Ranch on Netflix. A laugh track with Sam Elliot. Horrors! I'm giving it one episode.

Up to ep 5. Sam Elliot, Debra Winger, & Ashton Kutcher who is also the Executive Producer.

6 on a scale of 10.

Americans:

My off the wall theory is that Elizabeth and Philip take out Gabriel and the old lady, after they are found out by their neighbor, and they either go into hiding (THEY COULD BE ANY OF US!!!!!-esque) or they defect. I don't think they're taking out Paige. Under any circumstances, the Pastor and his wife are cooked at this point.

Jeopardy is having fun with April 1^st today.

In a subtle way, which is neat.

Alex Trebek walks out at the start of the show in shorts. They pan away for a few moments, and he is in a full suit.

You look at the contestants, they pan away, you look back, all their scores are backwards, they pan away again, then all the scores are the right way again.

They give you a glimpse of the board, and there is something different there, then you look back and it's the same.

I wont say whether he is single or not but this is definitely a situation I have never seen him in before. Oh and the Riddler has gone full on nutso...not campy nutso like "Cross me and I will eat your face" nutso

IIRC, end of season 2. If you're telling me Bruce is dead and Jim is single I'll start up again. I deeply miss Cobblepot.

Edit: S2, Ep 8 was my breaking point, but it had been building a while.

Potential spoilers:

Cobblepot is back. Bruce is not dead, but he's gotten darker. I haven't finished S2 yet but he might be single based on the what Wiki said about the final episode.

When did you quit? Before the Rise of the Villains arc?

Oh, yeah, it went stinker city a while back. Which really s-cked because I loved it.

Gotham would have survived if they killed Bruce (an alt history we can all believe in) and did not allow Jim to have a love interest.

You've given up on Gotham?
