Those were the two I recall being discussed, but I also remember there were some 6 or 7 series under consideration.What kind of cheese are you planning to put on top?

Saw an ad for Red Moon. I really hope the OTL Russians take the hint and go to Mars. Or Proxima Centauri.Last edited by Kepler; 10-30-2019, 07:38 AM.Cornell University

Re: TV: A Succession of Watchmen in The Good Place
So it is the Apple TV series then. I wasnt too sure about it yet. I kinda liked the trailers, but it felt like it was copying too much of The Man in the High Castle (which, I guess is similar to 11.22.63 and whatever that NBC show was that dealt with time travel/alternate history (Jesus there's a huge genre of dystopian "what-if" "historic" TV)).
I'll probably try to watch it if I get the AppleTV+ subscription just because I enjoy NASA related shows (JAG S1E19 is one of my favorites, and I hated that FOX cut the Corbin Bernsen NASA show "The Cape" so quickly.)Last edited by aparch; 10-30-2019, 10:28 AM.“Demolish the bridges behind you… then there is no choice but to build again.”

* Fan boys and anti-intellectual Handies don't get your knickers in a twist, I'm right there with you; I love the movie of TPB. It is a completely different thing and not a scratch on the original but wonderful in its own way. In fact I think it's an elaborate joke by Goldman to illustrate one of the fundamental points of the "real" TPB, which is of course the tale by S. Morgenstern, and has never published. And I am still waiting for Buttercup's Baby.Last edited by Kepler; 10-30-2019, 12:32 PM.Cornell University
