Thursday night sci-fi night!
Spoiler alert, spoiler alert!!! Obi-Wan: they needed better writers. The finale was OK, and I really liked the light saber fight. But so many shows have such a good writing, Game of Thrones, better call Saul, Stranger Things, etc., etc. The writing on the show was really lackluster. Lots of plot holes. But it was good to see Obi wan get his mojo back. Orville: One of the better episodes, but heavy on the modern day politics. Lots of big laughs, but still kind of Star Trekish. Season one was the best season, but this last episode was pretty good. Star Trek, strange New Worlds: by far the best of the Bunch, great writing , even better special effects and CGI. Not at this episode relied on special effects or CGI at all. The guy who plays captain pike has very similar mannerisms to John Hamm, in all the good ways. I think this is the best Star Trek series of all time, including the original. |

The one thing that has been bothering me the last few years is the tendency for these shows to seemingly go through an inclusionary checklist. Every show has a gay/trans/non-binary/etc. character and/or touches on something political. Sometimes I just want to watch a show and be entertained without all of the rhetoric and forced consumption. You can't even watch Voltron the animated series without some of that stuff being thrown in. It's not personal, but sometimes movies and shows are used to escape the day-to-day nonsense and these writers/producers make it damn near impossible to avoid.

And we lean pretty far left when it comes to social stuff, but the identity politics and all that, Latin people saying they don't like LatinX, but white folks insisting it be used, etc. |

He's a funny, neurotic character who happens to be gay. Not the other way around. |

Let's move this along and get back to the topic at hand. Watched Hustle on Netflix last week and it was a decent watch.
