I ended up buying all the compendiums and reading the whole series during the wait between Season 1 and 2. Very entertaining read, and still really enjoying the show.

I got to go back to the comics, but did that occur during their first interaction. Although intense and disturbing, it is kind of of a big deal for Mark's character and other future events. I'm a bit surprised if they do fully end up skipping it.

That's a bummer. Lower Deck has honestly been the best 'new' Trek ... Strange New Worlds is probably right behind it so that's good. Surprising that Lower Deck is cancelled, thought it did pretty well.

I can't remember when I started going to IGN boards... I remembered when IGN was mainly just a N64 codes/walkthrough website. Probably boards around 2000 or 2001 as ShaneMcmahon006. Mainly lurker, but enjoyed the CEB, DVD, and Halo boards. I do remember paying $20 for insider too.

My office built a new building just before the pandemic, all open office concept, no assigned cubes, no cubes at all, just rows of desks and monitors you bring your laptop to. I would have hated it if I ever had to work there with full staff. Noisy as hell, no personality to make your space your own (pictures, knick knacks, red stapler), no privacy, impossible to take a call. I've been remote since the pandemic, even switched companies and still remote. If I work for a local company some time in the future, I'd go in occasionally, but otherwise, I see no reason to ever go back. I ain't moving.... If being in the office was required, every other aspect of the role must be a 10/10 or higher to consider. Companies that are forcing RTO are taking a hit. Bleeding talent, can't retain, can't attract replacements. It's their way to low key lay off with people volunteering to quit and they don't have to pay a severance. Eventually though they lose all historical knowledge and it's going to be rough trying to build it back up.

I forget I have access to the PPVs too... I remembered it for the Royal Rumble and threw it up while I did other stuff. Might do the same tonight.

Cool, I'd give it a go. PM a link, probably won't watch until the weekend.

Any hint at genre?

No way anyone is confirmed until after November.

100% we're heading to a Seinfeld-like Finale. I thought it was one of Vince Vaughn stronger CYE appearance. Just a good story thread of being excited about his new girlfriend but mistakes what works at Disney means, lol.

There's more that will be revealed of the Viltrum race with their history, motives, and plans. All is not what it seems.

I'd watch that, looks like some stupid fun

Watched Season 2 with my Dad while on vacation. I dug it. Some of the new characters were cool, and got to dig into some old characters. I'm down for more reacher, hopefully not as long of z wait for season 3.

The planet fitness siren is a real thing, I thought it was a bit. Wtf!?

Ebon Moss-Bachrach is solid in The Bear... would not have thought of him for a super hero or The Thing, but it's intriguing to me at least. He could do something really interesting with it with the right script. Just please Marvel, take you time, make sure it's awesome.
