  1. At a certain point there's not much of a distinction between a show made in the 90s and a current show that is set in the 90s. If you watch an old show or watch a show set in an old time, you're going to instinctively understand that technology will be different.
  2. It's also funnier because it's left to the imagination. At one point Frasier goes to meet who you think is Maris, and then you think you see her but it's actually the cleaning lady behind her. Doesn't work with an actor playing her.
  3. Doesn't matter that it's white (do you not know any actual black people? Many dig that show), and I prefer shows with audiences. There's no sitcom with a live audience that feels old because it's like that. If anything, because it's a stage, you're more likely to get stronger actors like Caroll O'Connor and Jason Alexander who feed off the audience. This argument needs to be laid to rest. NYC was expensive then. That's not age; you just have to accept that the show isn't filled with nuclear physicists. If you want the jokes to not "age," then do a period piece like That 70s Show. I understood Goodfellas despite the fact that there's a payphone in it and when he stood her up at a date, Pesci never texted him.
  4. I look forward to it. I'm on 3-2 and was kicking ass until I chased a lizard off a cliff.
  5. The episode where the AC is broken so they all are having weird daydreams is so good. Though I still don't understand the ending when Jimmy is looking at that globe with presumably the whole station in there.
  6. My man. Frasier stands the test of time as well. NBC must have been masturbating furiously to having both Seinfeld and Frasier air on their network. I used to love Married with Children and thought it was the best show ever because everyone cheered when a character entered the room, so that MUST mean those characters are the best. But the few episodes I've seen since seemed not that great? Maybe I'm catching all the bad episodes, or maybe it's another in a long line of things I watched back in the day that I didn't realize wasn't that great. I enjoyed some Office episodes but I still don't get why it's as popular as it is. Not really bothered by it, but it wasn't that funny, and then it got REALLY not funny when Michael left.
  7. Nah, it doesn't fall into the, "Obvious moral, strings play, crowd goes aww and then applauds," trap. HI is okay. "The Look" is the highlight for me.
  8. Boy Meets World didn't fall into that trap as much until it went full-on soap opera. And Dinosaurs was good shit.
  9. So if you're done with Spidey/Demon's Souls/Astro's Playroo/Sackboy or whichever combination you bought, the next ones are Destruction AllStars in I think February, Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart and Returnal sometime Q1 methinks, with Gran Turismo 7 slated for the first half of the year. God of War and Horizon Forbidden West are slated for the end of 2021 (I think the former is probably more at risk for a delay due to COVID).
  10. I really want it but I've thought about just waiting for the PS5 version, whenever that is, and canceling my PS4 preorder, but I feel like I should wait for reviews to see if there's a significant performance drop or if it's perfectly playable in its last-gen state.
  11. I'm trying not to get my hopes up for GA since Republicans won more votes in total during the general. I don't even care that Dems didn't do well in the 08 runoff because the circumstances were way different; it's just that every time my hopes go up for a third conservative party or Republicans not voting for non-presidential candidates (like what looked like could happen in 16), I'm ALWAYS disappointed.
  12. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO WWE Hall of Famer Pat Patterson passes away WWW.WWE.COM WWE is saddened to learn that WWE Hall of Famer Pat Patterson has passed away at age 79.
  13. Es gab eine Zeit, in der ich nicht verstanden habe, was Sie geschrieben haben. Ich verstehe das jetzt jedoch. Meistens, weil Scheiße alles im Kopf ist.
  14. Looks like there's no standard, so I must have read this a while ago and not remembered that the word isn't uniform. spanish+gender+neutral+pronoun - Google Search WWW.GOOGLE.COM
  15. tbh, I didn't know English was a Germanic language. O_O But my g/f (@Keyser_Soze) speaks good German so now I know what our dinner convo will be.
  16. Maybe I misinterpreted, but isn't elle the gender neutral pronoun there? Ella/El are female/male? @Joe-bi-wan Kenobi, you're our only hope.
  17. Thanks for the answers. I can kind of see this in general since people will use 'they' when saying something like, "I don't know who ate my food in the employees' lounge, but they shouldn't have," or even to refer to this, "I just familiarized myself with how someone trans wants to be called, and I'll call them whatever they want," and it's usually if you don't know who someone is or are talking in the general sense. I'd rather just use a new term entirely if APA/Websters/whatever could think of one since if you know the person, it still seems strange to use a singular 'they' when the most commonly used way to use it is for multiple people, but until then, if that's how the person wants to be called, then that's what they're called.
