When Cohen came in to see Freeze this morning he could have at least said "good news Hugh, my car started. today."

I will only state the following on this issue. All Kimmel had to do is not address this particular situation. Believe it or not, there was a time when late night hosts avoided topics such as this. I haven't watched late night shows since the pandemic, but some of these shows got much more political than they ever needed to be or should be. These hosts got used to getting away with saying anything they wanted with little to no blowback. Sooner or later, the pendulum will swing the other way, and there are repercussions. It's the same way if most of us were to start sprouting off on social media, some of us could face repercussions from our employers depending on the topic at hand. I this case, horrible late night TV ratings also give cover for this decision by Disney/ABC.

Yes, but the captain in Alien Covenant managed to be even worse. Every decision he made was horrible from start to finish.

The impression was that it was Higgins all along. But they never did straight up come out and admit it. Not that I recall.


I wonder if they decided to float the idea that it was Higgins since the man who voiced Masters (Orson Welles) died around 1985.
RoboCop was filmed in Dallas
RoboCop 2 was filmed in Houston
RoboCop 3 was filmed in Atlanta
The 3rd one is one of worst sequels of all time, and it did get a wide release.

Star Trek V


I have have warmed to this movie over the years. I didn't really care much about it when it came out, but I appreciate it more now. The scenes with Kirk, Spock and McCoy were always great but Paramount really dropped the ball on its budget and care. The effects and cinematography feel more like a Cannon film than the other ST films in that part of the series.
I didn't expect to see Gene Hackman towards the end of The Mexican.

watching as they have it free on the roku app. In season 4 now. Just saw the Christmas Eve episode where they get stranded on an island. That one and Higgins’ surprise party were great episodes. Favorite line so far:


Great Christmas episode. Another great one is Love for Sale Boat where Mac "sells" a boat to Rick.

I remember these. They were around most of the 80's. I remember some Mountain Dew bottles like this in the late 80's/ early 90's as well.
The 2012 ND team would have never made it to the final if there had been a 12 team tournament that year.
