This Week Nov 18-24 2024
Added 2024-11-21 01:19:49 +0000 UTC
This week we're checkin out Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King Extended Editon, School of Rock, starting Seinfeld Season 4, an ep of classic Trek TOS and more Trek TNG Season 6! I'm excited to watch them all!
For the Trekkers/Trekkies here-- what other TOS eps are important/referenced in Season 6/7?
We are getting so much rain here it's crazy! I feel like it should be snow, but I'm sure that will come soon enough! Anyone have snow yet?
I got a new car this week! Well-- it's a used car, but new to me! I have been driving around in what my mom says is an "embarrassing car" -- the back bumper flew off in that blizzard a couple years ago, and... I may or may not have duct taped my hood down when the latch broke and it kept flying up while I was driving. For the record, my Dad said "that's exactly what I would've done" π A couple weeks ago the check engine light came on and I thought "ok, it's time" ππ
THANK YOU FOR BEING HERE! You guys are truly the best. I am so grateful to you for being here, and for joining me to chill and watch great stuff β‘
I hope everyone has a great week! β‘β‘
xoxo
Jen β‘

@warcrimes Have you looked through Jen's back catalog? Firefly is there. Chernobyl was awesome. The IT Crowd S1 & S2 (so far). I've got so much catching up to do in the back library. Literally years worth. (π₯³)

It's snowing here in northern Illinois right now and it's coming in sideways with the heavy wind. Great day to stay indoors.

We got our first snow here in Mid Michigan last night. You can still see the grass popping through so it will probably be gone today or maybe by tomorrow. Glad you got a new car! Having the hood fly up while you're driving is crazy! Me and my cousin had that happen once while on the highway, scary. We used rope and bungee cords for ours though.

Sorry to hear that. I am still doing plenty of other stuff
Jen M
2024-11-21 14:15:43 +0000 UTC
I did a poll on YouTube and it was decided to finish TNG and then decide if I will watch DS9
Jen M
2024-11-21 14:15:28 +0000 UTC
Jen's said many times she will watch those movies after she finishes TNG π
Ian
2024-11-21 13:18:01 +0000 UTC
Ah! Good! Maybe some ST:TNG movies then!

I think, Jen, that you are good with leaving the rest of ST:TOS behind. You could/should start on the Movies for TOS though, and get through those and the ST:TNG Movies before deciding on if you are going to go into DS9 or Voyager. Or, maybe take a little break from Star Trek and try some other things. Cough(Arcane).

I think if Jen even just does Emissary parts 1 and 2 after chain of command and before birthright. The rest can be watched later
Brett Delbridge
2024-11-21 08:00:38 +0000 UTC
You don't need to watch TNG and DS9 concurrently, finish TNG and the movies and then devote yourself exclusively to DS9.
No snow here in southern Nova Scotia. Where I live we are lucky with snow, last winter I only shoveled twice.
Andrew Roach
2024-11-21 07:32:48 +0000 UTC
I haven't seen what your decision is on DS9. Are you planning on throwing some of those in between TNG? I really would not suggest waiting until after TNG, since they did air concurrently for a little while and there is a little bit of overlap, IIRC. It's only 1 1/2 seasons worth of overlap.

Relics will be a favorite of yours I think.
In LA we're supposed to get a "atmospheric river bomb cyclone" thingy this weekend. Good time to leave the car outside the garage to wash it off a little.

Wanna hear how ridiculously bad Americans are at the metric system? I once learned that I am 200 cm tall, so that works out to be about 30 cm per foot. That's the hoops I have to leap through to figure out distance when anyone from the rest of the world mentions centimeters. Worse is that I just treat meters like yards and just ignore the remaining 3 inches or so until we're talking about more than 4 meters then I add a foot. π€¦π½ββοΈ

Congrats on the new ride! Can you tell us the year/make/model? Always curious and never judgemental; if it gets you from point A to B reliably, it's a good car.
Glad you're checking out more TOS Trek! I really should do that sometime. I grew up on the original series watching with my mom, but it's been too long since I've last seen any episodes, besides your edited reactions.

I've loved the LOTR journey with you, it's at least a year since I sat down and watched them uninterrupted from beginning to end so I was due. I predict you will love School of Rock.
Congrats on your new car!

An awesome week. Congrats on your new used car. Return of the King Extended is the ultimate. I like School of Rock -- watched it many times --especially because I have kids who liked it back in the day before they were grown. Always up for Seinfeld episodes or TOS. I am not as infatuated with Relics as some Trek fans are, but will definitely watch your reaction.

Jen, An important Star Trek Original Series episode which you'll need to see before you react to the Star Trek TNG films is, "Metamorphosis" which was S2 E9 of the original series.
Yes, we've had snow here in the North East of England.
I'll be away on the 29th and 30th of November due to a family bereavement, my sister's husband passed away after a long illness.
Congratulations on your new car, Jen! π
Take care and much love from the U.K.

What a great, exciting line-up! And an unexpected TOS Trek. π₯³
Beyond hyped for ROTK. School of Rock is a great laugh and contains tons of classic rock.. Yes, Zep, etc.
No snow yet but it feels close. Awesome re new wheels! Drive safe. β₯
Thank you for your service Ole' Clunky! It's off to the big scrap yard in the sky for you, pal.

What's that? Jen will be watching The Name of the Rose (1986), starring Sean Connery and Christian Slater (as well as Salieri)? What great news! :-)

Yay itβs so cool that you went for TOS A Rose by Any Other Name before watching TNG Relics. I wonβt say more since I donβt know if you watched them yet, but this definitely solidifies your cred as a real Trekkie!
Paul Hess
2024-11-21 01:36:41 +0000 UTC
Say, did I mention that time I was walking down the street in a blizzard a couple of years ago, and this back bumper flew off a car and hit me in the head?

For TNG:
Relics is good. Chain of Command pt1&2, Rascals, and Descent for Season 6.
Descent pt2, Gambit, The Pegasus, Lower Decks, and Preemptive Strikes for Season 7.
