I'm re-watching the 2000's reboot of BattleStar Galactica at the moment. The characters, the relationships, the metaphysical elements, the tension - they all amount to what may be the most compelling SF show of all time in my opinion. And Gaius Baltar. who looks surprisingly like my project manager, is surely one of the greatest comic creations of all time.

The Expanse for example is really good but doesn’t match the level of the ensemble cast which is up there with any show I can think of. Firefly gets close out of the SF shows, but didn’t get a chance (I’m still upset lol.)

They speak every language known to man, can imitate US accents, so they're even taking roles away from our poor US actors and actresses left and right!
We should build a wall somewhere in the Atlantic so they can't swim over here anymore. I don't know what to do about planes, though...

" And what / how we watch tv content on them " ( ? ) ..
Sorry if this is ot, and hope it becomes another topic, more clearly introduced by someone more knowledgeable than myself..: ) .....
But lately I've been looking for a replacement for my 12+ year old plasma, and it's been an eye opener.
In the last month, I learned that WalMart has purchased Vizio corp. for around $ 2 BB, and the word is that if you thought you saw too many ads before, just buy any new ' smart tv ' tv now and try to disable the Google os and the ads with it......
I may just hang on to this plasma.......

It's well worth watching, although very different. A much slower pace, for one thing.

The Fall
I amend my statement to United Kingdom sickos are the worst.

I'm watching Animal Kingdom on Amazon Prime.

Ciao House on the Food Network. The current series is all being filmed in Puglia, Italy. This is where my wife grew up and where I just came back from. Puglia is really getting a lot of attention these days. E.g. The G7 will be hosting their event there in June. I believe this will be the biggest event ever held in that area.
Funny, but when I was there back there in early May, none of the locals knew about the G7 (but they did know that Justin Timberlake got married there, and Madonna stays in the area often!). I asked them if they wondered why so many of their roads\highways were being repaired. They didn't know, so I had to tell them: Italian leaders in Rome didn't wish for world leaders to see some of the poor conditions that exist in Southern Italy. Note the same thing happened to San Francisco, CA\USA, the last place the G7 was held. I.e. the city leaders found a way to get the homeless and\or drug addicts off the street (well at least for a week).

don't forget all the whining and shouting...
My father used to fall asleep in a chair watching Seinfeld. The TV commercials used to be louder than programming, but he'd sleep thru the commercials and the Seinfeld chaos level would wake him up. I learned to hate that show. I was a quick learner.
I can't blame Seinfeld (entirely), but I didn't have a TV for 14 years. Someone in college housing always had one. My father wouldn't buy a color TV, so I did not know The Wizard of Oz was the first Technicolor movie, beginning in the Oz part of the movie. I was mistakenly disgusted Ted Turner had ruined another classic b&w movie by colorizing it, giving people purple eyes & red hair. I stated my disappointment in a house in college and I was looked at like I was from another planet then asked if I had ever seen TWOO before. They enlightened me.
Then I worked for a newspaper for 4-1/2 years, and saw the front page news the night before, so I still didn't need a TV. One night I got invited to happy hour with some coworkers and discovered MTV (I wasn't missing much). I wanted to know why a guy was lip-synch singing while driving a car. "It's a music video!" I said I wanted to see the musicians, not that. Then Michael Jackson appeared, groping his crotch and I said 'Eeew, who's that?' 'That's Michael Jackson'. "What happened to the cute little kid?"
I stopped going to ChiCHi's Happy Hour & going to The Jazz Showcase in Chicago instead.
Got married, & yep, my wife had a TV & intended on keeping it.

Well, I like TV and movies, I always have. Even when I was in college.
Right now I’m watching The Boys. It pairs well with Last Week Tonight or The Daily Show. They’ve stopped satirizing superheroes and now it’s satirizing real life.
