Myself and others felt that for a whole network called G4. A good amount of fans really liked the reboot. It just never took off like Comcast wanted it to for how much they invested.

When we get true AI I have no doubt our robotics technology will be a lot more advanced by that point. Majority of people aren't going to really care if it's handcrafted. Plus a lot of stuff is sold every single day that says it was handcrafted when it was machine made.

Source? I'm not saying it's not true but it's good to see a source. Most likely it dropped dramatically because the pandemic really slowed or halted production then limited it for quite a while. No point in pumping if you don't need it.

> The potential series, which is produced in-house at CBS Studios, revolves around legendary talk radio host and happily divorced “Poppa” (Wayans) who has his point of view challenged at work when a new female co-host is hired and at home where he finds himself still parenting his adult son (Wayans Jr.), a brilliant dreamer who is trying to pursue his passion while being a responsible father and husband.
Going for the Boomer knows best kind of show with the Xennial not having their act together. They are definitely go for the old CBS crowd.

They did the same thing on Happy Together in 2018.

I can understand not getting in cars with strangers but it's odd to not take rides from people you know and trust.

No but you can make it seem that way if you pay off reporters.

Reply to Cancelling 'Reaper' after 2 seasons is still one of the worst decisions ever made by a TV Network by sundaynightheat99
Here is a Reaper promo for those who haven't seen it or seen it lately. It does spoil the whole first episode though. It's too bad it didn't survive. The show was fun from what I remember.

Reply to comment by [deleted] in Amsterdam opens a $65 Million underwater parking garage for bikes by Scarppetta
The government is building it not some company trying to make a profit. They are doing something to help their citizens. I know that sounds like an odd thing depending on what country you are living in.
> So while spending €60 million on an underwater bike garage might still seem like an impossible luxury for most cities, in Amsterdam it’s more like a sound infrastructure investment. “It’s a drop in the bucket compared to investments for highway expansions,” Glaser says, “not to mention the societal public health costs of congestion, car crashes and car dependency.”

Reply to LPT if you have to choose a hotel take the cheap one but most expensive room, rather than a expensive hotel but a cheap room by SupermarketMoist6282
I've stayed in the best room of various cheap hotels and it's still pretty similar to their regular rooms. The extra amenities for the better room is rarely worth it in my experience.

I've heard from some people at a geek con that the plan was to kick off Reed then put Shran as the armory officer. I think that would have been great.

Sounds like he left the Tinder date to go to the US Capitol riots. Unless she went with him the date was over.

The Russian Defense Ministry said the partial mobilization is now suspended. According to the article them announcing that doesn't actually stop it. Putin needs to put out a decree. Which doesn't seem like he has. The Defense Ministry members might be thrown out some windows next week.

Reply to Trail of candy wrappers leads Ga. deputies to 9 people accused of leading burglary ring by beyondlesea
Patrice O'Neal had a joke about how he always threw away his trash because he didn't want his candy wrapper to fall on some dead person so he would be known as the candy man killer. I tried to find a clip online but no luck.

Are you trolling or you don't understand how clubs work? Schools already have an extracurricular budget. Esports is just a new activity. If knitting clubs became incredibly popular would you be against them too?

Reply to comment by unitedfan6191 in What’s your favorite “social issues” episode of any show? by unitedfan6191
That episode made a lot less sense in college. I thought fraternities were for everyone who wanted to join. In reality they are for the rich and well off students. Those who are struggling to pay for tuition aren't in fraternities or sororities. When you realize that you see that one guy messing with Carlton is just playing the struggling guy. I've seen that trope in various shows. The rich kid playing a poor kid kind of deal.
