There were two rooms. One had all the qualified scientists and the other had all the interns. Everyone died in the scientist room leaving the ship with the beautiful smart people they brought along mostly as breeding stock.

Wealthy, educated countries which still have outdated gender norms at home and brutal working cultures are having issues with childbirth rates because. . . . obviously.

Or. . . . . Japanese people are working so much that they don't have time to get married and have children.

Star Trek TNG would have been much better if they'd just kept the best ten episodes.

Buffy might have become a cult hit but it probably would have just blended in with everything else out there.

This show will never end.
The first season was actually pretty good. Then the entire town started buying coats at Ross and stopped being a poor frontier town.

I love how you corrected yourself. You were all coming for yourself in your own comment.

Because it's easy and fun.
It's also not a family sitcom which is nice.

The difference in the aesthetics and behavior between how the girls react and look when stranded between Yellow Jackets and The Wilds is drastic. So much better in The Wilds where they gave the characters chapped faces, dirty and tangled hair and they didn't decide to have prom.

All they need to say is I'm blessed that I was able to get a start because of the contacts I have because of my family and acknowledge that I have privilege that others don't have which helped me get started.
We know you work hard, and that your talent is there. You also got your agent and initial auditions because of who you knew and it would have taken a lot longer for you to get started if you hadn't been rich and connected.
Even someone who barely has any nepotism like Meghan Markle (whose father worked behind the scenes) had knowledge of how to get agents and how the entire system worked (and a lack of student loans) that someone whose parents were factory workers or teachers in the midwest wouldn't have.

No, they're terrific in their absurdity.
There was a VOLCANO at a mini-golf course. A shark on the highway. So many people stuck on Ferris wheels.

Booth and Bones. They compliment eachother.

She was clearly guilty but there was also no actual harm done (the baby was returned the same day) and the woman had her reasons that she felt she was protecting the child from abuse.
I feel like I've seen this same sort of story written by the same people and the same actors multiple times (maybe I just watched too many seasons of Switched at Birth). It's heartbreaking though and I'm sure common. Parents of deaf kids who don't bother to learn sign language.

Some small liberal arts colleges are really weird and push into being really weird. I'm guessing that is what happened here. It was student housing but it wasn't a dorm, it was a small house with a bunch of students living in it.

Nothing. The school told the parents and people that complained that they were overreacting and there wasn't anything they could do because they are allowed to have overnight guests.
The real criminality didn't happen until they were off campus. But he was using the campus and student housing to prey on and recruit the young people. He turned their living room into a place to brainwash and groom those kids.

There's a doc on peacock that's really good. The videos they have are chilling.
There's another coming out soon on hulu.

Reply to I just noticed when thinking of the popular modern sitcoms vs the popular sitcoms of the early/pre 2000s, many of the older ones used to be more centered around friends just hanging while modern are workplace set. Why do you think this is? by 3kool5you
Grand Crew is a sitcom about a group of friends. Very much Friends except none of the Friends are white and they hang out in a wine bar instead of a coffee shop. It's really good.
Ghosts is about a group of friends, they're just mostly dead.
