I've heard that mentioned in reference to the show, I'll keep that in mind. Someday I'll get to it! Life keeps me busy.

If I remember right, about a year ago they were banning a lot of Linux players. It might be happening again.

I've never seen a lot of that show, but it seemed interesting. I even own the series set, I just haven't had the time to watch. It doesn't help that my spouse and I normally watch a lot of things together, and she wasn't a big fan of the episodes we had seen!

Some Lower Decks! I'll admit I wasn't a big fan of the first season, but I thought season 2 and onward was better. I'm not always a fan of the style of humor, but I do get some laughs here and there! I would certainly watch a Star Trek animated drama series if they made it.

I appreciate the information! I may have to give at least some of the episodes a try. I'll admit I'm not super thrilled about the interviews I've seen where RTD mentions leaning even harder into fantasy than before, but we'll see!

Ah, that makes sense! It's more something to kind of distract you instead.

In your opinion, are the stories in the new season anywhere near the quality level of the 10th and 11th Doctors? I started noticing I was enjoying them less part way into Smith's run, and it felt like it was an overall downward trend until I stopped watching after Series 9. I thought both Smith and Capaldi did really well with their portrayal, but overall I didn't think the stories and writing had the same spark that the earlier ones had. It might just be the fact that they were more serialized though.

I can't say I've ever tried that to fall asleep, but I will put something on in the background as I'm working on projects. I've never been able to do it with DS9 though, because I always end up watching it instead of working!

I can appreciate a website making a list like this rather than putting five games to a page to garner more clicks! I definitely have different tastes than the reviewers though, which is fine.

Yeah, I would put V in there as well! I still don't like VI nearly as much, even though I've played it quite a few times.

I don't play games to get in the mood for a season, but I've noticed the last couple of years that I'm likely to play some games a lot more in certain seasons!
