Well, 2.5 weeks off work today. Finally some me and gf time. Also visiting loads of friends during my holidays, so yeah. Let the good times roll!
Also, thanks to you, I’m still on a Star Trek binge of all episodes including Troy’s mom. Gosh, it makes me happy. Same with you, apparently. The older you get, the more you love those episodes. :)
hugs

Well, whenever you eventually get sick of Star Trek, might I suggest another show? One with feels and facts? Love and pain? Laughing and crying? Pure, utter, unfettered stupidity in the most glorious of ways?

Whether you’ve seen it before or not, it deserves to be seen again. Don’t ya think?

Never heard of that one before. That’s actually the name of the show?
Let me introduce you to Mystery Science Theater and Red Dwarf though, in case you don’t already love them from the bottom of your soul ^^

I have indeed heard of MYST and Red Dwarf, and seen my fair amount. I do indeed love but i’m still shocked that you haven’t heard of my show! It’s… wow.
Oh. My. God. I now get to share with you one of the most beautiful pieces of media ever created. It’s very short, only 4 seasons with 13ish episodes a piece, but it perfectly tells the story it’s trying to. It is utterly and absolutely amazing. It is called The Good Place. Please, please, please, please trust me. Do not look into the show beyond what’s shown in the trailer I’m going to send. The show has a lot going on and you could deprive yourself of a few surprises and totally enjoy it, but it’s always better to have those “Oh my god” moments. The biggest stars on the show are probably Kirsten Bell and Ted Danson putting on their absolute best comedy masterclass.
Here is the trailer for Season 1. I just rewatched it to make sure it sums up the show well. It leaves out one major thing however. This show genuinely rivals TNG for one of the most philosophical shows I’ve ever seen. It’s incredible. They teach actual philosophy throughout the show in order to help the main character. It is truly incredible.
