    So wait.

    Star Trek Disco spoilers for near the end
    Lorka was a mirror universe guy? That's kinda dumb

    So I guess Saru is the captain now? Weird.

    Also I think I might get hulu next month to watch The Orville.

    There are tons of hints all through the season up to that point that I actually figured it out before the season break. It felt good to have guessed correctly.

    Yeah I knew something was up but that's such a dumb thing IMO.

    Hmm, previous Discworld series have not been great (although I had and continue to have the biggest crush on the lady who played Angua in the Going Postal mini a few years ago--she's on Westworld now)

    I just looked it up, I don't really like how werewolf-y they made her. I always pictured her basically just looking normal.

    They've been fine for the most part, imo. Not great, but fine.

    It being a proper miniseries instead of a movie is promising

    It's always weird watching old network TV shows and seeing who they thought was enough of a celebrity to guest star and try and pop ratings

    Like Paris Hilton showing up on The OC just to say like one line, or Tara Reid's recurring role on Scrubs, etc

    Yup! There was a poster on the IMDB forums who I assume was a massive Britney Spears fan and would not shut up about how she saved the show.

    I had forgotten about this until mentioned, but I do remember her cameos now, they were terrible. Tho unsure if was her, or just the terrible character they wrote for her that made it so bad, with how the writing on that show was in later seasons , I'm willing to believe the latter

    There was a couple seasons in the middle where they did a lot of stunt casting. I was always partial to Chris Eliot as Lily’s dad, or the guy whose name I can’t remember who played Marshal’s dad.

    Yeah they gave Britney these big laugh lines but she's a pretty awful actor.

    And they tried to bring her back a season or two later and the entire gag was that nobody cared about her or remembered who she was.

    To be fair her character's entire thing was "Obsessed with Ted" so yawn and really? at them going that route with anything.

    The season finale should have been "Ted falls into an open volcano"

    She was the receptionist at , was it the tattoo removal place? but it's was very one note and forgettable ( so of course it went on for multiple episodes)
