This is from 1923, a prequel to Yellowstone.
Wow. This is pretty good. I'm going to have to watch the show. There is Helen Mirren and Robert Patrick, both looking older. And Harrison Ford is in the show too.

Traitors Are Hard to Spot

The plan for "The Acolyte" Season Two would've destroyed Star Wars...
Hey Thor,
I don't think that the first six episodes of The Acolyte were bad. I don't think they were great either, but I enjoyed them well enough. However, the show failed to stick any kind of landing, with episode 7 being terrible and episode 8 questionable for all sorts of reasons.
I tried to make the case that the show doesn't throw the Jedi under the bus. That is not how I saw it. Instead, I saw it as a handful of Jedi who had gotten in over their heads and didn't handle a situation well. (The real world tends to be messy, so maybe in the fictional world as well.) That is hardly a condemnation of all Jedi. Likewise, it was kind of telling the story from the bad guy's point of view. You responded to my comments in a video by doubling down on the notion that the show throws the Jedi under the bus. Again, that's not how I saw it.
I assumed that Leslye Headland had been taken out of context by some YouTubers, since her early interview turned people against the show before it had even come out. However, with this most recent interview, I have to concede the point. Apparently, she really was throwing the Jedi under the bus.
I can't find the interview, but I've read some people's comments about it, so I don't have the full context. Perhaps Yoda felt political pressure to make the Jedi look good, but this is not a characterization of Yoda that I like.
Best wishes,
John Coffey

Star Trek: Starfleet Academy TV Series 2026
The reviews for Starfleet Academy have been terrible. This is from people watching the show, but the 9nth episode got a favorable score.
Notice that the number of reviewers drops considerably as the series progresses.
Who are you? | Stargate Atlantis: 5x11 'The Lost Tribe'
This is a cool moment in one of the Stargate series. There were many cool moments and three different series.
For years there have been rumors of a franchise reboot, but it hasn't happened yet.
The original movie had mixed to negative reviews, although I personally liked it and saw it around 7 times, but the spinoff TV shows developed a large fan base.

The Real Monsters Aren’t the Infected
I was always a fan of Graham Greene who passed away recently. He was in Dance With Wolves along with a few other movies.
This is from the Zombie streaming series, "The Last of Us", which is adapted from a video game. I assumed that this was one of Graham Greene's final roles, but according to IMDB, he had dozens of recent roles.

She later ended up on Penn & Teller: Fool Us, which IMDb lists her as a producer.

The Battle of the Wilderness (May 5–7, 1864) was the opening clash of Union Lt. Gen. Ulysses S. Grant's Overland Campaign against Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee in Virginia. Fought in thick, tangled woods, the brutal, often hand-to-hand, three-day battle resulted in over 28,000 combined casualties and ended in a tactical stalemate.
This Minute Speech is Better Than Entire Sci-Fi Shows
One of the highlights of Babylon 5.
Ambassador G'Kar and Ambassador Mollari were bitter enemies, as were their peoples, but years later aligned with each other for a common purpose and to achieve peace.

The Woodstone Bed-and-Breakfast welcomed its first guest
I started watching the whole episode last night. I only got as far as 22 seconds into this video, but it really cracked me up.
From the show "Ghosts". The house is haunted. The lady is the only one who can see the ghosts. I think that she resembles Sarah Michelle Geller as Buffy The Vampire Slayer.
The person who says, "Hold up..." is a ghost.

Rose Marie is most famous for her role on the Dick Van Dyke show. She started as a child performer in Vaudeville, and reportedly in places that had some associations with gangsters.

BSG
I've tried a couple of times over the last few months to restart watching Battlestar Galactica. I didn't get very far, partly because I felt obligated to watch the streaming services I'm currently paying for. I also hesitated to watch it again because, over the last 22 years, I've watched the entire series three times. I've seen the pilot miniseries and season 1, episode 1 several times, and they are both fantastic. Because of that, I figured I must have the show memorized by now.
Another concern was that the series is more of a soap opera than I remember it being.
However, I watched the first half of the miniseries last night and fell in love with the show all over again. The acting and the drama are outstanding. Edward James Olmos and Mary McDonnell have screen presences that are truly remarkable. The entire supporting cast is excellent as well, especially Katee Sackhoff, Jamie Bamber, Aaron Douglas, Michael Hogan, and James Callis.
The special effects are starting to look dated, but they were movie quality at the time of the release.
I'd like to watch one episode per night until I make it all the way through the series.

Who Thought This Was a Good Idea?
0 seconds ago
As a parody of a Budweiser Clydesdale commercial, I thought it was cute. It seems like enough to make casual fans curious.
Unfortunately, it sends the message that the next Star Wars movie is more of a comedy and less of a science-fiction fantasy adventure. Still, die-hard fans like me are going to watch it.
I hold out hope that the movie is good, and if it is, then word will get out, and people will want to see it.
