Apropos of this episode:

I'm all alone, more or less

I thought they looked like high-budget Scarrans

Did Paramount realize how badly they screwed up with the cancellation?

I know it gets a lot of hate, but TNG: Masks. There's no adversary, just the crew working together to solve a problem. The solution is based in understanding. For similar reasons, I like Cause and Effect and Time Squared.

I'm reading The Anglo-Saxons by Marc Morris. It's non-fiction. Morris' books have a good narrative, but they are scholarly works. I haven't gotten very far into The Anglo-Saxons yet, but one bit I greatly enjoyed was the author drawing parallels between Beowulf and Tolkien's Rohirrim, all while discussing the archaeological evidence for feasting halls and the zeitgeist of the people who'd built those halls.

Provided it's not simply subjected to some other entity's dumb decisions.

I set up my own kbin instance and am subscribed there. Do those numbers include federated subscribers like me?
