I was reading a policy wonk's decade+ old book over the holidays and space force really doesn't seem that crazy. Of course someone else's idea came out of the shitgoblin's berder hole, so now it's funny.

Just do everyone a favour and release every episode of Velocity.

Not when Iannucci's simultaneously working on a Hugh Laurie-led space comedy for HBO.

The quotes I’ve read make it seem like she’s not punching that ticket just yet. I’ll hold out hope for now.

Except for Alexa.

You talk about the current climate, but Tucker and Ingraham didn’t feel any real pain till they ventured deep into the heart of downtown crazytown.

But it's a point that needs repeating when people wonder why they do this stuff. It gets results. I'm beyond expecting better than hypocrisy from them. I'm not wading in that.

With the rumours of Charlotte/Becky to Raw, hopefully Alexa gets healthy soon and starts dominating the SmackDown title scene. Alexa as a surprise entrant and Rumble winner would be great. And even with Becky and Charlotte on SmackDown, they could use they extra heel starpower.

Devil's advocate: A lot of people aren't interested in seeing that side of it. Of course I'm just taking a knock at the comparison. You're totally right about athletes competing for titles being the whole point.

I assumed this was a widely accepted abbreviation of a Michael Scott bit. Whoops.

Not from anywhere credible yet. Though even if they're true, I'm not sure why anyone would risk being put in the discard pile for the remainder of their contract at this point.

I'm not into that scene. ELI5?

Only SDLive Youtube video with over 1M views as of this post (at 1.4M): Closest at 724K is the Miz-Sheamus main event.

I'm not into that scene. ELI5?

My reaction to his entrance tonight: "Wow, the ring announcer is really putting some stink on his first name... Oh..."

Sounds to me like whatever this Beyond Wrestling stuff is needs a larger stage to shine on after proving itself in the minor leagues.

While I appreciate the sentiment here, this is your winner with 106M.

2M views now. And yeah, a lot of it is the thumbnail. But it still tells you something.

Hypothetical question based on this from the Raw thread: Seemingly there's an appetite from wrestling fans for a certain kind of content that WWE may not be interested in providing all the time. If AEW were to lean more adult and more mature, what would the reaction be if some of their talent were to partner with producers of tasteful nude photography? I know popular culture is different than it was at the turn of the century. But, as seen above, it isn't so different that such content wouldn't find an audience.

Food for thought: At the time of this post, only two official WWE Youtube videos from last's Raw have more than a million views. One is Braun flipping the limo with 1.9M. And at 1.8M, we have...

Aren't vocal racists normally mad about something?

Why would he be worried about that? Biscuits and gravy made him a man.

There's speculation NBC may use their Olympic coverage to drive their streaming service? That's some serious unearned confidence. I'd happily pay to see them give up their rights to the games forever.
