Too funny. I just wrote you, but on my wall. I'm going down the list of replies, then came to this and was like "WHAT? TWO people are making Terry Pratchett references?" It took me a bit to back up and look at the avatar and realize it was you. lol

I don't get how the garden lion from the Flower Shop reminds you of Two Flower, who always struck me as a portly Asian dude.

It's great to find someone familiar w/ Stephen Fry. He is truly amazing. There are few things he hasn't done. I believe A Bit of Fry and Laurie ran 2 seasons. They're not great quality. It's really surprising it survived, tbh. The BBC recorded over lots of shows. The only reason Monty Python exists is because one of the members bought the tapes from the BBC. Whenever the BBC wants to air it, they have to rent it or whatever, from Terry Jones. (btw, I have tons of things that Stephen Fry has written, filmed, and done on audiobook -- pirated, if you don't mind that. If you're at all interested I can send it your way. I've got the audiobook (abridged and unabridged of him reading the Harry Potter series) But I have an audiobook of HHGttG read by Douglas Adams. I just listened to it again to verify that it's him and not Fry.

So you've seen Farscape? omg, I wrote TONS about Farscape, assuming you knew nothing about it, since so few people do. But, why is it on your list? Kinda lost me there. I had no idea there were sequel comics to Farscape. Color me intrigued.

Ugh! Don't get me started on Lucifer. I watched the show, and it's nice. It's just that both Lucifer and Dark Matter were trying to get picked up by Netflix for another season. There's SO MUCH that can be done with Dark Matter! And Lucifer? It really is just a variant of a cop show. But, in the end, Lucifer got another season and that was that. Dark Matter could have gone on for several seasons and even that wouldn't have been enough. I have no idea if they were in direct competition or anything like that, it just felt that way. I was on Twitter where Dark Matter cast and fans alike were petitioning Netflix for another season. Dark Matter cast and crew are still hoping for another season. They're very dedicated.

I'm a big fan of the various comic-related series, including the ones on Amazon. Jessica Jones is my least favorite, and Green Arrow... I'm glad it's over. Oliver got to be just such a downer. Barry was always so up and nerdy. I like nerdy, perhaps because I'm one myself??? lol

The only comics I have is for The Tick. I also have the Graphic Novel. I keep seeing people extolling Amazon's version of it, but I don't like it any better than the last attempt at a live version. I've only watched a few episodes. I couldn't bear watching any more. I prefer the cartoons that aired in the mid-1990's.

You mentioned that you've read the Dirk Gently Novels. Have you seen the series w/ Elijah Wood? I wouldn't say it's at all faithful to the books, but it's certainly quirky and entertaining.

lol I'm not sure if I covered everything you brought up. I've been scrolling up and down like a maniac, trying to talk about all this marvelous SciFi stuff. It's so rare to find someone that has similar interests. I def need to change my avatar on here. I wanted to show that I was a Joker, but that's just so Blah! I'll come up w/ something better.

It's been great talking w/ you.

See ya in Darkwood!
