Apparently the criminal charges were dismissed because the prosecutors had presented inadmissible evidence to the grand jury.

So how close is "almost decapitate"?

I'm guessing that means the head is just hanging on like a jack-in-the-box head.

What a great choice of words here...really paints a vivid image.

We've been watching 'Hacks'...the show with Jean Smart (who's amazing) playing a Joan Rivers type of Las Vegas comedian.

We like it...its funny, with enough pathos to make it interesting. But what we really like about it? The 30 minutes long episodes.

Season 3 just started. First two episodes have been as great as the first two seasons were.

Finally diving into What We Do in the Shadows and everyone here, other than TB and Syb, who decided to not sell it at all you suck

Anyone still watching "Masters Of The Air"?

Just watched Episode 5...and wow...how nutty was it for those guys to bail out of a flaming B-17 as its going down?

And I was trying to think which would have been the worst crew position...and its gotta be either the waist gunners or the poor dude stuck in the ball turret.

A little late, but I had to reiterate how good this show is. You kind of think of guys in planes as being outside of the action of a war, but watching their planes get torn up by bullets...they really showed how horrifying it must have been sitting in those planes. Hard to believe it was entirely based on real people from their memoirs. Fucking horrifying. CGI didn't bother me at all, I was so engrossed in the story I let some jankiness slide.

Dave’s question reminded me of this poem we read in high school:

From my mother's sleep I fell into the State,
And I hunched in its belly till my wet fur froze.
Six miles from earth, loosed from its dream of life,
I woke to black flak and the nightmare fighters.
When I died they washed me out of the turret with a hose

Like for real, don't read this if you are following the show and don't want a major spoiler.

I watched Ep 2 a little buzzed/high and turned to my wife and said "I think this dude is an actual alien." She laughed... Then I laughed... And we started calling it The Alien Show. But once your mind is even a little bit down that path, it's actually fairly obvious.

Shogun, Fallout, X-Men 97 are all excellent.

Agree, Agree, and what is X-Men 97?

X-Men 97 is a continuation of the old X-Men cartoon from the 90's. You absolutely do not need to see the previous cartoon to enjoy it. Though huge lore dorks probably should. The whole season is out now but it is a really good story arc of X-Men. Frankly I think it's one of the best pieces of X-Men media period.
