Wonder how they will deal with Alan Richman's passing

By Grapthar's Hammer, this is a terrible idea.

 

GQ was a fantastic movie, but I don't think the concept of parodying the whole Star Trek convention scene has enough material to make a TV show.  We shall see...

A comment from the article sums it up.

How exactly will this work?

The movie was based on the premise of an adventure occurring off the back of a classic TV show that was erroneously believed to be real by aliens.

Now you’re going to have a TV show about a movie parodying a classic TV show.
Will this show be a parody of that parody or will they play it straight, and have it be a continuation of the actual TV show revival that the movie ended on?

And obviously it doesn’t work if you don’t have any of the original cast, because they are what made that movie.

Tim Allen is doing another streaming show with Disney (The Santa Clauses).
Sigourney is doing blue alien stuff with Jimmy Cameron.
Shalhoub is talking about a Monk revival
And R.I.P. Alan Rickman.

Maybe they get Mitchell and perhaps Justin Long?

"There is no concept or a writer yet."

That's how you know it's a cash in and not some writer/producer coming to them with an idea they've come up with.

    • Why you need to take back control of your synced passwords and how to go about doing that

      By Steven P. · Posted

      I hear you on browser password manager, in my case I have two Google profiles, one was created when Google decided to grandfather us out of Workspace for Domains (with the replacement being too expensive for 25 users) resulting in my domain email address no longer being able to be registered to a new Workspace I created (for myself and another co-owner) so I could use Takeout and sync over some stuff to the new Workspace. Then I have my personal Google profile which I could be logged into on my desktop or Mobile, so I am saving passwords on one or the other, and when an URL changes another password for the same service gets added, it basically ends up being a giant mess. Unless I missed something is there a local decent password manager that can override the browser password managers for Chrome, Edge, Firefox (profiles) so that there is only one vault, and does that also support Passkeys (which to me are still confusing because sometimes it will ask for a Passkey on a phone I am no longer using!) Microsofts implementation of Passkeys is the worst!

      It's utterly baffling that we have no idea when we'll get new features even well after they've been released. Why Microsoft thinks this is a good rollout strategy is beyond me.

      If it makes anybody happy, others will need to be bitter about it. (apologies to Yogi Berra)
    • Creative Sound Blaster AE-X PCIe review: your headphones will love it

      By M. Murcek · Posted

      I owned a lot of Soundblaster cards over the years all the way back to the ISA slot era. I use a Soundblaster X3 external now because I'm able to run it through a KVM and have it follow the machine I happen to be using. It drives a set of JBL 305 powered monitors wonderfully. I'm not gaming or doing home theater through it, so rear channels aren't a consideration for me, though it does have side / rear / sub outputs.

      I disagree that using browser based password managers is a bad idea, your passwords are encrypted by the OS password, but they also be synchronized to make them helpful. I would also use a password manager extension that supports MFA TOTP and Passkeys to manage the account that synchronizes the data. Ente is 100% free and allows you to vault important information, has password vault support, and supports 2FA TOTP support, I just don’t believe, it has a browser extension.
