The first set was Nancy Drew + Hardy Boys (+ Tom Swift for the professor? I’m not familiar with that one). The other thread has a comment that there was a popular series in Germany by a different name for those stories “The Three Investigators”
The Bender story was encyclopedia brown I believe

If you attended, how did you find the show? I couldn’t make it this time
Man must pay for all his misdeeds. When the treetops are stripped of their leaves whoaaaa ohhhhh
Oh Woah, one of these?
Two lines of the song are sung by the inmate Murphy in the 1992 film Alien 3 immediately prior to his death. Brief snippets are played in “The Time Is Now”, the second-season finale of the TV show Millennium, which depicts an apocalyptic event. The song was rewritten and used as the introductory theme for the 2000 TV series Cleopatra 2525. In 2010, it was parodied as “In the Year 252525” in the seventh episode of Futurama’s sixth season, “The Late Philip J. Fry”, as Fry, Professor Farnsworth and Bender travel forwards through time to find a period in which the backwards time machine has been invented.[18] The song acts as an aesthetic theme to the film Gentlemen Broncos.[19] The BBC Radio series 2525, a sketch show set in the year 2525, featured a cover of the song with its first lyric as its introductory theme.
Scene from Futurama:
The line is quippy, but it’s silly when you look at the batman stories. Anything can be funny if you get reductionist with it
When the writers have her saving plants, they do it in a way that you root for her. Same with Mr. Freeze, those episodes and the movie is really touching, solely because of his motivation.
You don’t root for batman to beat them up or flex his wealth on them, you want Batman to help them. You want them both to get happy endings.
The stories usually end with batman stopping the carnage, while also arresting whatever CEO was cutting down trees or doing experiments on Nora. In other stories, he funds social programs and advocates for reforms as Bruce Wayne.
Maybe there are other stories where he acts like a frat boy. I skip content that has shitty writing
Yea they are nice to check out. I don’t always see things that I am interested in, but it’s great that the group exists. It stops a lot of stuff from going to waste
Guess I’ll take the data file
Never Have I Ever (highschool coming of age show, therapy focuses on those issues). I believe it’s on Netflix
Atlanta has a short but decent therapy arc in the last season
On the hip hop side, they’re growing in popularity but could be bigger: Coast Contra
One of the modern rap/hip hop groups that really holds up, and they’re consistent with the quality
This was the video that got me following their stuff:
Adding on:
LA Noire is pretty good, it’s slow enough that you can talk through the different options, or just be silly while having a laugh
Not yet you don’t
The IT Crowd?
Fair enough! I’m enjoying learning about the hardware stuff, so I was excited to watch HCS. I guess it’s a hard course, which is where the mild worry came from 😄 I’ll get started on watching it!
I loved Silicon Valley, and I might give it a rewatch sometime to catch all the jokes I didn’t quite understand
Sometimes I have the opposite problem, where the audience is more disruptive than anything. I haven’t been in a while, but I’m thinking back to the random cheering and clapping that pulls you out of the movie.
I also find that a lot of theatres are too loud now, but maybe my ears are getting old
I’m not sure why I was expecting something different, with Jason Statham making that face in the thumbnail
The cast alone makes me want to watch this one
I didn’t like that finale.
The characters felt lifeless, like they were all doing a loose parody of themselves. Even the “oh lord” felt like a reference. The one scene which felt genuine was when Bender shot the can opener and took a nap.
At least we have the older seasons to constantly rewatch.
