Another fantastic episode!

I recently started subscribing to Amazon Prime. I have to say that The Man in the High Castle is one of the best shows I have ever watched. For any WWII buffs, the story line is fascinating. I can't wait for Season 3.

The conclusion of Stranger Things, good but not quite as good as I was hoping for. I hope the final scene doesn't mean a third season with the same theme. You done milked this story dry Duffer Brothers.

I thought the same thing. But they can get away with it because they opened up a few new doors in this season: such as Eleven"s "sister", the question of whether the originals at Hawkins were still involved, and most importantly, we never quite got a grasp on the head honcho of the upside down. It took over Will, sure, but what else do we know...and what else do the gang at Hawkins know? Plus, we never got to see the beginnings of all of this. Did the scientists find the dimension and create psychics to deal with it? Or were the psychics created to open the door? Hey...anyway, if they're creative, they can take this theme a hundred different ways. Music nowadays sure enough does this.

My thoughts exactly. Just finished watching season 2 which was much better than season 1. The Duffer Brothers' plan is to end the current story on season 4, but from what we've seen on these two seasons, there's enough stuff for at least a potential season 5 and beyond.

You right MrLinc, it was much better. I liked the twist of making the Head of the Government project a good guy and it would be interesting to learn more of the other girl and her cronies, who they are, how they came together, what they're about. But they'd have to get really creative to make me care about the Upside down any more. What I'd hate to see is it turning into the Xfiles. Lots of questions and never any answers.

Family Guy S16E06 and S16E07 were good. Looks like they are going for a new storyarc with Brian.

Watched the first episode of Future Man a couple of days ago.
At first it felt like one of the lame 70's scifi shows.
Then he blew his load on this guys leg and I realized this might be hilarious.
Downloaded the rest will watch after Longmire.

Just got done with the series finale of Star Trek Continues: To Boldly Go Part 2.

For a "non-professional" effort, I have to say, "Fantastic effort." And thank you folks for 11 episodes of PROFESSIONAL work. While I questioned the writing in the later episodes, I must say that compared with the releases of both the theatrical and television "legitimate" venues, yours stands alone to this Trekkie...or, if you will, Trekker. Godspeed, gentlemen and ladies. May your future works be as beloved and respected.
To CBS I say only this: be greedy. Be greedy. But how long before Disney buys you AND Viacom? Sumner Redstone can only last so long.

*Note* Technically, this isn't TV. But to that I say, stick it in your ear, CBS.
