I am suffering from a mystery illness where I can’t eat solid foods, so please everyone have an extra good Thanksgiving for me so I can enjoy it through you!
No way, man. My grandma’s stuffing was some of the best stuff I’ve ever eaten. She passed down the recipe to my mom, but my mom is gluten-free so she can’t taste-test it as she makes it, so it’s never quite the same. Yet, still way better than stovetop.
Cranberry sauce, though. I will always prefer the canned jello type stuff over homemade. Some homemade ones are great, sure, but that canned stuff is so good.
In the early 2000s Channel 4 in the UK user to run sci-fi post 23:00 most nights; mostly Stargate SG1, a little Seven Days, Sliders IIRC, that sort of thing. I was 14 and enjoying staying up late, but god damn; when Lexx came on it was time to go to sleep. What a horrible mess of a show.
Maybe because it’s a German show? It’s not true that Germans don’t have a sense of humor, it’s just that it’s a little different. If you can get into it, it’s a lot of fun.
I love it, but it was pretty messy a lot of the time in various different ways. My impressions were:
Season 1: Brilliant, really good science fiction
Season 2: Fun episodic comedy sci fi
Season 3: Sometimes weird, sometimes gruesomely tedious
Season 4: Trying to be more like a normal comedy TV show, results mixed
The whole universe is getting destroyed, everything is disappearing, and they have time for a musical number!
In my opinion, honestly one of the best episodes of anything ever made. And you can even watch it on youtube right now, because apparently, someone uploaded the whole episode.
See, for me Lexx’s end credits always left a sort of melancholy feeling, because it meant the day was over, and there was nothing left to watch, so I might as well have gone to bed.
