JustStark Getting Avenue 5 out of the way: finally in episode 5 it almost went full Lord of the Flies but not quite. Still, there's some hope it might turn really nasty. Second episode of For All Mankind. Ah,...

Mark Carroll "Outer Range" has "an unfathomable mystery", oooh. No idea if it's one I'd give two beans about. "Dawn" might be interesting though.

Mark Carroll Yeah, it's that Warbird one I'm remembering, she was on Romulus too in that one at first I think, but no doubt there are other stories I forgot. (And for TNG I am not sure I actually saw all of it,...

Mark Carroll Getting back to normal now, at least somewhat. We finished off "James May: Our Man in Japan" which was quite good overall but not unmissable and much as one might have expected. "Doctor Who" is...
