Yes.
Yes. Men like sports. Men watch the action movie, they eat of the beef, and enjoy to look at the bosoms. A thousand years of avenging our wrongs and that's all you've learned?

Dark Matter: I didn't see why people were comparing it to Firefly early on, but I kinda get it now. The finale was basically the Community Calligraphy episode, though. Non-miraculously.
I'm interested to see where it goes in season 2. These characters have all grown on me. Although I was hoping for more of a payoff from the android's invisible friend (have I mentioned how much I like that they just call the android "Android"? It is a lot)

Defiance: my basic frustration with this show is that the aliens are mostly (all? Some of the ones we don't see much of might not be) just caricatures of humans. Which is probably deliberate, but not at all appealing to me.
They really fucked up with the whole Omec storyline. It's too bad, that could have been interesting.
I am still interested in the whole people who have done terrible things can still be good people theme they have going on, I guess. Although said people often weren't in control of choosing to do the terrible things which reduces the power of the concept considerably.
Definitely not the show I hoped it would be when it started. Oh well.
Unrelatedly - I do not know anything about The Expanse. Should I do something about that? I can't tell from the ads if it's up my alley or not.

That was pretty series finale-ish.

It hasn't been renewed yet, but it hasn't been cancelled yet either.

That makes sense. From how the episode ended, that is.

If it does get cancelled, that was a pretty good finale. It's also the one show in this thread I'm currently caught up on. I'm several episodes behind on everything else.

Totally works as a finale, though I can see at least a couple of ways they could go if it does come back that would satisfy me.
