Trailer for the S1 of Bridgerton, based on the first book of the historical romance series by Julia Quinn: [link]
They got Julie fucking Andrews (!) to narrate the show. I've read some of the books, although it's been so long, I can't remember much detail other than about the one centered on Penelope, which is the last one I read (I think). Looks fun, with lavish visuals and attractive and diverse cast. It drops on the Christmas Day on Netflix. I can't go home to Canada because of COVID-19 (sniff), and this looks like just the thing to provide distractions.

Just got a reminder that season 5 episode 1 of The Expanse will be released soon.
Maybe tomorrow, but probably Wednesday.

Oh, shoot. I am definitely behind on The Expanse but I don't rightly remember how much.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
I really wanted to like Bridgerton more than I did (it was available on the press screener site a couple of months ago) - the cast is great and it's visually gorgeous and Yay Regency Romance Tropes (Mostly*), but I couldn't work up any enthusiasm about the mystery built into the framing device and so it ultimately fell flat. I haven't read the books so I can't comment on whether it succeeds as an adaptation.
(*Some regency romance tropes in this series are Yikes not Yay.)

Anyone have any thoughts on how reliable Giant Freakin Robot is as a source? They're saying Disney wants to reboot Firefly as a family-friendly adventure show.

... does Disney own the IP?

So the article said - from when they bought Fox.

Huh, Firefly without Joss or the original cast? Not really Firefly.
