62. What We Left Behind: Looking Back at Star Trek: Deep Space Nine (2018) 63. Beyond the Time Barrier (1960) 64. The Adventures of Captain Zoom in Outer Space (1995)I only recently discovered this existed. Originally meant as a television pilot, this 90's TV movie is basically what happens when you throw an old Flash Gordon serial, Hercules: The Legendary Journeys and Galaxy Quest into a blender and take none of what comes out seriously. For those not familiar, Ty Farrell is an arrogant 1950's television actor playing a Captain Video-esque superhero called "Captain Zoom". He's abducted by the people of the planet Pangea, who have no concept of fiction (although they do know snark), and thinking he's a real superhero they ask him to lead them against the evil Lord Vox (played by Ron Perlman). Oh, and Nichelle Nichols shows up as well. This was obviously made on a pretty tight budget and is not always completely coherent (it feels like there are scenes missing), but its jokes mostly land and it's entertaining in a cheesy 90's way. I wouldn't have minded seeing this continue as a series.

Look, if you're not gonna have a time-traveling Timon & Pumbaa, then I don't see why you're bothering.

So the new Gargoyles comic, Gargoyles: Quest, features a plot where Demona hires Thailog to steal a magical artifact called "The Hand of Valmont". I'm sure Greg Weisman has a whole mythology designed for the artifact based on obscure folklore and legend, but until I see otherwise I'm just gonna assume they're trying to cut off John Malkovich's hand for playing the character in 1988's Dangerous Liaisons.

There was the season six episode with the Beach Boys episode in a blink and you'll miss it. But my pick is Mrs Columbo There was the spinoff, but basically no one would count that, especially since it's explicitly NOT canonical. Shame, Kate Mulgrew would have been a good enough lead for a mystery show in-general, but the project was doomed from the start because having Columbo's wife divorce him was just not what virtually anyone wanted to see. From what I understand Peter Falk was open to making an appearance on it until he found out how young Kate Mulgrew was at the time. Based on all the random information he dropped about his wife and their marriage on the original show, it would've meant they had gotten married when she was like eight and he noped on out of there.

I'm just gonna say it - I liked Sliders better with Maggie on it. Mostly because Kari Wuhrer was really hot.

It’s just so weird because peacock isn’t known for its animation library, let alone anime. Also, nbc, hasn’t had cartoons since 1990. 1992. We shall not forget the legacy of Space Cats and the ProStars! During the pandemic I found the first two season of Jackie Chan Adventures and the Men in Black cartoon on Crackle of all places. I think they're gone now. If you're a bad movie fan then the 1989 version of Journey to the Center of the Earth is on Tubi. I'm currently signed up for the Night Flight Plus streaming service. For the most part it's what you'd expect - obscure music videos, Z-grade movies, cult horror films, random public access finds, stoner fare, etc. etc., but it also has some pretty iconic anime on it including Bubblegum Crisis and Megazone 23.

110. TERROR AT LONDON BRIDGE (1985)After London Bridge was purchased by a rich man and moved to Lake Havasu, Arizona in 1971, it is discovered 14 years later that a piece fell off and was in the bottom of the river. With it finally placed, making the bridge whole...IT ALLOWS THE SPIRIT OF JACK THE RIPPER TO EMERGE AND START MURDERING IN MODERN DAY...and the only man who can stop him? Deputy DAVID HASSLEHOFF. It's like the weird Baywatch Nights episode you've ever seen. Also, it plays off like a JAWS ripoff as the town's government want the killings kept on the down-low, lest tourism be impacted. What a wonderful concept for a flick. Truly David Hasselhoff's finest hour as an actor.

Not a cartoon, but when I was really young I remember Photon used to air in my market on Sunday mornings at a crazy early hour. The only things I remember being on at the same time were like church shows and political talk shows.

So just finished this - {Spoiler}You know, when watching the Sonic movies, I always figured that Jim Carrey's Robotnik was kinda unique to that universe. That everybody else was there just to be his straight man. Then you watch this, a show where you see that world is just populated with weird, quirky, bat-poop insane people just like Robotnik, and things just suddenly make so much more sense while also making so much less sense. And it all leads to a climax that that feels like something out of a Farrelly Brothers movie, with some Dodgeball thrown in.
It was all amazing and I can't wait for Sonic 3.

If you're in the NYC area an Artichoke Basille's is the best. Their menu is pretty limited, they don't offer a lot of topping and you can't special order their pies, what they have is what they have, but their signature Artichoke Pizza is amazing and you won't find a better slice of pepperoni anywhere.

I vaguely remember most of the pre-SatAM shows in my area were more education based. The only one I can specifically still remember and name though is Hickory Hideout.

I remember the Sunday morning syndicated cartoon blocks on the non-network channels when I was a kid. They were usually no where near as interesting as the Saturday morning cartoons. Although one year, I think it was 1993, the Sunday cartoons had a surprisingly strong line-up with shows like Mighty Max, ExoSquad, SWAT Kats and even The New Adventures of Speed Racer. I think Knights of Justice also aired around that time.

To no one’s surprise apparently there’s a huge post credits scene that they’ve been able to keep secret and Rob Liefeld backed it up. I hope it's some weird multiverse thing where Chris Evans's Johnny Storm and Michael B. Jordan's Johnny Storm meet Captain America and Kilmonger. I hope it somehow involves the Reb Brown version of Captain America.

Aren't there already like at least two other versions of The Doctor floating around London in 1963?

They feel like the kind of stable you used to see on an AEW B-show. Like they should have someone like QT Marshall running with them.

61. Corvette Summer (1978) 62. What We Left Behind: Looking Back at Star Trek: Deep Space Nine (2018) 63. Beyond the Time Barrier (1960)Heard about this movie for the first time a few weeks ago and, since it's on YouTube, decided to check it out. For those not familiar, a 1960 test pilot's experimental rocket plane goes awry and sends him into the future to the far off year of 2024 (bum-bum-bum). There he discovers that after a plague (?!) caused by atomic testing, the bulk of humanity has turned into an underground society of (surprisingly attractive) sterile deaf-mutes. The leaders of this society are hoping said test pilot can, well, help "revive" the human race with his unaffected seed. Falling in with a group of fellow time travel refugees, the test pilot attempts to escape the underground city and get back to his aircraft so he can travel back to his own time and stop the aforementioned plague. There's some decent special effects, at least for its time, but otherwise it's a pretty boring movie with a lot of wooden B-movie acting.
