How can mainstream suburban people be so aloof of the capabilities of the space program?
Posted by CaptSheridanB5 on 1/19/22 at 6:23 am
remember watching the "Inspiration4" documentary on Netflix and remember hearing a person, one of the family members I think saying that they thought one of the crew members were going to the Moon.

We haven't had the ability to launch people to the Moon since 1972 but in a couple of years NASA might have that capability.
How could society be that aloof?
Is mainstream suburban society too obsessed with reality TV to think of anything else?
I'd love to see the reactions of the reality show loving masses of red blooded suburban America if they started seeing promos for big budget space adventures on the reality show channels.

What is up with this pop culture obsession with space and astronauts this year?
Posted by CaptSheridanB5 on 11/15/20 at 2:01 am
This year it seems like they are coming out with an astronaut show every minute. Disney Plus, Netflix, Apple TV. Netflix is giving us their second astronaut show.

Not even children's TV has been safe from this space craze.
This is crazy. We haven't seen anything like this since the 60s.
People are using their creativity and the internet to give us their own space adventures.

Not just astronaut stuff and sci fi but 2020 has given us space documentaries as well.
I remember back in 2013 and 2014 there was nothing on TV with space travel in it. This space revival has been amazing.
Perhaps Elon Musk's achievements have ignited interest in space again.

Astronaut stuff is way cooler than any sci fi!

This will be one of the best shows of the Fall!

Apple TV has the craziest show!
LINK
You can't go wrong with HBO!
LINK
Back when the Discovery channel wasn't obsessed with rednecks!
LINK
What will it take to get the reality show masses of America to check out something with a spaceship in it? Perhaps astronaut stuff would be more accessible than overly weird sci fi stuff!

Why don't men watch TV anymore?
Posted by CaptSheridanB5 on 4/13/20 at 12:37 am
I do recall hearing one of my college professors in 2012 say the reason why there are no more shows like BSG, Firefly, Farscape, etc. is because more women than men watch TV. I took that at face value but if it that is the case than why have red blooded American men shunned TV as well as intellect and imagination?
How have we red blooded Americans lose our fascination of space and space dogfights?
Oh and Knights of Sidonia kicks arse even if it can be pervy at times! Those wacky anime creators!
The last great American space opera was a video game! Mass Effect!

Historical movies are on a roll!
Posted by CaptSheridanB5 on 1/13/20 at 5:59 am
I think Ford v. Ferrari, Little Women, and 1917 were amazing movies! I hope the success of these movies leads to a wave of period films this decade!
I am getting tired of all these CGI superhero fests!
Who here agrees?
Although I would like to see the space opera genre overtake the superhero genre this decade!

Babylon 5 is better than Star Wars and Mass Effect!
Posted by CaptSheridanB5 on 1/13/20 at 5:56 am
See those epic character arcs on Game of Thrones! That was pioneered by Babylon 5! Babylon 5 also has much better writing than Mass Effect!

I hope you are joking otherwise humanity is screwed.
Why are people on science fiction forums more mature and intelligent?
Posted by CaptSheridanB5 on 1/13/20 at 5:53 am
There are intelligent people here but it seems like half of the people here are only interested being dumb or pretending they are dumb.
Why is that?

Why is Mass Effect the most accessible sci fi universe?
Posted by CaptSheridanB5 on 1/13/20 at 5:53 am
It seems like most of the people I know who enjoy something in space other than Star Wars and Guardians of the Galaxy only have experienced Mass Effect. They have never heard of masterpieces like BSG and B5.
What makes Mass Effect the most accessible sci fi universe?

Why have Americans lost interest in space!
Posted by CaptSheridanB5 on 1/12/20 at 1:09 am
I was never interested in anything set in space until I experienced Mass Effect and Guardians of the Galaxy at the recommendation of a friend. Those led me to masterpieces such as Babylon 5 and Battlestar Galactica!
I think Captain John J. Sheridan is an all American hero!
I found out in the 90s up to the early 2000s we had TV shows set in space! Multiple Star Treks, Babylon 5, Space: Above & Beyond, Farscape, Battlestar Galactica, and Firefly!
Ever since Battlestar Galactica ended it seems like space hasn't been as big in our culture as it was in the 90s!
What happened?
Was it the recession? After all there was no money for the space shuttle!
