AI can just arrange words to sound good. They cannot "inhabit" a character like a human writer can. The difference is obvious.
I would like to optimistically agree, but I see the robot Velveeta that is passed out as AI "art" and the general public's reaction tells me that the majority do not care.

Oooo, was that too racist of me? Too much whiiiiite privilege in my tone?
Get over yourself. At this point you're white noise in here (pun intended), just a background hiss that we now ignore.
We just did a rewatch, mainly to enjoy Goode's performance again. I'd forgotten that half of Easy Company from Band of Brothers appears in this series.

It holds up. More enjoyable for me since I went in knowing that we'd get sitcom versions of most of the main characters. I was more impressed with Collin Hanks this time around. His character possibly develops the most over the series.

Really looking forward to the I Play Rocky film.

Maybe it gets better in later episodes? I don't think I'll stick with it to find out.

I did. There's a bit of tongue in cheekiness but nothing anal or gastric related. The guy just loves the movie.

Is it the notes about the environment as a plot point that has you upset about the secondhand farts?
Keith Jackson elevated the status of Ohio State, USC, Notre Dame, and Penn State so high that they've enjoyed 60 years of being the top names in football, even when their programs were on the skids.

When Keith Jackson called your game on ABC, it was a fricking event.

How people in these families/gangs ever think things like a minor fender bender, road closing etc. are random. Ooops my bad, here's my info. then he let;s meet up and I'll give you some cash. Cool, thanks.

I mean the wife is kind of an idiot and not really part of that "world."

The fact that she married this guy and cannot comprehend the work lifestyle that he has to lead tells you how naïve and obtuse she is. It's like she married a fireman and she's pissed that he's continuously called out to put out fires.

Reminds me of SNL's HS Musical parody from this weekend.

I will add that the Rings charge is not being handled well. The hologram sure lasted a long time for only having a 5% charge left
5% of 48 hours is over two hours. (The show is going with the 48 hour ring charge cycle.) In some more recent comics the charge is extended if the ring isn't used. It was a 55 minute episode and they added the drama of the Halogram starting with "we've got about an hour left."

I was a bit letdown that the power battery wasn't in Hal's fail safe. My out of the box thinking now is that the yellow glow in that well was Sinestro creating a power battery, or Hal had hidden a battery on that dead planet.

I wouldn’t call it a bad season, but it definitely wasn’t great.

Word is that the final season is in the can and will not be a homage of the week series of genre shows.

I imagine a version of this with media happens every 15-20 years as one generation of people age out the desired marketing bracket and another group age in.
It wasn't the audience aging out. The rural shows were still popular. CBS just made the decision to be the "Tiffany Network" and have smart shows following their upper-class CBS News with Walter Cronkite and 60 Minutes. Luckily Norman Lear and Grant Tinker could produce those more upper-class comedies.
They punched Paul Henning in the gut. Today it would be as if the networks cancelled all of Dick Wolf's shows at once.

Hee Haw made the genius move of opting for syndication. The perfect bridge show between Saturday afternoon's Porter Wagoner and Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom.

we only have one episode left this season.
And it was a decent one that started out strong, then wobbled towards the end. My main takeaway was how much better Celia Rose Gooding looks with Nichelle Nichols signature hairdo. But I guess "mature and professional" wasn't what they were going for with the younger Uhura.

It IS going to happen
At the most you'll see certain very old versions open to the public. Mickey isn't in public domain, but Steamboat Willie currently is. You might get the Siegel and Shuster or Fleischer Superman, but if you vary your version towards the updated character you're in violation. They're very good at extending these things.

These include Mickey Mouse, Superman, Batman,
Not gonna' happen.
Punctuation farts were accepted in polite society up until LBJ overdid it with his final State of the Union farewell address.

Norm McDonald documentary
Hope this doesn't oversaturate the market for the 97 podcasts currently built around retelling Norm stories.
