Huh, I didn't know the romans thought it was over.

Figured they'd think it was just not worthy of their attention at that moment.

She was, but im not sure who would have been better.

And as I type that, I still think her girlfriend this season would have been better casting for her. As would Abby.

Yes, chief Roberts administers the entire judiciary, this would be adding an enforcement arm.

It's not optimal, but that's where we are now.

He didn't have to talk his way out, the romulans got what they love: proof their enemy are actually all cheating liars.

That commander got some serious awards for that, it was a massive romulan victory, they'll be using it to show the federation are all worse cheats than everyone for centuries.

Also, you need to never watch in the pale moonlight.

Because you can't live with it...

The script is nothing to write home about, largely adapted from the meeting transcripts.

The setting is fixed and fairly limited, painting a backdrop but only just, powerful men desiring comfort besieged by winter.

The acting is art beyond anything I've seen elsewhere, each character responds to the next, you see and are absorbed by the mundanity of the interactions, the basic dynamics of a corporate meeting, while the underlying impact screams in your brain.

They took the dry meeting notes (https://holocaust.umd.umich.edu/news/uploads/WanseeProtocols.pdf) and made a drama that shocks you with the ultimate banality of evil, exactly as imagined by Hannah Arendt.

This just came to me today, we all write our own narratives for what we do, and watching Heydrich, the ambitious patriot trying to clear the way for his country's deserved greatness, the bureaucrats trying to slither amongst the politics, the soldiers merely looking for leadership, and the diplomats and lawyers merely trying to keep the blood off their cuffs.

Meanwhile, Eichmann takes his orders and follows them with the obedience and competence of a well-disciplined soldier...

 

I'm sure this won't end up just like the GOP immigrant caravans of ms-13 and disappear right after the election.

 

I mean, sure, at this point why not?

 

Your honor, I would like the opportunity to interview the underaged girl accusing me of rape, privately in my basement, so we can try to reenact the crime and confirm her testamony.
