"Federation Standard" is definitely just English - the people of New Eden spoke it, despite being moved to that planet during WWIII, well before the Federation was formed.

holy hell are spoilers so difficult to use on Lemmy

You're not wrong, but fortunately these threads are fair game for spoilers - no syntax needed.

I thought this one was a tonal mess - so much so that I was convinced the whole thing was going to turn out to be a training simulation or something.

This show is usually so good at setting a clear mood, but this one was so all over the place, I didn't know how seriously to take the situations the crew(s) found themselves in.

Before all the BS with CBS News happened, I really thought that Skydance was the best of the potential buyers that were floating around at the time.

He's got a steep hill to climb, but this might be a positive sign.

He's with the Prophets now

It's lashes all the way down.

It's the internet. There's going to be "backlash" regardless.

Though to be honest, people seem pretty high on SFA, both here an in other online spaces I visit.

I think there's a lot of potential in the concept, and the trailer looked great.

Either way, I'd much rather talk about the show than the people talking about the show.

Two crews of CFL officials will take part in NFL training camp joint practices starting on August 13. No NFL officials will travel to Canada this year but the two leagues will explore future opportunities for a northward exchange in the future.

I had no idea such a program had ever existed...

Yeah, that has to be it, even though that's not what the Doctor actually says.

Much has (justifiably) been said about the merger, and the path to how we got here, but everyone seems to agree that David Ellison is in the business because he loves movies - the whole company was practically a vanity project, rather than a moneymaking scheme.

Yeah, I think the new Paramount TV Studios is basically the Skydance studio, renamed - the Old Paramount shut down their version of Paramount Television Studios about a year ago.

 

The new, post-Skydance merger Paramount has two major TV studio units: the existing CBS Studios, led by David Stapf and overseen by Paramount Chair of TV Media George Cheeks, and the newly formed Paramount TV Studios, headed by former Skydance TV President Matt Thunell and overseen by Dana Goldberg, Co-Chair of Paramount Pictures and Chair of Paramount Television.

...

Meanwhile, two streaming series originally developed by the former [Paramount TV Studios] that CBS Studios took over after the former’s demise — Apple TV+’s Murderbot, renewed for Season 2, and the upcoming Little House On the Prairie for Netflix — will remain at CBS Studios, as will CBS Studios’ homegrown streaming projects including the Star Trek universe on Paramount+.
