    Just had my 25th anniversary and we watched the original Stargate series again last year. Now it’s time for Babylon 5.

    We hit the engage button shortly after watching Babylon 5 on network TV in the later 90s. (Correlation is not necessarily causation, we spent a bit more time in bed doing other things back then)

    So, at least I have that going for me, and that is nice

      I really need to watch Stargate. I’ve never gotten around to it, and seeing the fans and cast campaigning to #savestargate lately has been inspiring.

          Heeecckk yeah!

          I have a close friend who is very into older / lost media, like DuMont network stuff, who introduced me to it. I’ve only seen a handful of episodes but it’s pretty amazing especially for the day and age.

            Your friend seems cool.

            Lost media is great.

            It wasn’t easy, but I managed to get every available episode, in decent quality.

            People like to talk about how great it is that someone had most of the old doctor who episodes on tape, but at least those exist.

            Space Patrol is even harder to find, and only half exist.

              They are very cool!

              Oh wow, I have to ask them if they have all of them or not, if they don’t I may be asking you for a favor!

              It sucks that so much of the media from that era is completely gone, like a ton of it was just dumped in the Hudson river.

    This sounds great. Doesn’t ever seem to work in my dating bios. I’m really not cut out to meet people. I’m delightful in person, usually, anyone wanna set me up on a blind date or 10?

    PS Match™ group dating sites are all trash in my terrible experience ;(

    I did that. Not in bed, mind you, in couch. It was a good run, but it’s over now. We’re still together, mind you, but we have small kids, and we still want to watch sci-fi together, so now we don’t watch sci-fi.
