You know, there for a minute, I thought we were going to get through an episode of Project Blue Book without the irritation of the pending inter-agency civil war that had been brewing since season 2 began. Alien ship sightings, parts of the ship in the water, a trip to Washington State, some baddies are […]
Has everybody let out that sigh of relief? Droughtlander is over – with a fantastic, satisfying episode! I’m happy to say that all the times I’ve seen this one so far (four at last count), I’ve needed tissues. It may not have been what I was completely hoping for (the Gathering section in The Fiery […]
Four episodes into Star Trek: Picard, it has become very clear to me that when Jean-Luc Picard resigned from Star Fleet 14 years earlier, he not only walked away from his career in a move he thought honorable and right, he walked away from a large chunk of his life as well. I harken back […]
Well that answers that question. It would appear that all roads do, indeed, lead to Hopkinsville, Kentucky – at least they did in episode 204 of Project Blue Book, titled simply, “Hopkinsville.” We’ve got alien craft in the air, aliens on the ground, a suspect hand print on a tree and a lying circus-runner named […]
I couldn’t help but wonder as I watched episode 3 of Star Trek: Picard, “The End is the Beginning,” just how many bridges Jean-Luc Picard had burned during his time in, and with his resignation from, Star Fleet. Oh, I’m sure it’s not that extensive, but it seems as we’ve moved through the first three […]
Three episodes into season 2 of Project Blue Book, we’ve already visited Roswell and now Area 51, the twin pillars of the alien cover-up conspiracy temple. Episode 3 took Capt. Quinn and Dr. Allen Hynek to Groom Lake and the strange and hidden machinations that the area has going on. It’s a fascinating look at […]
Episode 2 of Star Trek: Picard did nothing if not give us plenty to think and re-think about moving forward. The episode, titled “Maps and Legends,” appears to be the springboard for the adventure that we all knew Jean-Luc Picard was going to have to take in season 1. The search for Dahj’s sister, Soji, […]
If you’d have told me that Dr. Alan Hynek would ride to the rescue of Gen. James Harding – in the nick of time, mind you – I’d have been more than a little cynical of that occurring, particularly in Ep. 202 of Project Blue Book – “The Roswell Incident: Part II.” As this episode […]
“Sitting here, all these years, nursing my offended dignity. I haven’t been living, I’ve been waiting to die.” In that short span of words, we get an accurate read on what has become of Jean-Luc Picard since his retirement from Star Fleet. It’s a sad, tired, somewhat embittered Picard we meet early on in episode […]
Season two of Project Blue Book takes us to ground zero of the extraterrestrial question – Rosewell, New Mexico. What a great way to open the second season of this fabulously interesting show on History Channel. But the trip to Roswell isn’t because of something new as much as it is about reminding General Harding […]
