        Also played Roach in The People Under the Stairs. Creepy-ass movie that I haven’t watched since I was little (7-ish?), and haven’t wanted to re-watch it to see if it is still scary or it was just scary because I was little.

    A couple of Enterprise-related questions:

    1. I’m about halfway through S1, and I think I’ve just gone past the point where I was watching live during first run… does Archer, uhh, stop sucking? Everybody else is pretty par for the course for a Trek crew (Ctrl-H, ‘shields up’, TAB, ‘polarize hull plating’, ENTER), but this guy is willfully stupid and comically “Humanity Fuck Yeah!”

    2. Is Tripp going to go to Eugenics jail for having a skijump nose that no human has ever had?

      Archer learns a few hard lessons, but only mildly pivots away from “Western frontier explorer” to being more diplomatic.

      Florida Man gets a pass, but eugenics will feature later on.

    I felt like such a putz when as I was leaving the theatre after Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, I ran into two of my friends on their way in wearing bathrobes and carrying towels. I can’t believe I forgot to bring a towel. 😩

      A lost opportunity, but given how prolific his work is, there will likely be another visual crack at it. Granted, I’d prefer a miniseries for each book rather than films.

      My hometown’s movie theatre offered everyone a free ticket for the Hitchhiker’s premiere who showed up in a bathrobe with a towel. Needless to say I got to watch the movie for free and without chatting about it, several of my friends had the same idea. We shared many laughs that night.
