Hadn’t heard about it until I was doing my MA at military college. The realism is great even if the sets look fake.

@theincomparable Also, not really spy, but why no Horatio Hornblower? Excellent series.

@theincomparable @dloehr I would also recommend “Reilly Ace of Spies” which I _think_ is British… Made by Thames.

@theincomparable @dloehr Excellent excellent show, where action sequences are people shuffling papers. Mysterious back story to the show too

I mean Christ! How am *I* supposed to know that your infant passport only lasts 2 years!

Isn’t it great how just a few days before international travel you always realize someone in your family hasn’t renewed their passport? 🙀

International roaming with Bell is WAYYYYY too expensive.

Replying to @thejonotron
Oh yeah. $3 a day and it activates when I connect to the network. I think I get 200MB of data per day, which is enough for maps

Certainly. But being one of those guys I do detect a lot of ignorance amongst my peers. That should be called out, at least.

Replying to @AsherJKlassen
The guy I saw looked like @johndelancie, but with no beard. Maybe just a coincidence but, the resemblance was striking.

Replying to @mrteacup
Yep, that one made me skip a beat too. Also, the comment that says “Where is the arrogance == good part?”

Totally thought I saw @johndelancie at the local Starbucks in Kelowna this morning. Star Trek TNG? Breaking Bad? My Little Pony??? Epic.

SHIELD certainly ended on a high note. Still rate Arrow better though. I prefer cheese to high production value I guess.

Marvel gets the movies right, but so far DC wins on the TV shows. Though, more shows this fall could change that pattern.
