Had to bring my mom to Northern VA today; so while she was at the function she came for I went and saw Spidey 2. Loved it. Forgot how expensive movies are up here.

We don't know the full affects of Obamacare because of all the waivers in effect in year one. Once those go away we will get a better picture. Also, whether it stays or goes depends on who wins in 2016. Dems win the Presidency as expected; then Obamacare will become a permanent fixture of the land. It will be modified but it will remain. The GOP wins full control in 2016, then they repeal it though better have something to replace the popular benefits because by 2017 that will be 3 full years and I don't think people will want gone then.

To put you in the mood for the upcoming NFL Draft, you may want to check out "Draft Day". It's was alright. Of course for the poor Clevelanders; what happens in the movies can't happen in real ife. I just came from seeing that tonight and I liked it.

Just came from seeing that. I agree, it was Awesome. Actually, it was better than Thor 2. Love the scene during the credits. Is that previewing Avengers 2?

Yeah, a Frinday night staple: Grimm gets a Season 4. http://www.oregonlive.com/movies/index.ssf/2014/03/grimm_renewed_for_season_4_by.html

Future series, airing this fall on CW. SuperNatural: Bloodlines. http://blog.zap2it.com/frominsidethebox/2014/03/supernatural-spinoff-changes-title-to-supernatural-bloodlines-casts-melissa-roxburgh-as-final-series.html

I think Rick Berman already did that. They milked Trek until it ran into the ground.

I met Kate Mulgrew at a Trek Convention the year her husband was running for governor.

TNG didn't hit it's stride until the third season. Season 1 was partially redoing some of the classic series stories plus I think they did some of the scripts from the aborted Star Trek II series. TNG could've easily made it to 10 seasons before hanging up but Paramount got greedy. I would love to see Babylon 5's JMS's take on the show.

i am changing my thread to acommpanying all things Star Trek. News,Movies,TV, Merchandise, Etc.... Will leave the original post and question: Star Trek: It's almost time for a return to the small screen or is it? 2012 saw the 50th anniversary of James Bond. 2013 saw the 50th annivesary of Doctor Who. Another big 50th anniversary is almost upon us. 2016 will be the 50th anniversary of Star Trek. Star Trek:TNG will celebrate it's 30th anniversary in 2017. Last year was DS9's 20th anniversary. Star Trek 3 should be out by 2016, I think they want to have the next movie out for the 50th anniversary. I am thinking that by 2016/2017 enough time will have passed from Star Trek Enterprise- 11/12 years that a return to the small screen for Star Trek would be welcome. OF course, what kind of show would bring Star Trek back to the small screen? Would it be a reimagined version of the original show with all new cast, seperate from the current and classic Trek movies? Would it be something in the Star Trek Universe but related to the original series or it's sequels: TNG,DS9,Voyager? Would it be something in the Star Trek Universe but related to the modern movie series? I just feel the time is right for another TV show in the Star Trek universe.

I've seen a few episodes of Burn Notice, pretty good.

http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2014/01/23/browns-officially-announce-mike-pettine-as-new-coach/ Well, the coaching search is over. Browns have them a new coach in Mike Pettine.

Still open- the Browns job. I recommend they hire Jim Zorn.

You sure McDaniels was offered the job? Thought he withdrew because he wasn't really in the running. People said the Redskins was the worst job out there?

http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2014/01/15/vikings-hire-mike-zimmer-as-next-head-coach/ Zimmer got the job. Just the pathetic Browns are left.

Alot of the great American shows are based off of British shows.

But they aren't as bad as Minny or Cleveland.
