True Detective: Night Country: Part 4 (2024)
Tell me you know nothing about Alaskan Culture without say so.
Not saying this town is a totally accurate Northern AK town, but definitely a blend of many villages and smaller communities. The spiritual nature, the problems with domestic violence, the angst about resource development that financially feeds the town while causing hazards. The riot gear was a bit over the top and the only riot gone bad like that is something I'd see in the Matsu Valley.
Does it make total sense? Heck no. But live in darkness like that for a long time, and trust me nothing does. After 6 months of darkness you are indeed hallucinating moose and asking them for guidance across the tundra.
For those of us who know the damage from living here, the message is clear.
Star Trek: The Next Generation: Contagion (1989)
Did you turn it off and turn it on again?
A straightforward case of a computer virus, but the real meat and potatoes is watching the system deteriorate and its affect on the Enterprise and Romulan crews.
The on surface action had enough twists, again with humor, and it was nice to see Picard in action. And while they explained the solution to making the ship functional in fancy Star Trek speak, I was just waiting for Jen, Maurice, and Roy from the IT crowd to wander in and laugh and how long it took for them to diagnose a system reboot.
Though Counselor Deanna Troi laments,"In another time and place, this could be funny", this episode has a great mix of humor and suspense that is written well for a group centric episode.
