George, maybe a little more?

First, you must recite a decade of the Rosary, then you must acquire....a shrubbery!!!!

(They share a wiki, they share a continuity, works for me.) The writers are trying to do what works for them. As much as I like the shrinking thing, they may think it's too zany, unrealistic, and so on to use. (Star Trek:DS9 had a problem with credibility with their shrinking episode, for example.) I did like that the exoskeletal armor was an offshot of one iteration of Project:OMAC, and since it was, was also an acronym. ("Advanced Technology Operating Mechanism.") (There was another Arrow episode? Nuts, I need to get that.)

Finally hit a movie where I knew someone else besides the actor used to continue the link. Jenna Elfman Looney Tunes-Back in Action Steve Martin

"Drop on out and spread the news. Yeah, did somebody say keep on rockin'? Hope you all know what I'm talkin' about. The way they wiggle that thing really knocks me out. Gettin' high all the time, hope you all are too. C'mon little closer gonna do it to you."

"Anybody can fly plane, now here: I'll check you out. Put your little hands on the wheel there. Now put your feet on the rudder. There. Who says this ol' boy can't fly this ol' plane? Now I'm gonna make us some Old Fashioneds the old-fashioned way - the way dear old Dad used to!" "What if something happens?" "What could happen to an Old Fashioned?" "If you can, give us your position. Who is flying the plane?" "What do you mean 'who's flying the plane'? Nobody's flying the plane!" "We're the ones with the Imperial, and we're running last?" "Then what happens next? I'll tell you what happens: Then they all decide that I'm supposed to get a smaller share! That I'm somebody extra special stupid, or something! That they don't even care if it's a democracy! And in a democracy, it don't matter how stupid you are, you still get an equal share!" "1: I wish I knew what they're going to do to us. But no matter what happens to us... what happens to you, I hope will be worse!" 2: "I don't think you have to worry too much about that. My wife is divorcing me, my mother-in-law is suing me for damages, my daughter is applying to the courts to have her name changed, my pension has been revoked. And the only reason that you 10 idiots will very LIKELY get off LIGHTLY, is because the judge will have me up there to throw the book at!" 3: "Oh, that's tough. Oh ho ho ho." 2: "I'd like to think that sometime, maybe 10 or 20 years from now, there'd be something I could laugh at... Anything." "Look! We've figured it seventeen different ways, and every time we figured it, it was no good, because no matter how we figured it, somebody don't like the way we figured it! So now, there's only one way to figure it. And that is, every man, including the old bag, for himself!" "So good luck, and may the best man win!" "Right! Except you,lady. May you just drop dead!"

So Raf is up.

Mrs Wolf and I both agree Cold didn't tell Mick nor Lisa. (BTW, the Mrs stopped me when Cisco was getting hit on in the bar, and asked me if that was Snart's sister. I stopped, noted the same name and correct hair color, and we both figured this was the bad guys making a run on Cisco, or at least Lisa making a run on Cisco. The wig, BTW, makes sense since, in the comics, a brother and sister have radically different hair colors. In this case, that was due to a style decision and a wig. As for Flash's deal with Len Snart, we didn't like it either. The only time I liked such a deal was the excellent Epilogue to the awful "Hush" storyline. Riddler was in jail, and Batman visited him. Riddler had used a Lazarus Pit, and the bout of insanity allowed him to figure out Bruce was Batman. So, when Riddler threatened to tell others, Batman replied with "What time is it when an elephant sits on a fence?" Riddler said EVERYONE knew that one. Batman noted that the Riddler finds riddles worthless when everyone knows the answer. And, Batman was ready to let the League of Assassins know who partially used up one of their Lazarus Pits if Riddler talked. Since then, Riddler's lost that information.

That's not what was said. The article was not written by "the person that is behind the program", it was for "Gospel Herald." THAT article was based on something written on PANTHEOS, and THAT author mentioned twi, so the GH writer did, also. The GH article http://www.gospelherald.com/articles/54867/20150324/the-way-new-faith-based-drama-coming-to-hulu-from-the-team-behind-parenthood.htm linked directly to the Pantheos one. http://www.patheos.com/blogs/kateohare/2015/03/parenthood-creator-jason-katims-explores-faith-in-the-way-for-hulu/ The Pantheos one didn't require a lot of research. In fact, if they had done the following, they would have gotten the same result, so the MIGHT have done exactly this... A) Read about Hulu's new show. B) Noted the name of a religion called "The Way." C) Gone directly to Wikipedia and typed in "The Way". D) Gotten the disambiguation page for "the way" E) Read there that it was "an early term for early Christianity" and "a Christian denomination founded by Victor Paul Wierwille". F) Written both down, then clicked on the Wikipedia link for the Wikipedia page, then jotted down notes from the opening paragraphs. To those who are internet-savvy, that can be about 20-30 seconds of "hard research." The internet has made information that required hours of research available in seconds or minutes, often. I like that.

MRAP, while everyone's entitled to disagree with each other, and disagree strongly, it's not usually considered polite discourse, nor worthy of the GSC, for insults and cheap-shots. They may make the person slinging them feel better, and others may even agree with them, but they don't advance discussion. Despite having been on the receiving end of one, don't take that as an indication that it's typical, de rigeur, or expected here. (There may come a time where it is, but that time is not now.) So, please don't consider that typical, please don't respond in kind, please don't think that's a license to do the same to others even if you consider them complete chowderheads. (Even if they turn out to BE complete chowderheads, it's impolite to say so.)

That would work. I prefer my method, which, I suspect, is more common. When you're logged in, and if a thread isn't locked, all posts have a little link at the end marked "Reply." So, I log in, scroll to the post, then click "Reply" IN THE POST. (Not "add reply" in a little box underneath the thread-that's for replying to the thread without a quote.) What happens then is that a new post opens, with the entire post I replied to in it, with a header at the top and bottom that provide a link to the original post, and who posted it, when, and so on. Then I pick what I wanted to quote and respond to. Everything else, I delete, carefully. I put "(snip)" wherever I did a cut (before or after) to announce it was part of the whole post. For the full post, anyone can click on the link in the header to read the entire thing. (So, I'm being honest and open about it.) If I want to reply to different things, I type in the word "quote" before and after each section, in brackets, with a "/"in front of the one closing it. So, I type /quote when closing a quote, in these brackets- [ ] If I have a matching header of quote in brackets higher up, then everything between the two gets enclosed in the quote heading. If it seems like work, it gets a lot easier after it's done a few times, and, so long as you don't put a large amount of headers in a single post, it works fine. It also is the best way to be fully honest when quoting, since people can click to what you're quoting, and you separate what you quote from your own response. (At least one poster cronically refuses to do that when debating, and I find it objectionable on several levels, since it's obvious it's deliberate after over a decade of practice.)

No.

Ok, we saw it. I don't know if Raf did. I was a little disappointed about the episode's method of handling time travel. It's inconsistent with what we already know from the series.

I'm not sure what you, personally, would feel you need to know. This entire subforum includes a lot about the entire tableau. Personally, I'd start by reviewing either the Momentus or Personal Prophecy fiascoes- both what happened, and, just as important- how they were dealt with. Momentus was a pop program, of dubious quality and shady practices- to which CES' leaders became hardcore-committed. They adopted its jargon, pushed for applications and attendance, and set up a tiered ministry where those who refused to enroll were seen as lesser members and suspect (suspect of what, I don't know, probably a lack of commitment), and where questioning the program at all was responded to in a hostile fashion. That continued until Momentus blew up in their faces. In private, JAL and others continued to advertise the thing years later. (For all I know, they may still advertise it secretly.) Personal Prophecy was the license for someone to come up, decide something about you, announce it, announce it was from God providing they made it sound like a dream, prophecy or prediction like Harry Potter's Divination teacher, and expect you to go along. To question any of that was announced to be questioning GOD ALMIGHTY and not simply a practice of an organization. Of course, when JAL started questioning it, that was a whole other thing entirely. JAl went from "thou shalt never question it" to "I began questioning it and a significant portion was error" in one step, and continued to insult the people who warned him about it for years because they questioned it AND his judgement. On one thread, we demonstrated Personal Prophecy, so don't think their practice was anything to be revered or even taken seriously. I enjoyed the thread and am quite proud to have participated in it.

No.

That's him/them. The Mel Brooks entry should have limited the field considerably, since he almost always appears in his own films, and his own films parody others but don't use the same names. That left 2 films of his where the characters appeared elsewhere. And Richard Benjamin didn't play Van Helsing himself, but a descendant who didn't use that name.

Is this "At the Hop"???

Nice to see you visit, Belle. *looks* My opinion is that it won't be INTENTIONALLY based on twi. twi's delusions of grandeur to the contrary, as we all know, Christians have used "the way" as a name for a very long time, with Bibles and all sorts of organizations using it. For that matter, others have used it too- that UFO-cult that killed themselves had a leader who called himself "Do"- which translates in English to "way" or "the way." I suspect this show will resemble a lot of twi here and there ACCIDENTALLY if it really tries to show cult life and a cult leader. We'll have to wait and see. Oh, and I hope twi makes a huge fuss over the show- they would provide all sorts of free advertising for it, of the type you can't buy.

There was another episode? Give us at least 24 hours. Apparently Agents of SHIELD aired one, also, so that's something else to add to my dance card after the Flash episode.
