  • It’s broadcast seasons vs how many purchases (“episode orders”) were made. Fox aired 5 but paid for 4 (held back some episodes), then the movies, Comedy Central aired across 4 seasons but made 2 episode orders, and now Hulu split their first order across 2 aired seasons.

    Aired: 5 Fox, 1 movies, 4 CC, 2 Hulu -> season 12.

    Orders: 4 Fox, 1 movies, 2 CC, 1 Hulu -> Season 8.

    (Hulu made a second episode order already, but since that wouldn’t start until at least next year I didn’t count it. Assuming it’s split again, it’ll be seasons 13+14 or 9.)










  • Star Trek DS9: Crossroads of Time on Super Nintendo.

    My favorite memory of it was from the first day: a friend telling me I couldn’t use the same phaser twice against Borg drones. I was confident they wouldn’t put a detail like like that in a game. Not two seconds later, the very next drone blocked my phaser. (Clearly one of Trek’s ongoing lessons in the arrogance of man. Ahem.)

    Seems silly looking back to think game devs wouldn’t care as much (or more!) as I did about Star Trek to add in ideas like that.
