I’m irritated that the Squirrels first trip up here is the same weekend the Giants are in town. That means I either have to wait another month or actually make the trip down to Richmond, and I’m not crazy about either option.

Early candidate for worst movie ever?
LOS ANGELES – Will Smith and son Jaden are teaming up again on the big-screen.
The two last starred together in the 2006 drama “The Pursuit of Happyness.” They will work together in an as-yet-untitled science-fiction adventure for Columbia Pictures, a unit of Sony Corp.
M. Night Shyamalan is directing and co-writing the movie starring the 42-year-old father and his 12-year-old son. Shyamalan also directed “The Sixth Sense” and “The Last Airbender.”
Sony said Monday that the movie centers on a boy struggling to save himself and his estranged father after their ship crashes on an abandoned Earth a thousand years in the future.
As they did on their son’s 2010 hit, “The Karate Kid,” Will and Jada Pinkett Smith will be producers on the new movie.

The writing on the show is getting better! They managed convergent A and B stories! That’s real progress!
The film-making is also getting better. There was one really effective show with Sinclair walking a circle.

I’m starting to genuinely like a few of the characters. Ivanova is cool and Delenn has been pretty interesting.
Most of the aliens are still pretty silly, though. And Sinclair.

"Reassigned"
At a certain point, the series creator writes something like 35 episodes straight. That’s when the show really gets going. It’s a remarkable achievement, and I think one unequaled in the history of television.

I’m not sure if Netflix is giving me the exact right order. Wikipedia says I should have seen an episode called Survivors by now, but I haven’t. And it says I should not have seen one called Grail, which I have. Mostly, though, it appears to be in order.
