TNG would be dead on arrival today because people expect better from seaosn 1's.
i have a no fat diet, i don't try to watch all the great movies from across the world all at once.
So now they play it safe (TNG season 1 was 80s anyway).
There's more influencing someone's perceptions about film and TV than just what you see. Even if you hardly watch anything it's still harder to be interested in yet another show.

I do wonder what those that defend behavior like that on internet would say if roles were reversed and it was woman who went all bad touch on man.
Well, if a woman groped a man, a man should be allowed to do whatever a woman can do to a male groper.
There's a word for saying "we get allowed to do this, but you can't." It starts with "hypo." You might be familiar with it.
Sure. After all groping without consent is wrong no matter member of gender that is doing it to member of other gender or even member of same gender doing it. Sure they can be those that allow it but it's just common sense not to do it without knowing that.
That last part seemed like jab at me because you do seem to like to make assumptions about other people based on do they agree with you or not.
Yes and no. You seem to like throwing "hypocrisy" around a lot, and I wanted to make sure you weren't trying to give different rules for men and women.

I'm fine with legally punitive measures being equated. But on a general social level, it's stupid to equivocate consideration across sexes without due consideration of physical power dynamics.
Huh... That last part I wrote is more concerning using physical conduct in response, but I guess maybe it could just apply in a more physically intimidating or domineering aspect, maybe...

Yes, I miss the 1990s. Flaws aside, like the lack of LGBT representation, there were lots of great actors and fully fleshed out characters back then. Not so much now.
Brother there might be 10 times as many ongoing tv series now compared to the 90s. i have no idea what you are talking about.
You also gained more access to tv series and cinema from all across the world.
What do you mean there are no great actors now?
Quality, not quantity please! And even if you've got the same quality too much and it just becomes another bit of the routine. It's like food. Have an unhealthy treat occasionally and it's something special, with no downsides. Get it all the time and it's great at first but becomes routine and nothing special, and you get fat.

...okay I can't really argue with that.

It’s funny how a deleted scene is talked about as if it’s been part of the film the whole time.
Of all deleted scenes in film, I think the most ruinous (if kept in) was the original ending to TITANIC with its incredibly on the nose dialogue and overacting. It’s amazing that it was actually shot, because it doesn’t feel like it belongs in the film at all. Had it been left in would have given it a bad last impression.
The T2 original ending isn’t too terrible, but it’s quite amazing how dated it already looked in 1991. It looks like Marty McFly’s future only without the satire. Also leaving it out gives the film an ending that’s both optimistic and ominous with the shot of the road at night.
