Are Chuck's reviews better than ever?

This forum is for discussing Chuck's videos as they are publicly released. And for bashing Neelix, but that's just repeating what I already said.

Are Chuck's reviews better than ever?

Post by Yukaphile »

Got into a debate about this recently, and a lot of comparisons to the Golden Age vs. the Silver Age went through my mind, so one thing I'm curious you guys might think is... have Chuck's reviews only gotten better with time? Aged like a fine wine? And I speak as someone who prefers Silver Age to Golden Age.

Thoughts?

Chuck's reviews have been of a pretty consistent quality throughout, IMHO, even with the tonal shifts that he has himself remarked upon. And honestly, Yuka, aren't you getting a bit... maybe not obsessed, but devoted to this subject?

Not really... just trying to generate new topics for discussion here. Honestly.

No, he's most definitely obsessed.

... you know what? Just to prove how wrong you are, how NOT obsessed with this I am... I'm not gonna comment on this or these topics anymore. You guys wanna discuss them, fine. That was my intent. But I'm gonna withdraw from it. Not that I can't get obsessed, which I am aware of, but in this case, you're wrong.

Right...

Is Chuck scaling down the tone of his video content for the best or worst?

What do you consider the Golden Age of SF Debris reviews?

Pretty much the same thread three times in a row with several posts I won't bother to look up in other threads, leading into the exact same direction. Your lack of self-awareness is baffling at times.

Chuck only gets better reviews and research because we simple are supporting him with not just money for his house but info of the sci-fi shows he asks us on social media to get more inside help, he is an expert of ST & SW stuff but there is no way in Hell, Heaven, Oli-barro(old Japan hell/limbo), apocalyptic earth, or alternative earth Chuck is a Master of all things Sci-Fi. Be aware that the man has a 24-Terra_gig memory capacity that all humans have and learning all things sci-fi will eventually kill him, and not in the overwhelming seizure either.

He’s been doing these reviews for what, over two decades now? I’d certainly hope he’s got better over that time. :D
