Hello Frequent Flyers and Welcome aboard our 101st flight, Game of Thrones.

Just like a meteor, GoT burst onto the television set and beheaded our expectations, and favourite characters.

Between dire wolves, the death of character archetypes, and wanting to punch someone in the face SO MUCH, your flight crew goes to Winterfell, and waits for it to Winterfall.

Hello Frequent Flyers, You find us out amongst the stars. Welcome to our latest episode, Star Trek: The Next Generation.

Stardate - 21.1201762 (Shut up stardates are hard)

Our mission: To discover the pilot episode of ST:TNG. My crew are determined to uncover the mystery of Far Point Station by not addressing it at all, and instead focusing on the Kangaroo court that Captain Picard finds himself in. While he's harassed by a super evolved being named the Q, the crew, particularly Fearless Flyer, get's super concerned that we need to call HR. 

What does Star Fleet say in the handbook for harassment?

HellOOoooOOOOoo Frequent Flyers, and Welcome aboard our 99th episode, Teen Wolf.


We're back in High School, and it's as tough as ever. Sometimes you just don't fit in, and it has nothing to do with the time you went crawling through the woods with your bestie looking for half a corpse and then got bitten by a werewolf. 

Ok, maybe it has something to do with that. 
But look, puberty is tough - you get hair in places there wasn't hair before...and...wow that's...everywhere. Your palms? Bro...

And you start to notice people in a different way. Like the new girl in class, whose dad shot you with a crossbolt...and...

damn Wolfager, puberty super sucks for you.

Howdy Frequent Flyers and welcome aboard this here rig, Flight 98, Firefly.

Sometimes you don't win the battle, but you keep fightin' that there war. Sometimes you never leave Serenity Valley, but you take it with you. Keep stickin' it to the Alliance, with your rag tag bunch of rule-breaking ruffians, their Shepherd, a fancy Doctor, and his rescued sister, and keep runnin'.


And if you keep runnin', maybe you'll find what it is you stay for.
