Stargate Atlantis S2E16 "The Long Goodbye"

I employed a little bit of creative license here in order to make this work better as a 4-panel "comic" with the knowing glances of the ridiculously attractive people as the punchline. Full original dialog:

RONON: So people just sit and watch this box for hours at a time?
JOHN: Yeah, people do.
TEYLA: Is it that engaging?
JOHN: Depends what's on it. There are lots of programs on dozens of channels, every day, all day.
RODNEY: Most of which are fictional representations of ridiculously attractive people in absurd situations.
JOHN: There are educational programs, all sorts of documentaries. Not many people watch 'em but, uh, well, they're on.
RONON: And that's what everybody on your planet does for entertainment? Watch a box?

There are some good shows though, like Wormhole X-treme

Don't they also make a Jeopardy/double jeopardy joke too?

RONON: And that's what everybody on your planet does for entertainment? Watch a box?
RODNEY: Not everyone -- although I will confess to the occasional half hour of Jeopardy.
RONON: Jeopardy?
RODNEY: It's the name of the show -- "Jeopardy".
RONON: Sounds dangerous.
JOHN: Double jeopardy -- that's twice as dangerous.

But if you do really good fictional representations of the absurd situations - or are especially attractive - you get to do more fictional representations on a bigger screen.

Crazy what a little HGH can do to a guy

Hot take: Films should be made with the ugluest people so that you'd only watch them if there is an enough good plot and so.

Casting call: If you fuck, get fucked.

[–] TargaryenTKE@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

We make those too... sometimes... though admittedly they usually become hot again at some point in the 3rd act
