Yeah, what if they just couldn't get Patrick Stewart in for many lines due scheduling reasons or something?

It was my understanding that they get people like Stewart to record their lines for several episodes well in advance.

I don't know maybe something else then, what do you want from me? My point is that it's unlikely that TBS was hostile to Stewart in some way like that guy described in his fantasy meeting between the two

I'll admit I'm one of those people who prefer shows with continuity, so I'll admit McFarlane shows often bug me in that regard(indeed this applies to a lot of shows)

It's okay, my nephew's like that too, but the meds have helped a lot.

How to Use You're and Your

Mistaking "you're" for "your" - or vice versa - is a common writing error most people have made at least once. It is also a grammatical mistake that can be disproportionately irritating and confusing for the reader. Fortunately, once you know how to differentiate the two, you'll hardly ever mix them up ever again.

1. Understand the proper usage of the word you need. The best way to do that is to sound it out. There is a replacement test that will tell you for certain which word will fit. Read the sentence with you are in place of where the your/you're is intended. If it makes sense, then you're would be right. If not, then your would fit. You could also replace your with my in the sentence. If it fits, then use your.

2. Create a mnemonic to help you distinguish between the words. A mnemonic is a device that helps you remember something. You may find a mnemonic helpful when remembering the difference between you're and your. Elements such as parallelism and vivid imagery are usually effective mnemonic tools.

Consider the sentence "If you're writing it you're, you're writing it right." You are doing something when you write, and thus the contraction you're is correct.
You could also try something like the sentence "Your Outraged Unicorns Race," where the first letter of each word spells out the correct usage. Because the unicorns belong to you, they're your unicorns.

3. Write you're as a contraction or a combination of the words you and are. Other examples of contractions include doesn't for does not, they're for they are, and can't for cannot.

"You're a good friend" means "You are a good friend."
"I don't know what you're talking about" means "I do not know what you are talking about."

4. Remember that you're is actually a combination of two words. It thus fulfills two very important roles in a sentence or clause. Because it includes both a pronoun and a verb, you're will always be the subject and at least part of the verb of any clause in which it appears.

5. Write your as the possessive form of you. The possessive form refers to something that a person has, something that belongs to the person in question, or the person you are talking to. Your reflects ownership, as in "yours, mine, and ours".

"Is your stomach growling?"
"Your book is on the table."

6. Remember that the word your will usually not be followed by an adjective. In most cases, your will not be followed by an adjective (a word that describes something) when that adjective is describing the person that you are talking to.

In other words, saying "Your very kind" will almost never be correct. "Your very kind" would only be correct if someone were describing a noun, as in "Your nice son brought me my coat." Here, your nice is correct because nice is describing the person's son.

7. Take a look at some examples. Each of the following examples shows an incorrect use of your/you're, and why it is incorrect.

"I can't read you're handwriting."
Incorrect, because the contraction for you are is being used in place of the possessive form of you. "I can't read you are handwriting"' doesn't make sense. It should be replaced with your.

"If your hungry, then you should probably eat something."
Incorrect because there is no possession in question. You can be hungry, but in English you don't possess hunger. This passes the replacement test. Rewriting it with you are fits. Your should be replaced here with you're, or you are.

"I think your very smart."
Again, incorrect. The "very smart" does not belong to the person that you are talking to � this doesn't make any sense. Replace your with you're, or you are.

"I'm smarter than you're"
Correct, because the contraction for you are has been used in place of the possessive form of you. However, this unconventional usage is likely to confuse people, so avoid ending a sentence with you're even if it's grammatically correct.

Yeah that was a great ep. They've been really killing it so far.

Seriously, this season's been great and last episode was gold. So does that mean we don't get another episode for four months as per the normal trend?

Oh wow they are actually doing the continuation next week. That's going to be something special.

I'm really glad they're continuing it. I was nervous when Francine said something like "Every week is a new beginning!" near the end of the episode because I thought they were just going to quickly reset the continuity.

Is it just me or is this season filled with winners so far? How is this possible with a show this old? Simpsons couldn't even make it this long.

Like you just knew it was going to the Roger from the get go, but the way they ended it was perfect.

FlamingLiberal posted:

Absolutely a perfect ending. Loved how Hayley just says nothing and walks up the stairs after she finds out it's just Roger again

I liked that they made the reveal by just showing the untied ropes and Hayley's bemused look. That's all we need at this point in the series.

that's quite the thesis ^

The Orville's really good and the guy who voices Steve in AD has a main role. It's definitely not FG in space and there's clearly a lot of work put into the writing + production
