REVIEWS:
Yochanan reviewed 3rd season of 'The Orville' on Hulu & considered it to be amazing & that the episodes were of varying lengths & he really enjoyed it & highly recommends it - Ken wholeheartedly agrees
& he also reviewed a Disney Plus show called 'Ms Marvel' as 'different & interesting' & slightly more juvenile than others in the Marvel line & is a good series, but not a great series - Rick followed-on that that there are a lot of nice little touches in the show & he enjoyed it; John O followed, saying that the source material is reasonably new, from the last decade & he likes that the character is young & has enjoyed the show & he highly recommends it - Chris O & Ken really loved it too

& Yochanan also reviewed Andre Norton's 'Time Traders' as a very good time travel novel - with several BASFAns following-on, agreeing the the book was very good & is the start of a series:
The Time Traders (1958)
Galactic Derelict (1959)
The Defiant Agents (1962)
Key Out of Time (1963)

Howeird reviewed all 6 episodes of CNN's 'Patagonia' as the series is exceptionally well-made & he highly, highly recommends it & feels it's worth full price, even with Cox cable. Duncan followed-on that it is almost surreal how well it is made

Rick reviewed the Netflix 'Sandman' adaptation as 10 episodes long that turned out to be excellent, albeit with uneven pacing and has an excellent cast. He has really enjoyed it
we adjourned at 8:57 pm
and the rumor of the week was = 'In the future, conspiracy theories regarding the long pause in the meeting minutes will abound'
