Ok, so b-movies are considered low-budget and whatnot. But what would it be called for TV shows? Soon-to-be-cancelled-budget?

example?

Another Life. So bad it was good?

Never heard of that show.

It's on Netflix. It's the soap opera of scifi. A weird guilty pleasure. The first 8 episodes aren't good. The last two get much better and I'm hoping they get another season to answer some of the questions they put forth.

I liked all but one or two.

Wow - 8 bad episodes? I give a show 4 episodes, if they can't make something by then, I drop them normally. Only 2 decent shows in a season of 10, not sure it's worth it.

The Orville was like this - the first 3 episodes weren't great, but they started to get their legs by episode 4 and now they are part of my normal line up - sucks I have to wait until mid to late 2020 for season 3... but at least there will be a season 3.

Yeah, the weird part for me is I couldn't stop watching it. Katee Sackhoff is the main character and she's pretty much on point the entire series.

Oh, now that you name drop - I heard the show was meh - something about what they wear on the show - they made some lame excuse why people wear odd clothes and other weird things like that.... I haven't seen it, that's just one of the comments I heard about it.

I don't think she qualifies as a name drop. This is her first starring role, lol.

really? Most people know her from Battlestar Galactica (the new one).

Also - my main point in saying that was - oh.. now that I see a name of someone in the show I recognize, I have at least heard about the show, even if I didn't know the know of the show.

She was one of the main characters in Battlestar Galactica.

Most certainly not. She played Starbuck FFS....

Dashrender

If you are part of an ensemble, are you consider to be in a staring role? I could see it either way.

In any regards, for most seasons I'd say she was the female lead (for one or two.. .the woman who played the president was)... though I suppose the Cylon woman (women) could be listed as leads...

Okay, I'll give you that.

Got Season 4 of Taxi on in the background while I'm doing all kinds of system updates.

Oh yeah, I was thinking she was a side part. I guess she didn't make much of an impression on me. Not that she wasn't good, just didn't remember her more than a side part.
