Choose! vs Choose! vs Choose! vs Choose! vs I'm going McKay, Eli, FIVE, and 7 of 9. You?
After the Fall by Edward Ashton 16 titles into this 2026 sci-fi reading list and - finally - a truly fun read. It's been a long time since a science fiction novel delighted me as much as this one. Part alien invasion story, part buddy comedy, and part workplace satire Would humans really make…

Slowly getting back into the Toronto swing of things. Spent the weekend writing, organizing my tax documents, sorting mail, and responding to emails. Today, the writers' room resumed (via zoom for me). At some point, I need to make a few tweaks to a pilot and an overview, and start talking to other writes/directors about…
As much as I hated returning to cold and dreary Toronto, Sharky was surprisingly happy to be back, literally skipping down the carpeted hallway to our condo last night. Cucumber pug... Helping me do the dishes... Hiding out with dad... My spellchecker... Super sniffer... Bidding his friends farewell... Sharky, the avid traveler...
A full travel day saw us leave our L.A. apartment at 9:00 am (local time) and finally arrive in our Toronto home by 10:30 pm (local time). And so, after two and a half glorious months in sunny Los Angeles, we are back! Back in cold, dreary, drab, rainy Toronto. And I couldn't be more…
Sad but true. Our time in L.A. has drawn to an end and (I can't believe I'm saying this) I'm going to miss it. Surprisingly. To be honest, up until this stay, I haven't been a huge fan of Los Angeles. Much of it had to do with the fact that, in the past, whenever…
Chew out this magnificent 12-person crew. We have a ship, a Captain, a First Officer, a Science Officer, a Chief Medical Officer, a Chief Engineer, an Ace Pilot, a Negotiator, a ship AI, a Chief of Security, an Away Team Leader, a Pilot/Helmsman, and an Enforcer. Next, the search for our ship's Techie begins! Suggestions?…
It's all come down to this very difficult Sophie's Choice. Choose! vs What do you think? I'm going to have to go.....Teal'c. A few comic book covers that caught my eye this week... Daredevil #1 - cover art by Gabriele Dell'otto Daredevil #1 - cover art by Jackson Sze Eternals: 50th Anniversary Special #1 -…
Honey Bunch When Diana wakes from a coma with memory loss, she and her husband seek experimental treatments at a remote facility. My thoughts: Ultimately interesting, but the fact that it plays like a Canadian movie from the 70's works to its determent. 2.5/5 Heel Boy A 19-year-old criminal, Tommy, is kidnapped and forced into…
Choose! vs Choose! vs With all due respect to the other sci-fi franchises, I'm going with my boys Ronon and Teal'c, setting up a very tough championship. And you?
Sometimes, he just can't relax... Doing his thing... Repuglique! And still undefeated... The impatient diner... You shall not pass! Laugh therapy with Sharky...
BEST: Chicken-crusted taco WORST: Canned pasta water
