Movie question

[edit]

Will there be no more star trek films since Anton_Yelchin just died? 2001:569:766D:AB00:8D2E:4C0A:9F12:A76C (talk) 04:03, 21 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Seems unlikely to make a difference, to me. That's a relatively minor character, and not even the original actor, so the character could either be dropped or played by another actor. StuRat (talk) 04:26, 21 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Why should it? The death of Leonard Nimoy didn't stop them. Wymspen (talk) 09:50, 21 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I would like tv show recommendations for the following tv series?

[edit]

Any mythological TV series: Xena, Hercules, Young Hercules Spartacus, Rome or Atlantis_(TV_series). Nothing to childish or complex. Spartacus and Rome were kinda hard to follow. Also any similar shows to The L Word and Queer As Folk. Especially current ones. 2001:569:766D:AB00:8D2E:4C0A:9F12:A76C (talk) 04:10, 21 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Rowan Atkinson's show(s) Blackadder ? (More historical than mythological.) Or Buffy the Vampire Slayer ? StuRat (talk) 04:19, 21 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
LGBT shows are still rather rare, but perhaps Ellen (in the later years) would qualify. Gay characters can be found in a number of shows, though, such as Modern Family. StuRat (talk) 04:23, 21 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
The New Adventures of Robin Hood and The Adventures of Sinbad are both noted to be similar in tone to Xena: Warrior Princess and Hercules: The Legendary Journeys. Rojomoke (talk) 05:06, 21 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Game of Thrones is loosely based on history (and dragons) and has several major (and minor) gay characters. Large scope, though, so kinda hard to follow. InedibleHulk (talk) 05:30, 21 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Legend of the Seeker was kind of a fun, light-hearted fantasy similar to Xena et al. SemanticMantis (talk) 14:30, 21 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, I was trying to think of the name of that one so I could recommend it, too. StuRat (talk) 00:47, 25 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
