Ask Lemmy

I'd like to see Sega come out with a modern console just to see what they would come up with

The boondocks

Candy bars when they were their original full size and before they adulterated the recipes to cut costs

Galavant, it was a show that only lasted ~~a season,~~ two seasons, but was just kind of a medieval-era musical drama/comedy that didn't take itself too seriously.

The songs were catchy, the characters were a little corny but grew on you, and the actors could sing fairly well. But, ~~it only got one season and ended on a cliffhanger, so we'll never know what could have been~~ I think it deserved one more season to bring some closure to some things. :/

🎶Way back in days of old, there was a legend told, about a hero known as Galavant🎶

Edit: another user pointed out a few things I was wrong about, edited to correct.

Probably showing my age here, but OK Soda. That stuff was great.

Close runner up was Josta, which was briefly the official drink of GWAR (at least according to GWAR).

PT. A horror game from Kojima and Guillermo Del Toro and from the Silent Hill series? Yes please

I’ll go withe some more niche ones

• Limitless
• Lie To Me
• Dollhouse

Warcraft and StarCraft series not including World of Warcraft

Lays had some chocolate covered potato chips that would come out around the holidays. I didn't care for them myself, but my wife loved them and I miss buying them for her

Pringles Schezuan BbQ potato chips. In the purple bag. Those were the bomb.

Photosphere. Fuck you Google.

Shark gummies. Idk what they were actually called, but they were the most delicious gummies. Some were opaque and milky colored, others weren't. I don't think they were associated with Street Sharks but maybe they were. I crave them.

Canadian here. Chocolate company Laura Secord made a chocolate bar called the Royale. Or Mint Royale? Something like that. Basically a "solid" mint milk chocolate bar that would just melt in your mouth. Those things were fantastic.

When I was 16 (now late 30s for reference) they sold off the chocolate bar to Nestlé Canada. Who immediately changed the recipe to use, I assume, cheaper chocolate. Maybe cheaper everything. It was never the same and after a year or two they just disappeared, never to be seen again.

My first experience with enshittification I guess.

HBO’s Rome

Sarah Connor chronicles, Stargate Universe just of the top of my head, they weren't anything special but still enjoyed watching them and would have liked to see how they would have wrapped it up, a closure of sorts instead of leaving them in limbo like Half-Life.

Stargate Universe, Alphas and Dark Matter. All left on cliffhangers. Sometimes I wonder if the writers see the writing on the wall on the cancelation and pull this shit to see if people get a petition going to have their show come back.

I always thought discontinuing the 3ds series was stupid. Nintendo switch is good and all but there is something about this console

Jericho, I remember fans sent in tons of peanuts to the studio as a protest.

Hard copies of media. I loved my tape collection.

Daredevil. I'm thrilled its coming back with the same cast.

The Owl House and Odwalla Rocket Juice. HL2 EP3 in it's full form.

Sense8. We got a finale, but cramming 3 seasons into 2 hours showed.

The Stargate series. They should make Stargate Ancients.

Peanut Lovers Chex Mix; the regular Chex mix is just fine but Peanut Lovers was on a different level.

Manual transmissions in the United States.

Avatar The Last Airbender.

61 episodes was far too few. That show could have rivaled Simpsons if they let it.

Miiverse on the Wii U. Every games felt like a community. You could share tips, screenshots, etc… some games even had integrations like chat bubbles in Mario Maker. I always went out of my way to pick up a message in a bottle in Windwaker.

When they shut it down, the console main screen felt VERY empty and each players, very alone (You can spare the jokes about how we were alone anyway since it didn’t sell well)
