I don't know what to say that I haven't already said in the comments for individual seasons. Brooklyn Nine-Nine got into a bit of a slump near the end, as many sitcoms do. Perhaps it would have been better to delay production after scrapping the first four scripts of that final season in June 2021 instead of rushing ahead to release in August, but I can understand not wanting to push back what would be the show's final batch of episodes. Ultimately, I think the rush only affected the first few aired scripts, and the series still managed to end on a high note.
So what happened to Francis managing that dude's band? Thought he was gonna tour Europe with them.
TMDB has deleted this as a duplicate of the other entry, despite this one being for the blu-ray and the other being for a WOWOW broadcast that was cut down slightly.
As of writing (October 2022), this half-hour documentary is available to watch on YouTube, uploaded officially by its creators:

Life After Pi was supposed to be "the first chapter" of a feature-length documentary called Hollywood Ending, but there has been no word from the project's social media accounts since the short won a jury award at the 2016 Cleveland International Film Festival, and the feature film's website no longer exists.
Watchlisting, in large part, because this is early work for Tatiana Maslany (Orphan Black) and Elyse Levesque (Stargate Universe, and also a bit of Orphan Black). I can only hope to find the show somewhere.
Got through just over two hours of this in 48 hours total because of family dynamics, people not being willing to sit and watch the whole thing at once. YouTube rentals apparently really mean that you have 48 hours to finish once started. Doubtful that I'll ever bother going back to finish the last ten minutes, but I also won't rate or review without having seen the whole thing.
Not sure if the airplane I watched this on (why am I always half-asleep for these?!) had a cropped master, or if the director used cutting off the characters at the edges to make a statement about their lives and relationships to each other.
That cliffhanger ending though.
I kind of cared a little about the characters by the end. Sort of. A bit. I think I'd need to watch it again while fully awake to pick up the character moments I missed, so I'm not going to rate the movie this time. (Though I understand that there's a fair amount of consensus—if two out of two total reviews counts as such—among IMDB users that this movie's characters are just unredeemable.)
Note to future self: This was an "in the room" view, not a "real" one.
Since I loved the Japanese version of this (https://trakt.tv/movies/you-are-the-apple-of-my-eye-2018), I should put this older Chinese telling of the same story on my list of films to watch, eh?
20.5 minutes long, instead of the (almost) full 24 of a main series episode.
TVDB/TMDB get on this problem, please. Add support for per-episode runtimes before I go insane…
Only 2 minutes long. TVDB/TMDB need to get their acts together and support overriding runtime for specific episodes, and/or Trakt needs to start matching anime to AniDB as well.
If you're working off of MyAnimeList, this is not the episode 15 you're looking for. This is considered to be "Episode 14.5": https://myanimelist.net/anime/2589/Black_Cat__Toozakaru_Neko (Kind of a note for my own future benefit, whenever I get around to finishing this show, as much as for anyone else who happens to see it.)
Even though The TVDB claims to enforce original broadcast order, always, examples like this prove that that isn't really the case. Original broadcast order would have this listed as a special, not in the middle of the season.
Trakt lists both "seasons" together for (presumably) TVDB reasons, but I thought I'd record my average for the first broadcast run separately now that I've reached that point (since MAL considers that a "complete" show).
Average episode rating for "season 1" (a.k.a. the first cour): 6.61538462
Don't remember why it's so low in the beginning (I started this series back in 2016 with @luckynumber78 but we didn't get through it all). The latter half, which I just watched tonight, was mostly pretty good, I thought.
I watched this on PBS like 20 years ago. One of those shows that earned a warm, fuzzy place in my nostalgic memories of childhood.
Maybe I'll start occasionally watching an episode to see if I can remember any of them.
As this episode did not air the US, and is not available on any of the services where I can get the rest of season 2, I've had to skip it and rate season 2 as if it doesn't exist.
(not a review; note to my future self)
TV Guide and the We Bare Bears wiki say this was titled "The Park", not "Baby Bears Can't Jump". The plot centered around a bag swap between one of the bears and a DVD bootlegger.
Saw a fair chunk of this at the Art Car Museum in Houston just now. They closed before the end of the movie (hell, I thought it was just a typical 15-minute museum piece), but this and the director's other art car film are both on Amazon Prime Video.
How does this qualify as E/I programming???
This space reserved for when I finish the other two seasons. Season 1 review originally posted here now lives at https://trakt.tv/comments/137937 on the Season 1 entry.
Episode average: 7.9166666…
I'll round that to an 8. I really enjoyed this season, for the most part. It went in a lot of interesting directions, character-wise, even though there were parts that I thought could have been done better.
Went back to check when I started watching Homeland and noticed that I marked this episode as seen on my birthday—my default "unknown" date—because apparently when I actually watched it (in early 2015) I forgot to mark it then. That's annoying. Past me screwed up bad.
Available for free on Google Play (limited time offer, valid as of writing).

Having an 11-year-old nephew sometimes means I'm in the room for some random stuff.
"An officer will escort you both to CIC," he said. And then Quincy turns up wandering around belowdecks about to pull a halon control lever? Come on, Cpt. Chandler. True to your word or the whole crew gets screwed.
Oh, yes, and then Quincy just pops up in CIC a couple scenes later like nothing happened. Wow.
Bit of a let-down that we saw four battles in the first episode, and four battles in this one, but only short snippets of the remaining four (which still knocked out four bots that we never even really got to see in action). Why couldn't they just take three weeks for the qualifiers? For that matter, why did we only get to meet a fraction of the builders this time? Second episode is much weaker than the first, and hopefully the trend will reverse…
Note that this "special" is also listed as a movie, separately, with all the metadata you could want.
