I've always enjoyed reading about what people imagined the future to be like, whether it would be the outlandish retro futurism of Tomorrowland, the creepy and cyberpunk corporate Futureworld, or the now but later of Futurama. It's always interesting to see what writers will come up with but it is the inspiration for those that will further technology. Though I would say that Futurama is what I envision the future to be since the one thing that Futurama got correct was that no matter how advanced we get as a people, we will still be handicapped by our emotions as humans, but that's also what makes the triumphs and melancholy of life worth living. Also, I can't wait for soylent green to be a thing 🤤

Fascinating wrestling moment in time in Highlander. The Freebirds were only very briefly in the WWF, and I don't think even made it to TV. WWF had an exclusive deal with Madison Square Garden, so that had to be their show.

Of course, Michael Hayes since then has been working there forever as a producer/booker/commentator/manager, starting as "Dok Hendrix" in the '90s.
