Info: Digital Release? Hasbro releasing "digital release commemorative collection" in May
Time

I would be disturbed if it was a digital-only release, especially if it's a new transfer, for two reasons.

1. If it can be downloaded at all, it would most likely have drm on it.

2. Regardless if it has drm or not, it would most likely be highly compressed, as I doubt the general public cares much about video quality and are more concerned with what they might view as a "waste of space", especially if the download is in HD or 4k.

At least if it were the old Lowry transfer there would be no point in downloading them, since you can get it through superior sources ('04 HDTV rips and '11 Blu-ray)

It's Tuvok, not Tuvac, and you remember correctly. The actor who played Tuvok was in Generations as an unnamed human (Which is odd considering the Voyager episode "Flashback", which aired two years after Generations was in theaters, showed that Tuvok was in Starfleet at that point of history.), a human mercenary named Devor in the TNG episode "Starship Mine" and a klingon named T'Kar in the DS9 episode "Invasive Procedures". The Mirror Universe counterpart of Tuvok also appears in DS9.

So I just ate X for the first time.

I've been watching Fourth Doctor serials recently, and one of the most famous parts of Tom Bakers incarnation is his love for jelly babies. Being American I never had any, until today...

...and no offense (especially to the British on this forum), but they taste weird. Maybe it's because I'm American, maybe it's because I have sensitive taste buds, but they just...well...I'm not going to repeat myself. :P

They are hard to chew on the outside, yet the inside is really gooey, and not in a good way. The flavors are more intense (and more fruity) than gummy bears or jelly beans. The black one tasted horrible. I'm sorry if I am not describing myself well, but explaining things has never been one of my strong points.

I honestly don't know what to make of these "treats", but if the Doctor asked me if I wanted one, I would probably decline his offer.

For the record, the ones I bought were Bassett's.

Have you guys tried a new food recently? It could be anything, from meat to vegetables, candy to absolute garbage, and anything and everything in between or outside it.
