Welcome to General Memes

Memes for the masses, chuckles for the chosen.

Rule 1: Be Civil, Not CruelWe’re here for laughs, not fights.

  • No harassment, dogpiling, or brigading
  • No bigotry (transphobia, racism, sexism, etc.)
  • Keep it light — argue in the comments, not with insults

Rule 2: No Forbidden FormatsNot every image deserves immortality on the memmlefield. That means:

  • No spam or scams
  • No porn or sexually explicit content
  • No illegal content (seriously, don’t ruin the fun)
  • NSFW memes must be properly tagged

If you see a post that breaks the rules, report it so the mods can take care of it.

Otherwise consider this your call to duty. Get posting or laughing. Up to you

I just started Stargate SG-1 not too long ago. I wouldn't call it perfect, but it does hold up decently and is pretty entertaining. 10 seasons too.

[–] MisterCurtis@lemmy.world 21 points 3 days ago (2 children)

It's amazing how every planet in Stargate looks like the Pacific Northwest. The Ancients must have really liked evergreens.

[–] darkdemize@sh.itjust.works 14 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Also pretty convenient that most of the aliens are quite human-like, and most of them seem to speak English pretty well.

[–] SapphironZA@sh.itjust.works 7 points 2 days ago

Its the James T Kirk paradox. Every alien species must be fuckable.

[–] Zorque@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

They actually comment about this in a couple episodes.

[–] mikenurre@lemmy.world 7 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Plus 5 seasons of Atlantis and two SGU

[–] Zorque@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago

Oh man, an extra five seasons to enjoy :D

Oh man I haven't thought about SG-1 in years. It has more explosions per episode than it does deep plots but it's a great ride.

[–] perviouslyiner@lemmy.world 17 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Still haven't watched Firefly...

[–] Godort@lemmy.ca 17 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

It's good, but I'm not sure if it holds up if you aren't already nostalgic for it.

It has so much of that Joss Whedon wry sarcastic dialogue that has become the replacement for comedy in modern movies

[–] its_kim_love@lemmy.blahaj.zone 12 points 3 days ago

Yeah I was ride or die for Firefly back in the day and it still does things that were impressive at the time, but my love for Whedon has definitely lost some of its shine. Especially his "strong" women characters that feel like barely the baseline today. It probably helped make that possible, but it doesn't seem to stand out nearly as much as it did in the 00s.

these Star Trek series:

Star Trek: The next generation

ST: Deep Space Nine

ST: Strange New Worlds

ST: Picard

Non star trek:

Rome (the old HBO show)

Mr. Robot

Breaking Bad

Better Call Saul

Haunting of Hill House

[–] sicarius@lemmy.world 12 points 3 days ago

I highly recommend Mr. Robot and Dark if you haven't seen them. Although Dark has only three seasons.

[–] hperrin@lemmy.ca 8 points 3 days ago

You become AI slop?

[–] giacomo@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 3 days ago

what about when its 3 seasons and ends before the writers knew

[–] jeff@programming.dev 6 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

A few more:

  • Malcom in the Middle
  • Psych
[–] MidsizedSedan@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

Roommates was a webseries on YouTube.

It may not be 8 seasons long, but its nice and short enough to binge all in one night.

[–] LouNeko@lemmy.world 7 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Dexter, House, Scrubs. Just to name a few.

[–] giacomo@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 3 days ago

apparently Dexter just waits a decade before resurfacing.

still waiting on House though.

[–] Hundun@beehaw.org 3 points 2 days ago

That's how I binged Supernatural two years ago, what a show!

[–] slazer2au@lemmy.world 6 points 3 days ago

And you play the game of how many seasons can I watch before I need to be awake.

[–] Blue_Morpho@lemmy.world 5 points 3 days ago

Doctor Who. Or as I like to refer to it: Inspector Spacetime.

[–] Kwakigra@beehaw.org 3 points 2 days ago

The Sopranos

[–] diffaldo@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

If you like horror-drama, "From" series is good to binge watch.
