Wouldn't it be great if the sorbo account is a parody account and he's just a harmless luddite in real life, surprised and frustrated to eventually find out someone is using his likeness to say the absolutely dumbest things anyone can say?

[–] chaogomu@kbin.social 17 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Sadly, he's exactly like what his account paints him as, an out of touch jackass who thinks he's the best thing to ever happen to low budget TV.

His ego fucked over Andromeda. That show could have been so much more, if they had just cast someone else.

Part of the problem is he's had like 47 strokes. He's literally brain damaged.

[–] chaogomu@kbin.social 11 points 1 year ago

Lucy Lawless has said that he was just as bad before the strokes. And that, sadly, he's made a full recovery.

I probably shouldn't be posting this here, because some of you are likely to rub your dicks off in excitement, but this is a relevant article:

It’s not just fundamentalism. Maybe it makes you look for answers within. Digging up corpses.

Holy scrambled cannoli! 47?! Drugs?

[–] db2@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I made the number up, but it was a lot. If I recall it was/is something congenital.

My favorite numbers:
89% of all Bathroom Accidents occur outside of a bathroom

73% of all Statistics are made up

It was three, and it was due to an aneurysm in his shoulder.

[–] Maeve@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Savage. I’m not even happy lol.

I liked early Andromeda and loved season 1 of Earth: Final Conflict. Can't blame Sorbo for EFC going down the shitter after one season, but Rodenberry properties other than Star Trek just can't seem to get any footing.

[–] chaogomu@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

EFC was an interesting one.

Here's Gene Roddenberry's full pitch for EFC, or Battleground Earth as the pitch calls it.

He died before writing anything more for it. He does get writing credit for the pilot, but that's just a Hollywood feel good thing.

[–] Duamerthrax@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

I would assume that Lucy Lawless would know. She's gotten into arguments with Sorbo over twitter.

[–] mateomaui@reddthat.com -1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

But that would make TheLiamNissan’s dunks on him less amusing.

[–] Varyk@sh.itjust.works 0 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Totally agree, but it's easy target practice vs an ideal world where the righteous Hercules who teamed up with xena isn't a total asshole, and I more enjoy the wistful imagined nostalgia of the latter and can shoulder the cognitive dissonance.

[–] mateomaui@reddthat.com 0 points 1 year ago

Ah, yes, on that I do agree.
