Kidnapped by a bunch of Wesen orphans to be their new mother after the previous one "Wendy" died during escape. If it sounds a bit like Peter Pan, well that's Grimm for you. Bree Turner is chloroformed and has her hands tied in front with heavy rope. Transported by vehicle then kept tied in their tents. She "woges" to her "fuchsbau" form to gnaw through the rope and escape. |

| Saturday November 14 06:13:22 2015 Super Force / B.A.D. Cats |
| OK guys...this was my other idea, and it worked with the first one I was trying for. Please inundate them for the second. I have written this company several times (under various email addresses) to release "Super Force" on DVD. The show has a great scene of Ginger Lynn chloroformed, carried into a car unconscious, and then strapped to a table for mind control. The company is Canadian, so the limitations on what they can or can't release vis a vis American distribution is much less restricted. As you can see, they finally said yes: http://www.tvshowsondvd.com/news/Super-Force-DVDs-Planned/21722 So please: I encourage you all to ask for B.A.D. Cats. If you have other shows you want released, I say let's hold off on them for now. It will dilute our effort. If we can all galvanize and ask for B.A.D. Cats, and it works, then we can move on to the next show. What say you all? Here's their contact info. I addressed mine to customer service: http://www.visualentertainment.tv/pages/contact-us |

That means during at least one episode of the new series, Scully is going to drive past a hardware store with duct-tape on sale. |

Nope. You'd get 0.0297 (aka 2.97%) by dividing 6 (the number of episodes with scenes) by 202 (the total number of episodes), but that's not how probability works. This is a basic combinatorics problem that may be getting a bit beyond our scope, but if the Moderator will indulge me... Probability of *any given episode* having a scene = 6/202 = 0.0297 (this is the figure above) Probability of any given episode *not* having a scene = 1-(6/202) = 0.9703 Probability of *all nine new episodes* not having a scene (assuming that each is independent of the other) = (1-(6/202))^9 = 0.7623 Probability of *at least one new episode* having a scene = 1-((1-(6/202))^9) = 0.2377 = 23.77% If this still doesn't seem intuitive, consider this simpler version of the same question: if the probability of a coin coming up Heads is 1/2, what is the probability of at least one Heads in three tosses? Clearly it's not merely 50%, which is what the 2.97% calculation above would imply. It's actually 1-((1-(1/2))^3) = 0.875 = 87.5%. You can verify this by considering the equally likely possibilities: TTT, TTH, THT, THH, HTT, HTH, HHT, and HHH. 7 out of 8 of these fit our criteria, so 7/8 = 87.5% it is. (You can also calculate the probability of two scenes, three scenes, etc. but that gets a bit more complicated and the Mod would *definitely* kill me) |
