A spoiler warning would have been nice. I haven't read it yet!

It’s only been out for 2,800 years, how much more time do you need?

Technically it is season two, Illiad is the first season.

Then there's The Aeneid, playing like "Joanie Loves Chachi" to The Iliad's "Happy Days".

EDIT: actually, now that I think about it, more like "Mork & Mindy" than "Joanie Loves Chachi".

This meme awoke a long buried memory of a show I used to watch all the time as a kid - The Odyssey, and made me realise I don't think I ever saw how it ended!

Might have to see if I can download it somewhere..

[–] [email protected] 5 points 10 months ago (1 children)

If I remember correctly, the odyssey lasted as long as the Trojan war.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

Yep about ten years each
