Here's a bit of an oddball question, but does Lady Kier still sue Sega over her likeness being used for Ulala in Spice World like she did in OTL?

Nope. She got properly paid and credited for the role ITTL, thanks to the Spice Girls' involvement with the Ulala character.

Oh, and, uh....

Seriously, so glad to see this is returning soon! Seems to be some interesting stuff coming. Ghost Rider? And I’m guessing the housing crisis still happens.

I have a weak post for Huntsman since a future timeline who show him as a republican jimmy carter. So i guess i would prefer him rather than santorum .

Woo! Nice to see it coming back.

I found this article recently where the author uses a mathematical model to predict how Senna would have fared had he lived: https://f1metrics.wordpress.com/2018/08/04/historical-hypotheticals-part-i/
I thought it was pretty interesting especially since his article's Senna and ITTL Senna retire at the same time. I also have two questions related to motorsports.
1) Why didn't Senna go to Indycar after F1?
2)How is the world of motorsport doing so far? I'm mainly interested if Hamilton was able to win in 2007.

The drought is over! It's coming back!

Alright, let me see what I can infer...

Bottom Right: Some Middle Eastern conflict, probably pulling the US into it.
Middle Right: Something akin to the US subprime mortgage crisis?
Bottom middle: Battletoads vs TMNT rivalry between fandoms?
Middle left: Twisted Metal

I know this may seem a bit dated, but I wanted to ask if you ever had an idea for the GameTV logo. I actually had three ideas of how it would look, if interested

Awesome, it's back in business! I will say again the hiatus was well-deserved.

It's funny because I had a weird dream last night about how you gave us a (physical) newspaper from TTL. How you managed to avoid spoilers in it is beyond me, and it (sadly, but realistically) didn't talk about video games, but it was either from 2008, 2010, or 2016. (Dreams are vague like that.)

The biggest things were that the U.S. had an older African-American President that was a former actor (which rules out Obama), and that Gaddafi was photographed at a dance party. Perhaps a calm before the storm of TTL's equivalent of the Arab Spring?

Said newspaper had plenty of details the likes of which I wish I could remember. Like the first verse of Lee Greenwood's "God Bless The U.S.A" for some awkward reason.

Bah, forgive me for rambling on for no particular reason. It is a little better than my own reflection of me and so many people I know that are my age, slightly older, and everyone younger being non-entities ITTL, even though if I did exist there is, in my view, hardly any way I would resemble my OTL self.

And there I went again, rambling for no reason other than thoughts of various shades that I have had over hiatus. Very much looking forward to what's coming up within the week!

Senna thought NASCAR would give him more exposure and more money. And as for motorsport itself, we haven't given it too much thought. Maybe we'll touch on it to pad out this year's sports update.

I did think about it somewhat, I imagined a generic looking controller with GameTV underneath it in MTV-style lettering, but if you've got a better idea feel free to let us know!

Well then I better get back to work on that Gundam XG pitch. I've kinda hit somewhat of a rough patch with it though.

I hope John Edwards avoids his...troubles of OTL (IMO, it wasn't the fact that he cheated on his wife that really disgraced him; it was the fact that he did so while she was dying of cancer and, to top it off, he fathered a child with his mistress, got his aide (who was married, BTW; how in the hell did the guy's wife stay with him after this?) to say the aide was the father, and paid her with campaign funds) because, if he doesn't, he will lose, even if the Republican candidate is Satan...

BTW, glad you're back and that you showed Selena's picture, @RySenkari...

I think whoever the Democratic candidate is will lose anyway. 16 years of Democratic rule will do that.
