Because Fox paid for the rights to air the show.

Studios and networks are separate businesses, even if they have the same parent companies.  A studio division usually sells its shows to its sister network, but doesn't have to.

Another example: ABC Studios produces Criminal Minds, but it airs on CBS.

Elysium

We could give everyone free healthcare by changing one line of computer code. So why don't we?

The Silence of the Lambs

Watch this young FBI agent learn the hard way that people don't always fill out those change-of-address cards.

That's another huge aspect to this issue - evolution isn't just some stand-alone idea separate from the rest of science.  It's the catch-all name for a process that can be observed in everything from astronomy to geology.

Again, it's the perception among the uneducated that "evolution" means just "the theory that man came from monkeys" which makes it seem like a single claim that can be easily dismissed.

I went to a lecture by Eugenie Scott years ago, and the quote that's stuck with me ever since was "If evolution isn't true, then nothing is true."

In other words, if you want to claim "evolution isn't real", you might as well also say "Emails get sent via angels whispering to each other".  You can't remove "evolution" from "science" without the entire thing collapsing.

Well - still not enough to get me to watch The Master a second time.

But I think today is a good day to rewatch State and Main.  And Boogie Nights.  And perhaps even try MI:3.

I would have preferred Helen Mirren.  For either role.

Even within the world that Elysium creates, it makes perfect sense for the Elysians (?) not to allow Earth's population to come LIVE on Elysium, because clearly Elysium can only support a fraction of that number. So it would be understandable for the Elysians to keep their borders closed to immigration, if we want to deal with a real-world issue in a sci-fi context.

But - the movie focuses specifically on the magic health machines that apparently do not exist on Earth at all, but are stockpiled in huge surplus on Elysium.   

Not only would it cost the Elysians nothing to let Earth have access to that technology, it doesn't even make sense for them to deny it.  Elysium's troubles in the movie are the direct result of the Elysians pointlessly hoarding something free and unlimited.   That's not just being dicks for no reason, that's the dumbest foreign policy in the history of everything.

Again, my fellow doctors - being sad is not depression.  People can be sad and still function.    It's the difference between your leg hurting and your leg being broken.

If Bullock's character can get herself together enough to do whatever her job is, she can still be sad on her time off without being clinically "depressed".   So she's sad a lot.  Millions of us are, but we can still do our laundry and fly shuttles and stuff.   The notion that people can't have issues and be astronauts is pretty much negated by Diaper Lady.

So let's stop being lazy and using "depression" as a catch-all here, especially because semantically we sometimes do use "depressed" to also mean "kinda sad at the moment" in addition to the clinical definition.

Instead, let's go all Mamet-like and talk in specifics, rather than hypothetical medical diagnoses.   What is her specific problem?    We'll skip all the speculation and just focus on what the movie shows us and what it tells us.

What she hasn't done specifically is let go of the death of her daughter and move on with her emotional life.   She clearly still can be a doctor and an astronaut well enough in her public life, because she is one.   But this isn't a movie about her overcoming hardship to become an astronaut.

How this problem specifically affects her is:  She's not a lot of fun.  She's joyless.  She's functional, but that's all.    As specifically shown by watching her grimly poke at her little experiment while her fellow astronauts zip around pointing out that they're in space and it's freaking amazing, just look at the goddam Earth for fuck's sake!   

Then later, she specifically tells us that when she's not doing her job, she has nothing.  No hobbies, not even a musical preference.  She just drives.  Pretty easy symbolism there:  Her life is going nowhere.

So later in her darkest hour she decides to just wait to die because she lost her daughter so what the fuck, right?   

Then - how she changes specifically by the end of the movie is - instead of surrendering, she says goodbye to her daughter (literally), and decides to try to live after all.  Not just in terms of survival, but to embrace life again.  She's not just ready to take the ride to the surface, she's ready to appreciate the crazy awesomeness of that experience. Even if it kills her.   It's the first time in the entire movie that she's genuinely happy - just before she's probably about to die a fiery spectacular death.

That's the character arc, and although there are a few clunky moments along the way it's perfectly solid.  No need to go inventing a phantom medical history to argue against.
