This is something I've been totally unable to find any information about through search engines. In the early/mid '90s, I remember seeing what I think was a show or miniseries about a dystopian future where water was in extremely short supply, and used as a means of control over the populace. The...

I saw this on UK TV sometime (I think) in the late 1980s, it was like an outer limits type show ... But not actually Outer Limits. There was a chubby man who got another to help him in an old house - he was a gourmet who'd eaten most things, I think he'd even tried cannibalism. One thing he reall...

I'm trying to find a story I read in Australia, probably in the late 2000s or the early 2010s. I think it was a short story, not a full novel, and it might have been in a magazine such as Cosmos.

I found this necklace online which says it's from the Witcher franchise. Could someone verify where exactly was this logo portrayed in the Witcher games?

This is driving me mad, so I'm desperately hoping this works I read the book maybe 5 years ago? The protagonist is a standard villager who provides goods/services to the village. There's no magic school or king or anything. It's a small village with a mayor. In the village where the protagonist l...

In the final episode of the kenobi television series we see However, if I remember correctly in the Clone Wars television series it was established that Did I miss something in-between these events?

I believe the movie might have been black and white. So might have been from the 50s. It was in English and pretty sure it was made in USA. Some alien entity/force/device/figure simultaneously visits 6-7 people scattered around the world, and gives them a small device. Similar to a ladies make up...

The overall story is more about the man who is a reporter or an agent from US and his interaction with a foreign society and changes. Unclear whether an off-world component, but I think it was an introduction to a character that had several other stories and or novellas. May have been same char...

Some years ago, I read on rec.arts.sf.written about a story (I think by Lafferty or Davidson) about a man who could access alternate universes - he can, for example, pick up a quarter from the return slot in a phone booth, then grab another quarter from a nearly identical universe, and another an...

I read this story in OMNI when I was a kid sometime in the 80's. The generation ship has no living crew, but will create one person from DNA when it gets close to a candidate planet to determine if it's right for settling. If it is not good, the person has to live out his life and die on the way ...

There was this kids show aired in the 2000s, the plot is about characters battling each other in 1v1s, choosing creatures (hybrid animals, armoured)to fight in randomly chosen arenas. The arenas are chosen by one side and characters are their own or randomly chosen? The fights were either simulat...

Two subjects from different tyranid fleets/hives/minds encounter each other with no interfering forces. What happens?

I'd like some help identifying a short story. Here's what I remember of the plot: The protagonist is a chef, working at a very out-of-the-way establishment (I think it was maybe a kind of mountain lodge that she also owned). She is very highly trained, and used to work at very fancy restaurants, ...
