Weird Post Spacing

I sit here snacking, watching TV, and reading AGST, and
if the TV program is engaging, I forget about the group while
I watch. So tonight there was a cool Outer Limits, which is
why there are such long spaces in my replies.

This happens a lot on Saturday and Sunday nights, but if
you've noticed, Monday through Friday I usually ignore the
late night fodder on NBC and post away.

Now there's a Stargate show coming on, so we'll see.....

Are you kidding? It rocks! It has rocked for years now.

It's not entirely serious, and once you figure that out it's just good
old fashioned fun.

Liked the Russell movie, couldn't get into the series.

I'd have to do a sit-down-and-give-it-a-fair-shake marathon or
something to get interest in it now.

I'd agree over the first couple seasons. But it's grown on me recently.
I've not watched the shows for this season yet, figuring I'll TiVo up a few
while I catch up with other late spring fare. I've gotten behind enough
that I now no longer worry about cliffhangers. I've already got the next
episode in the hopper waiting when that happens. I used to wait a day to
avoid watching commercials. Now I wait a week to avoid cliffhangers.

The first few episodes I saw were a bit glum, but these last few
have been very entertaining. Last night's was about the big fellow
with the gold insignia on his forehead, and the rescue of his son and
others from a mining prison camp, or some such.
Bob help me, I can't remember the character names just 24 hours
later. Let me go peek............

Aha! Teal'c. Keep in mind I'm watching older years' shows, with
Richard Dean Anderson still on board.

The movie was fine, I find it well watchable and fun. This is an
improvement over years ago. The show has form[a|u]lized the Big Evil a
bit, it's not longer just 'an alien', it is part of 'an alien race' that
has used humans for slaves for millenia, and our fight against them.

Season 1 would not be terribly well suited to that. I am not endowed
with such memory that I could tell you which season would be a good
starting point for that, but... yeah.

Of course, you can download whole seasons right now.

Teal'c the father, Rhyac the son. I remember that episode. There are
better ones. The Replicators were fairly nice. The first time we see an
Asgard ship descending through an atmosphere (dark clouds gathering,
thunder roars, etc, Jack O'Neil summed it up with "Oh yeah...")

I guess I'm a bit of a fanboy, though I have no delusions about the
intellectual quality of the show.

Older shows... I'm still voting for a rerun of McGyver, The A-Team and
Knight Rider in one block on an easily accessible evening.

The A-Team was, I think, much more popular over here then over in
Leftpondia. In fact, I think we've pretty much topped most nations of
the world. It's good, clean fun, it has just one plotline which was used
for every single episode, and I enjoyed the hell out of it. I would
probably still do so, today.

And Rheostat's the volume control.

I remember Teal'c's name as the guy who's name sounds like baby powder.

I think my favorite episode is the one where the guy makes a movie based on
SG1's adventures. It has that "Trouble with Tribbles" comedy flavor.

Would that be the episode where a dorky alien with amnesia gets the idea
for a Power Rangers like show called "Wormhole X-Treme!" based on his
deleted memories of working with SG-1?

Or is that the episode where a documentary maker tries to do interviews
with the personnel at the SGC? That had some hilarious stuff in it.

More and more lately I find that I can tolerate mindless
shoot-em-up, blow-it-up, car chase fun much more than
I used to.
I've always loved sci-fi, aliens, space, spaceships, etc.,
but stuff like the A-Team, that I never, ever watched, might
actually get me as an audience these days.

Sadly, I think it's because I'm just too effing tired to do
anything else. Gah.

I just saw that 2-part episode. It was a bit on the gloomy side,
except for RDA's character in spots. The first part was especially
glum, when the death happens.
I suppose I miss all the "inside joke" stuff, since I'm still sorting
out characters and such. A newbie!

A duet between KITT and KARR (Knight Automated Roving Robot), of course.

And don't mess with the Hasselhoff, y'know? He gets great reviews:

Yes, the ending was very gloomy. That, of course, was the point of the
episode, but the methods of dealing with the interviewer in the first
episode had me in stitches.

Teal'c was fantastic.

And on that note, I'd just like to say that the person or persons
responsible for killing SAAB (Space: Above and Beyond) deserves to have
his nuts stuffed up his notrils and his face caved in with a mallet.

Just thought I'd mention it.

You say that as if it's a bad thing. The watching The A-Team thing.
Don't be critical and it's entertaining. Be critical and it's a waste of
time. Switching off criticism for shows that should do without is
essential.

Agreed, agreed, agreed! Excellent show that died way to early a death.
Much like Firefly was cancelled way to early as well.

I got tickled when, at the end of the second part, RDA had to
finally sit down and give up an interview.

Teal'c is the coolest- he's a bit like the uber-cool Mr. Spock
in the original Star Trek series. Doesn't get humor at all, that I
have seen.

That's the way I feel about a lot of shows! But since we're going
on about sci-fi mostly, the one I *really* miss is Second Generation.
Whoopie Goldberg as an empathetic bartender was pure genius.
I also dug the empath a whole lot- the beautiful woman whose name
just won't pop into my head.

And which show had that little crook Quark? He just delighted me,
and I could have watched his antics forever.

I'm learning! I feel less and less guilt all the time.......

The Next Generation. Deanna Troi was the empath.

Deep Space Nine.

Meh, I still miss the old days of Star Trek. Even Lost in Space was good
for its time. :^)
