Crap, I'd have liked to see it done straight.

I think this line's mostly filler.

Who knows, it still might be. He's done a few straight films already, some science fiction.

But probably not.

Me too. And I miss Farscape and don't like there won't be more Charmed after this season ends. It might not be the highest quality in acting at times but I like it a lot. And I miss Dead Like Me, and 7th Heaven actually. They used to show that here but stopped after the 5th season never to pick it up again. The show is so damn sweet it'll give you toothache but I liked it nonetheless

This is pretty cool. The original notes on the idea for Babylon 5.

Courtesy of a coworker I gave Samurai Jack a try ... he had the movie. I thought it was interesting, but not interesting enough to attempt the remainder of the series.

Amen to that! Loved Square 1 - I still talk about that one episode with the fibonnaci sequence on the pool tiles to this day! You can get WonderWorks movies on NetFlix.

I miss Silk Stalkings (with the original cast -- Rob Estes and Mitzi Kapture), and Las Vegas. I'm actually pretty annoyed that they left so many stories hanging without giving us answers after the writers' strike.
