For Pete's sake, is nothing sacred?

We can rebuild him. We have the technology.

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.

Those PBS kids shows of that era were fun - oh, yeah: Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego. I don't know how good the current batch is. It may be fun to check it out.

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

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

But probably not.

I also doubt that it will be played for anything other than laughs.

Come on, admit it. You are all picturing him doing the slo-mo run. You see it in your mind's eye. The tension of the muscles, the bizarre facial contortions.

I already don't want to see it.

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
