Shows that had potential but didn't last long or just plain bombed..

1. Firefly -- Loved it from the start, but Fox screwed it up big time.

2. Earth 2 -- To PC for my taste.

3. Andromeda -- Good concept until Kevin Sorbo took over.

4. Space Above and Beyond -- Fox screwed it up.

“Lost” is all that’s left for me in primetime. But I have all 48 episodes of “Space:1999” on DVD.

Don't know if Kings is SF, even if they are putting repeats on the Sci-Fi Channel. It is hard to characterize.

Well Caprica is still coming soon, even if we know how it eventually turns out.

I thought that's what DS9 was all about.

Most of DS9 was about Intergalactic warfare. with really repellant bad guys. It started out dull for the first couple of years.

Lost and Castle are pretty much my ABC primetime shows. In addition to SP1999, I have the UFO megaset too.

Fringe— great show. Earth 2 sucks. Andromeda was ok but kind of dumb.

:-)

Maybe it was the end of TNG.

Who will get Deanna?

What's with Jadzia?

Will the Doctor get the girl?

What about Odo's crush?

Too bad Sarah Connoer is over. I hope the movie does well and they bring it back.

I missed “Primeval” last Friday - what’s it like? What’s it about? I did see clips from the new SG-Universe, and it looks pretty dark and dismal. Any thoughts on any of these?

That was in between battles with that outfit who made the Klingons and Cardassians out to be wussies — the Gem Hadar, IMHO.
