“...You sound like the kind of person that thinks shows from the past are always better than shows that are coming...”

I think the track record speaks for itself!

Very Good! I thought that would be a tough one. Next week will have to be a lot harder.

[skinkinthegrass]

c'mon...it's Star Trek. :-D

[skinkinthegrass]

now.. that's inventive! :-)

[Krankor]

Ha! I love that. I always thought that Gorn shoulda had an asthma inhaler on his belt.

And not science fiction, but a reality show that doesn't suck, the new season of "Face-Off" starts tonight.

Sure, it's Project Runway for the Make-Up crowd, but some of the stuff they made last year was pretty cool looking and these guys are going to be doing the make-up of the sci-fi movies we see in a few years.

That said, I admit, I skipped the first season because I thought it looked stupid. I watched a few minutes of a marathon on Chiller back on the 4th of July and set the DVR for the rest of it.

Actually, I might recommend DVRing it so you can fast-forward through annoying bits.
