was good, but 6 episodes why not just make it an animated movie.

10 minutes in and all I can think is how much funnier this would be if they had just recast every role with an actor from “Succession”

Instant hit

Now I’m excited to watch both! Added Farscape to my plan to watch list.

Hey if you get a chance, check out Shannen Dougherty’s Podcast. She brings on Kevin Smith and they explain everything behind Mallrats, talk about the sequel and read some of the script!

I’d recommend Farscape, it shared a lot of the same elements as SG:A in terms of creativity, tone, space opera tropes, etc.. In other words, fun with occasional overacting that fit with the overall show, and even more creativity (IMO) than Andromeda. And since you must have watched SG-1, even a “big honkin’ space gun” type weapon that would even make the Goa’uld poop themselves (or their hosts ;) ).

As long as she looks up once in a while… Helen of Troy may have had the face that launched 1000 triremes, but Amanda’s got the eyes that launched 1000 Prometheus-class starships. Which I only mentioned so I could say that “Sir, we can’t name the ship Enterprise” was quite possibly the best piece of SF dialogue ever put into a script (though Futurama’s got a couple really good ones too).

Oh, man, Lexx was a head trip until I could binge-watch the movies and first season. So much crazy stuff going on and so few real-life touchstones until (hmmm, I sense a trend here) NBC got ahold of it and gave it a $10 budget for the last season. Still, I agree completely that it was very underrated - sometimes I get the feeling German TV doesn’t always translate to US TV, but maybe Netflix’s push to bring shows like Dark to Netflix USA will make it easier. :)

You can join the boys in our family then. I believe they’d watch Amanda clean her nails.

Andromeda is good, but Farscape is very superior. Not once did it search for itself or the arc. It always knew what it was & where it was going with laser-sharp writing & long term serialization. Other than Lexa Doig who portrayed Andromeda ship’s AI was married to SG-1’s Michael Shanks, the only way the two shows were similar was in that the primary vessels were alive or had living AI. Farscape was more similar to The Lexx in that regard - another underrated space opera.

Andromeda’s strength was in the entire ensemble cast, who were more capable than the central star. The show also introduced quantum mechanics in a very mainstream way to provide story elements. Until that time, that area of science was pretty obscure to the laity.

I missed Sanctuary, but I could watch Amanda Tapping on permanent loop and wouldn’t get bored. ;) I’m going to have to ad that to my list!

Sanctuary is waaay cool. It started as a web series, so it’s cool to catch that as well as the episodes made for Sci-Fi before nbc hijacked the network & killed off all the good shows - like SG-1, Farscape, Sanctuary, SG-A, etc.

YES! Farscape is amazing! Did everyone catch “Sanctuary”?? Amanda Tapping was just as good in it, if not better, than she was in the SGU’s. https://www.primewire.tf/tv/2113-sanctuary

Anybody recommend this show? I’m about to finish SG Atlantis and need a replacement.

It started out well but that last season, where the “already pushing the Sorbo saturation limit” became “Sorbo overload” really kinda messed things up for me, as did the “Hercules in Space” plot/narrative.
The show was at its best when it was focused on restoring the Commonwealth and coping with the Magog threat…kinda like ST: Discovery last season, restoring the Federation and dealing with the alien species accidentally destroying planets after The Burn.

But by the Great Ones (Roddenberry and JMS), I can’t watch anything with Sorbo in it anymore after suffering through his Christo-rightwing fanaticism on Twitter for so many, many years. Shame too, he was never a very good actor, but he was perfect for Sam Raimi’s Hercules.

The only thing I could find was what I posted. Think it’s time for a writing campaign! Something is a miss at CBS, they canceled NCIS: Hawaii (which I really couldn’t get into). Yet all of these dramas are somewhat alike, just in different locations, that’s the NCIS spinoffs I’m talking about.

It is a good show, in spite of Sorbo rather than because of him. After Trek TOS, The Great Bird had material that he tried to turn into series, but only got as far as a film & a pilot. Those were Genesis II & Planet Earth. They didn’t go where he hoped they would go, but after he died his wife Majel Barrett took that material about Dylan Hunt & divided it. One became Earth Final Conflict & the other Andromeda.

Both shows shift gears a lot before they find themselves, so some seasons may be preferred over others since some of the changes in tone, cast & character design are very radical. Each show wasn’t short on its own ambition.

Whaaaaaaat??? Whyyyyyy?

This looks hilarious.

This looks hilarious.

This is one movie I highly recommend. For the past 15 year or so I have been into watching German TV shows and movies, this was one of the movies that sucked me in and got me watching more….

I feel so sorry for Carl. IDK wth he sees in Lindsay. She’s just so mean and controlling where he’s concerned and I think she wants to get married just for the sake of getting married, bc she’s getting older and she’s afraid to be alone. Run Carl, RUN!

Taped show??

I can totally believe that. Thank you for jumping in. I just finished watching. Just watching the curators alone showed the level of ‘we will finish when we finish’. I am sorry if this was part of your story. I so enjoy the benefits of visiting exhibitions around the world and am acutely aware of how much effort goes into creating these amazing art pieces… with little or ‘sometimes’ no reward. Please be aware that there are many of us out there that adore the work.

Forgot all about this movie, props!!!

Taped show??

great summary!

For those who really dig Roddenberry, then this non-science fiction drive-in flick was big. Has stars like Angie Dickinson & Kojak Telly Savalas, but also for anyone who grew up with 1970s superheroes on Saturday morning, there was Captain Marvel-Shazam followed by Isis, played by JoAnna Cameron. She’s also in this. Includes James Doohan (Scotty), Disney’s Keenan Wynn, Planet Of The Apes Roddy McDowall. Also has drive-in divas like Joy Bang, Barbara Leigh, June Fairchild & Gretchen Burrell.

Best Godzilla in a long time

I love Sadie Soverall <3 the best!

I have never seen a horror movie starring Jim Henson’s puppets, but as I watched this movie that is all I could think about. Nic Cage’s role was mediocre as the movie focused on the two boys which I thought was discouraging. And disappointingly, there was no back story to fill in the gaps and the movie ended without any closure. Overall, I didn’t care for the storyline, the characters, or the monsters. For me, this movie is just not worth adding to my movie lists.

After Roddenberry’s Genesis ii, John Saxon starred in this sci-fi story that has that doomy 70s vibe found in films like this. Growing up, we remember him from The Six Million Dollar Man, but he was in everything including Nightmare On Elm Street, Queen Of Blood, & The Bees.

That was one of my five theories

I thought it was a great show when it came out. I liked Sorbo in Hercules and I thought this was a good fit for him…

A very meaningful movie, thanks for reminding me. It’s one of my top 10 in the emotional category.
While KS has been exiled he has still been a wonderful actor.
The life of David Gale is another of my favorites.
Kpax etc…

If it’s the movie I remember it was a very good movie, The end of it though, heartbreaking. I don’t know if I can see it again.

What they don’t tell you about is the hundreds of freelancers and artists brought together to make the opening (and Met Gala in general) possible. Lots and Lots of wage theft, abuse, retaliation etc. from experience, not speculation.

two thumbs up

Yawn-fest.

Dang it! I liked this CSI! CBS Has Axed CSI: Vegas the move is likely to make room for CBS’ new slate of shows that are expected for the 2024-2025 season. With the third season of the popular procedural well underway, CBS made the shocking move of canceling CSI: Vegas before its fourth season.
