Foxtrot

Interestingly enough, I first learned of this when I read this morning's Foxtrot comic.

Oddly enough, aren't comics drawn at least 1 month in advance?

hmm..

family guy... farscape..let's see if we can get full house back on the air..

The Second Episode...

[Myrmi]

The Second episode is going to be aired on the Monday - i.e. the day after - and not in the same slot the following Sunday.

Re:First of two???

[Zocalo]

I thought this was planned to be a four episode mini-series.

I don't know whether that's how it was shot or not, but it's being aired as two double length episodes of about 90 minutes each instead of four regular episodes.

Muppets 0, Farscape 1 (slightly NSFW)

Sorry but the Muppets haven't got anything to compare with This!

Re:Get It Over With

[vsprintf]

Why doesn't John get married to that alien already so we can have the series end. They keep dragging it and dragging it. It's like a soap opera in space. It's freakin annoying.

Well, if you'd actually watched it, you'd know that John was avoiding Aeryn because Scorpi was watching them, and John didn't want Scorpi to be able to use Aeryn and the coming baby as leverage against him. All scifi series are space soap operas. Farscape was the most innovative scifi around. Unfortunately, the TV channels, and most viewers, just want yet another Star Trek with a different cast.

Sponcered by KFC

[zakezuke]

This is going to be the only time in my life that I'm ever going to buy a product based on what they sponcer. I have full plans on sunday to buy a bucket of chicken, cut it into post cards, and send a note to KFC thanking them for sponcering the mini series. This isn't my idea but never the less it's a good one.

I would reccomend that anyone else do the same and send little postcards made from KFC buckets to the following addresses:

Melanie Dyer
Associate Media Manager
Kentucky Fried Chicken
1441 Gardiner Lane
Louisville, KY 40213

John Gilbert
Chief Marketing Officer
Kentucky Fried Chicken
1441 Gardiner Lane
Louisville, KY 40213

If your a vegitarian... get potatos. It's time to get off our ez chairs and do something about this flood of reality TV and make it clear to the sponcers what we want them to support.
