The Sci-Fi, Fantasy, Spy, and Superhero Genre

I watched it last night. It didn't really capture my interest. Not bad, just not to my taste I guess.   

I actually liked it. Well compare to Earth 2 and Outcast this show is better.


I voted for it to continue for two reasons..


1. I'm a Space Geek
2. I actually liked this show.

I always wished they had made a movie of 3001: The Final Odyssey. It was an interesting read.

Well three years ago SyFy channel ordered for it to be a miniseries:

I wish they did this instead of Childhood's End.

Why would they want to ignite Venus?

Now, giving it a decent and proper spin so that it might develop a stronger magnetic field to hold off the solar wind, and then seeding the atmosphere with a good dose of sulfur- and carbon-devouring life forms... that might lead to something interesting!

Well, there are some organic material on Venus that is changing the planet.

Childhood's end was just kind of depressing and I thought destroying the earth was kind of pointless.

I agree, I tried watching the whole thing, but I gave up. Not one of his best works.

Not enough gas, not enough mass. It'd just be an atmospheric burnoff.

I see Lennie James who plays Morgan on Walking Dead has a Role in Blade Runner.

I'm rewatching DS9 again, guess what it wasn't that bad of a show. It kinda made Star Trek gritty. I think the reason why I stopped watching it was due to the fact that I had Trek Fatigue.

Star Trek Voyager is running on BBC America these days

I remember when BBC America used to show British shows only..  As for Voyager, it had it moments, but I thought it was the weaker of the Star Trek franchise.

I may be in the minority, but my favorite ST franchise was Enterprise.  Trek fatigue is what killed what was a terribly underrated show.

Not to mention T'Pol in her Vulcan Cat Suit.

I liked the fact that they brought the Andorians back.

I agree, but I'm a fan of prequels anyway.

I always hated it when the math teacher said " ...and obviously, ....(skips ten or twelve steps)..this!"

Sure, I can suspend disbelief and just jump in, but sometimes the trip from point A to point B is well worth watching.

Captain.....   Wearing a looser uniform would be uhhhh....illogical

I'm with you.. Here is what I think killed Enterprise (Which I thought it was one of the better Trek shows):


1. Trek Fatigue
2. The Temporal Cold War. If time travel was the main storyline something is wrong.
3. It seemed that Berman wanted to bypass Kirk and Company and go straight to the TNG.


Season 4 was the best Trek ever..


Even though the show was cancelled, the last episode was horrible except for the ending:

I did like T'Pol, I also liked Hoshi as well..

Last nights episode of The Expanse was kind of slow but I loved the scene with Alex getting loaded listening to a Hank Williams tune.

I've always liked when they put old country music in sci fi. For some reason it always seems right.

Oh? Which Hank Williams tune was it?

I'm so lonesome I could cry.

He was parked alone in a crater waiting for a call to come pick up the crew.
