Flash Forward is good as are Sanctuary and Fringe.
Presuming that your question is not about who we think could get us off the deserted planet and who we’d rather be spending time with... the lighting on the show is far too poor for me to tell if any of the men are really attractive! In all their efforts to make the fanboys happy, the show’s producers kind of forgot about the fangirls =( but they’ve been using semi-realistic science, which I really missed in Atlantis.
Still haven’t seen Flashforward, but I’m probably going to get around to it in the next few days, thanks to the swine flu that’s keeping me out of classes until Tuesday at least...
DVR set...haven't seen it since original airdate
Had a big crush on Jane Badler. Wonder where she disappeared to?
‘The Prisoner’ starts in three weeks.
Thanks
It was the 80’s! LOL!!!
” http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000826/ “ . She acts on occasion. Did nothing from 2003 to 2007, one film in 2008, working on one now.
I have just started watching syfy lately because other tv is not entertaining.
Except for Dexter.
So yes please add me to the syfy ping list for now, esp. since you have the program listings posted.
Does he have a split personality?
Why would they leave him in command?
There is a shot of all these women standing there, and I swear, all of them look like they just got out of a wind tunnel. Big, back-combed hair brushed away from the face. The first time I noticed this was a few years ago, I happened upon this movie, hadn't seen it for years and that scene, and that hair, just cracked me up.
What were we thinking?
It was the style.
My favorite looks for women was from the '70s. This site has plenty of examples of what I am talking about. (you might want to turn off your speakers as the music is annoying)
And the fact that it's apparently filmed in the dark doesn't help either. Half the time I don't know what the heck's going on.
An Ancient communication device.
They use this thing that looks like a hockey puck and it transfers conscioius across galaxies when other communications are out of range.
On the general topic.....
I hated the increasingly tongue’n’cheek tone of the Stargate franchise.
I like SGU much better, closer to the movie and the early years of the series.
I like SGU and consider the Christianity was well handled but the one silly thing about the episode was that unless they were going to go to a planet to just die later,they really needed at least 9 of the 17 to be women of childbearing age and willing to have children, though that would have put the writers in an uncomfortable place with the lesbian character who wouldn’t specify her age. Seriously, unless they have children, all they were going to do was put off the inevitable and 3-4 women (as I remember it), including one who is lesbian and may be past childbearing age, just aren’t enough to keep a viable population going, not to mention the social conflicts it would produce. That said, Lt. Tamara Johansen was a great pick but the pouty and otherwise useless Senator’s daughter in her early 20s also should have been on board. Asking the characters to “pair up” might have created some interesting drama but that could have raised uncomfortable questions for the writers, too.
