How about investing it in some GOOD sci-fi?
Wonder what they think of this, can't get any real advertising money, and some puts down 3 mil to keep the best in the past 18 years on the air.
Who would have thunk it.
Shop smart! Shop S-MART!
I think that it's wonderful these folks want Star Trek to continue, and even better that they're ponying up to keep it alive, but this line is silly:
"The people airing this kind of TV have a responsibility; inspiration."
First off, Star Trek hasn't been inspiring since Kirk launched his fat butt off a trampoline. It's a soap-in-space.
Second, TV stations have only one responsibility: to make money for their owners. There is no duty-to-inspire line in the FCC licensing paperwork. Saying the cancellation "for the sake of just ratings" is wrong is right up there with saying work for the sake of just pay is wrong, or eating for the sake of just hunger is wrong. You do these things to fulfill basic motivations, and you run a TV station to fullfill a basic motivation--making money. No ratings=no money. Inspiration doesn't pay for the transmission.
Are you sure this isn’t from Scrappleface? I HATE that whinny a~s song! Sounds like something Bill Murray would sing in a gay lounge.
The show is very good nevertheless. I’m sorry to see it go, but all good things end.
How about donating to save Hubble instead? ;-)
