Random Thought for March 14th
So I'm watching Jericho on Sci Fi tonight (by the way, Jericho is on till midnight Eastern on Sci Fi tonight) and I realized another way in which Jericho has demonstrated its superiority.
There is no Magickal Healing Blud in Jericho. When you're dead, you're dead. So when someone I care about gets killed, I actually feel sorrow, as opposed to ( Read more... )
My family looks like a bunch of illiterate hicks, not like sci fi fans, but they are. It is disturbing how much Sci Fi Channel gets watched in my parents' house. And every time I visit, I complain about (a) the fact that half the stuff that gets shown on Sci Fi is not science fiction and (b) how rotten it is. And my dad agrees with me...and then makes me watch it anyway. At least even he agreed that "Mansquito" was too horrible to watch.
If it's been leaked to the Hollywood Reporter, there's probably a good chance that it's accurate. Sigh. Oh well. If it does turn out that way, at least they got to come back with 7 excellent episodes. I know I am harping on the Heroes-Jericho comparisons with annoying frequency, but at the episode 5 mark in Heroes' second season, I was so bored that I actually got online halfway through the episode in search of something interesting to do. Episode 5 of Jericho? Screaming so loudly and frequently that the cat left the room rather than endure it. Maybe...maybe Robert Hawkins is D.L.'s cousin, and he could come to live with Micah and Monica? After all, he would have gone to retrieve Micah's comic and no one would have come out of that house alive.
