It's very limiting to try, fleeb

I saw terra nova yesterday.
It was no battle star galactica.

That's unfortunate...was it at least engaging?

That Differential video begs to be a MST3k short.

Battlestar Garlic-tica.

I've always thought of it by that name. Even when I was a kid.

sigh

I miss MST3K :(

One of these days I'm going to have to invite a bunch of people over and have a RiffTrax party. Anyone know whether those are any good?

I didn't get to watch a lot of Letterman when I was younger, but:

(Mostly, this is to explain why I wrote what I wrote in the Lobby)

heh... the a-team movie...

they're showing a flight over the cologne central station with the cathedral, and naming it frankfurt...

next big mistake: frankfurt looks pretty american except for the german cars.

finaly there is an american bus.

I refuse to watch reality television until they finally bring out a show that has not only the Kardashians but also the Ferengi and the Romulans and the Klingons and a few Vulcans to round things out.

(Ignore the other 64,500 google results. I invented that joke myself.)

Funny thing is, I don't follow pop culture, so the first I heard of the Kardashians was when two girls on another show (the Middle) were discussing their makeup and one said to the other "You look like a Kardashian" and I was thinking "that's really not much of a compliment. They're all veiny and ick!"

yeah I know, I couldn't afford them either.

So I see that someone at ABC read/saw "Wicked" and thought that *they* could do the "classic fairy tale told from a different perspective" thing too.

Fail. It doesn't even come close. Try again.

And to think that ABC is owned by Disney.

(srsly ... the characters are one-dimensional and predictable, the storytelling is Obland and uninteresting, the sets and costumes are cliche ... someone tried to pull a "mee tooo" and failed miserably here.)

As one actually watching the "Wicked"-like show - you haven't watched a full episode - a snippet is not enough to judge but that won't stop you.

It actually has a good underlying plot bringing all the story book characters - very twisted!

[#] Tue Jan 17 2012 05:53:20 AM EST from triLcat @ Uncensored

You're talking about "Once Upon a Time?"

[#] Tue Jan 17 2012 07:30:52 AM EST from IGnatius T Foobar @ Uncensored

yeah ... they think they're doing some clever writing there but the results are predictably bland. Maybe if they added a bunch of gratuitous explosions it would be watchable.

Helicopters falling off of buildings!!!!!

Oh wait. We've had this discussion before.

[#] Tue Jan 17 2012 12:05:22 PM EST from IGnatius T Foobar @ Uncensored

See that? Aahz should be hired as a writer; that would make the show more interesting.

An underlying plot bringing together the storybook characters has also been done before. The folks who wrote "Into the Woods" did it well. The kings of blah at ABC tried it and were predictably bland.
