And lets not kid ourselves that cutting science and education funding is the wet-dream of the religious extremists in the United States.

OK, here's the *real* breakdown of the 3 shows. Everyone else has been pretty much wrong! ;P

• • SG1: Groundbreaking for TV Sci-Fi. Season 1-4 great, 5-7, meh. 8-10, decent.
  • SGA: Fun Sci-Fi in an ST-TOS vein. Conscious of the fact and used it. Last season suffered from "We know we're cancelled" syndrome.
  • SGU: I don't watch soap operas.

Now that we all know the only correct opinions, we can close the thread. :))

Maybe I'll actually play it.....NOT!

Now I get to pay $1.29 to rent "Honey Pie"...until my HD crashes, then I get to do it again! Hooray For Apple(& Apple)!

"Separate But Equal" anyone?

The proper term for what's going on with Assange is ratfucking.

I have one, and it works fine. Great actually, as I just wrote this reply (by hand, not keyboard) in Windows 7, from a moving car. Get with the program!

According to RTD, the mysterious woman was left deliberately mysterious to tickle the fancy of fans, a move I heartily approve of. Personally, I thought she was Romana, in a later regeneration (which would make sense since Romana would likely have still been the President of the High council when Rassilon took over). But, RTD did say that in his mind, the character was The Doctor's mother.

Thoroughly agreed, with this caveat: In regards to the 8th Doctor aka Paul McGann, I used to feel the same, until i got a chance to hear the "radio dramas" in which he starred. Changed my opinion of him completely, Now I love his portrayal, although I can see how someone who has only seen that terrible Fox movie would think otherwise.

Now if we can also dump that failure of a "show-runner" Moffat, I can go back to giving Doctor Who a chance again. This first Moffat/Smith season turned me, a life-long Whovian, off to the show completely. A massive turnaround from waiting, with baited-breath for the first download of each week's episode to appear on the net. I found the whole season to be a mis-paced, un-who-like, muddled and emotionless mess.

and one much easier to answer would be "If the sky weren't blue, would people still eat hot-dogs?"

From TFA: "...So one thing you can do is say, I’m going to assume the next pixel is like this one. Don’t talk to me, don’t tell me anything about the image, until you get something different..."
Brilliant! He's reinvented Run-Length Encoding!
