Masters of Science Fiction starting!!
It's been given a death sentence by ABC with only 6 episodes produced and filmed, but I think the quality of those episodes should be fantastic.

WATCH IT!!!

2. Tonight's episode was not so great
I think I would have chosen another one for the debut. It looks like there might be some good episodes coming up, though, so I'll wait and see.

I love the Hawking narration. Pretty cool touch.

4. I had the entire plot pegged in the first five minutes
And it was a bit chatty for a science-fiction series debut. Not a whole lot happens.

5. well it wasn'a shoot'em up like
The Bourne saga, that's for sure. Talk aboutcher "predictable plot". :eyes:


It's a thinking man's version of SF. Not to everyone's taste, I know.


The plot is actually a little bit different from the SS, btw. I liked the author's ending better.

6. Oh, I see. I just didn't like it because I'm not a "thinking man".
Any other insulting generalizations you would like to cast my way?

7. a little touchy, aren't you?
It wasn't an action flick. You like action flicks.

Doesn't mean you don't think, but that it seems you don't like "thinking SF" instead of action movies.

:shrug:

No need to go all Bourne on my @ss about it. :P
