duey Posted May 26, 2005 Author Posted May 26, 2005 I saw a mistake in this episode. When Walt was playing his GAMEBOY, I recognized the game. It was Cabelas Big Game Hunter 2005, but the music for the game was Pac Man. I was disappointed. Oh well, great show. 345442[/snapback] Damn it! Damn it all to hell! I am crushed beyond words! Good catch, actually.
duey Posted May 26, 2005 Author Posted May 26, 2005 I saw it. It was fluff. There was a reason it was cut. It was a scene with Clarie and Charlie and she revealed why she never named the baby...it was because she knew the "others" would come back for it. It was maybe 2 min long. 345437[/snapback] Obviously not critical, or even complementary, to the storyline. Fluff indeed.
duey Posted May 26, 2005 Author Posted May 26, 2005 Hey, some good news (IMHO) regarding next season. It was announced last week that the show would be starting at 9 pm next season. For me, with kids, that works out so much better.

FanfromAlbany Posted May 26, 2005 Posted May 26, 2005 I see that ABC is remaking the Night Stalker. I have mixed feelings about it. The old one is great because its so campy. I'm don't that that would play now and if they make it too serious it may come off as an X-Files ripoff. All that said, I will be looking forward to the pilot.
Ramius Posted May 26, 2005 Posted May 26, 2005 Yeah, and I think the new ABC show INVASION (aliens) will be on at 8:00. 345464[/snapback] hopefully they keep it on wednesdays and not try and do something stupid like pitting it up against CSI on thursdays...

FanfromAlbany Posted May 26, 2005 Posted May 26, 2005 Darrin McGavin was a gum shoe reporter who worked for rag paper in Chicago. He would always get mixed up in cases where there was some supernatural event or cause. Vampires, Golums, homicidal robots, you name it, he found it and fought it. It's great fun. It came out in the late seventies and there was nothing like it on TV (I think it came out after the original Salem's Lot with David Soul). It had moments where it was (to a 9 year old anyway) kinda' frightening. Of course now it seems kinda silly. They still show it on TRIO network as part of the "Brillant but Cancelled" series.

stevewin Posted May 26, 2005 Posted May 26, 2005 Night Stalker was classic. I remember watching it late Friday nights when I was a kid Night Stalker
FanfromAlbany Posted May 26, 2005 Posted May 26, 2005 Is this a remake of the Stephen King story? About the vampire who flys around in an airplane??? 345519[/snapback] I think that movie was called the "Night Flyer". That's the one with Miguel Ferrer, right? The one where the vampire was killing people at an airport.

SF Bills Fan Posted May 26, 2005 Posted May 26, 2005 when they saw the blip on the radar, and shot the flare i immediately thought that maybe they are attacting someone/something they didnt want to...then when i saw the boat, i knew it had to be the "others" tho...walt being the chosen one was a hell of a twist tho Un-friggin-believable... 345089[/snapback] I knew shooting the the flare was a mistake. Not a waste, but I thought that whatever showed up would be hostile.
Puhonix Posted May 26, 2005 Posted May 26, 2005 is this show even remotely realistic? 345564[/snapback] mmmmmm, No. But! There are parts of it that are extremely accurate. Airplanes do crash, and there are islands in the Pacific!
duey Posted May 26, 2005 Author Posted May 26, 2005 is this show even remotely realistic? 345564[/snapback] asked the life-long star trek fan.
USMCBillsFan Posted May 26, 2005 Posted May 26, 2005 Did anybody see the "extra scene" on Good Morning America? I DVR'd it and watched it during lunch. It was only an extended scene with Claire and Charlie and it turns out that Clair didn't name her baby for fear of losing it. And Charlie talked some more about how weird Rousseou was. Didn't miss much.
VABills Posted May 26, 2005 Posted May 26, 2005 mmmmmm, No. But! There are parts of it that are extremely accurate. Airplanes do crash, and there are islands in the Pacific! 345567[/snapback] What makes you think they are in the Pacific Ocean?
duey Posted May 26, 2005 Author Posted May 26, 2005 What makes you think they are in the Pacific Ocean? 345600[/snapback] What makes you think they're even on this planet? Or in this dimension?
Crap Throwing Monkey Posted May 26, 2005 Posted May 26, 2005 is this show even remotely realistic? 345564[/snapback] Realistic? No. Not even remotely. (But more so that 24.) But very, very smart and well-crafted. It's one of the rare shows that doesn't speak down to its audience.
