Man, does Billy Magnusson ever play anything other than a villain?

I loved it.

RIP Gary, you always looked like you had fun acting.

Gary Graham is a great “hey it’s that guy!” actor. Shame to have lost him...

Damn, this sucks! He was such an underrated actor. I’ve been recently rewatching all the Star Trek shows in chronological order of when they take place. That means I started off with Enterprise, and he was great as Soval. I also watched Alien Nation a lot when Syfy was The SciFi Channel and airing reruns of it.  RIP.

I think Fox deserves credit for being more willing to take a change on SF shows than other major networks.

Also they can’t handle saltwater, like a surprising number of alien threats.

At least three great moments in that sequence: jumping into the room and tangling in the curtains; covering the photog’s camera with his hat; and angrily banging on his car roof and growling (personal fave). I also forgot how great the opening theme was, especially for that era of TV. 

Alien Nation wasn’t a bad TV show, especially for early Fox Network.

I thought they were referencing the Frank Sinatra song.

Lol.  You’re not that old.  I thought they were referencing the Frank Sinatra song.

Those abortion performing Mexican pool boys are well known manipulators who constantly victimize straight orange Men.

Vivek had dictator hair and death camp eyes. I’m not sure why he thought all the white people (he wishes he was) would go for him, but I’m sure his orange master will put him to good use.

I don’t get this either. Hitler was equally unimpressive personally, but Hitler was at least supposed to be a spellbinding public speaker in a time before TV (I don’t understand German so don’t know how true that is, but I’ve always read it). Trump looks dumb, lives in bankruptcy court, can’t even bluster commandingly

He’s such an annoying little puke.

It’s a cult of personality. But Trump doesn’t even have a good personality.  He’s just tall and loud.

“Don’t Tell Mom the Babysitter’s Dead” remains one of my favorite movies from my childhood.

I almost forgot just how blisteringly funny and quick-witted Applegate is. She was without question the highlight of the night.

Kelly was always a character known for prompting the hootin’ and hollerin’ from the “your dad and uncles embarrassing themselves at Hooters” studio audience, but even back then, she had some absolutely sublime comic timing and delivery that would continue throughout her career.

Applegate has had a really tough road in recent years between the MS diagnosis and the double mastectomy and oophorectomy.
