    Nah, just blonde.

    "Pull the string!"

    PK: Wars was originally broadcast on the SCI-FI channel (now known as the Sy-Fy channel) in 2004, a year after the series was unexpectedly cancelled in 2003.

    First viewing of PK: Wars left a really bad taste in my mouth, if only because of the litany of "what the f*cks" I kept spewing at every distortion of character and dim-witted plot turn O'Bannon hurled at the screen for wider audience appeal. That opinion still hasn't changed. But the wormhole climax, and putting to

    “Dead at last, Dead at last, Thank God almighty I'm dead at last.

    Though even Moffat's contributions didn't escape RTD's touch ups or rewrites.

    With the exception of this last season, Moffat's run turned me off the show. But It's not like Chibnall has a laudable track record either.

    HA! Can you imagine BB as the Doctor?

    Well, here's hoping we get a fit male companion too.

    Ya, the Farscape those of us came to love doesn't actually show up until "Durka Returns". The episodes preceding are a show in search of a beat.

    O'Bannon wrote it for potentially wider audience and consequently dumbed it down a lot, particularly a number of the supporting characters. The ending wormhole sequence, however, is still gripping (shoutout to the effects team and Guy Gross's music score).

    Ahhh…my favourite sci-fi/fantasy series.

    No. It's just a protracted Budweiser commercial.

    Inertia.

    At the back of the fridge behind the cat's food.

    Essentially you have to disinvite approx. 5-6 billion humans from tomorrow.

    Found it rather schematic and not terribly involving with an underwhelming use of music (not helped by needle dropping The Rite of Spring and the intro to the 2nd part of Daphnis and Chloe three times!). Instead, George Fenton's score for A Handful of Dust kept bubbling to the forefront of my mind.

    Simon won't say.

    Nope. Not even close to being as bad as The Strain.

    I'm still getting an 80's low budget B-movie kick out of it.
