I hated that DS9 was shown on WGN here in Chicago. It was constantly getting preempted by sports or moved to a new time. It made it impossible to watch. You couldn't even record it because you'd rewind your tape and have 30 minutes of some sports game that went long. It drove me crazy.

I remembered Descent being weaker than the others, but I always loved when Lore came back. And I remember it being cool that they brought Hugh back, too. I honestly can't remember much about Gambit, but I remember always being excited when TNG or DS9 did epic 2-parters. :)

I agree that Best of Both Worlds is the Gold Standard, but I'd go on record and say that from BoBW on Trek: TNG did great cliffhangers and payoffs. Redemption parts 1 and 2 where we meet the love child of Yesterday's Enterprise's alternate universe Tasha Yar and a Romulan. Time's Arrow 1 and 2 with Data, Picard, and

That's what I had heard growing up, but when I went to find that video the few I saw had someone else credited with playing Spiderman so I thought maybe I had been told wrong. Glad to hear it's true that Morgan once donned the red and blue jammies. :)

Is it true that Terry Nation screwed over Raymond Cusick who actually designed the look of the Daleks? That's what I heard/read (can't remember where) and it always really irritated me.

Now playing

Does no one remember the robotic uprising of the mid-90s?

Has there ever been an A&E Biography show (or something similar) about Fred Rogers? I'll have to look around. I loved this video.

"Plus you can see the stairs leading up the back, that has to provide a pretty nice grounding element for it."

That show as a whole is one of a kind. I absolutely loved it. I'm trying to think if I've ever seen a TV show that made me think "Oh, there trying to do another Quantum Leap". As opposed to, say, Fringe which to me seemed like an attempt to redo X-Files or any of the countless space shows that seemed to be Trek

Are you kidding me? Out of Gas had Kaylee humping in the engine room.

Thank you! I was just about to post this, too. I don't understand why people say the ending of the series negated the entire show. Everything that happened from season 1 to the end actually happened, with the exception of the sideways world which was the purgatory construct where they could bring everybody together

I'm no wordsmith so I probably won't be able to explain it very well, but if you've never seen the ep, it wasn't the death of the character (which was a punch to the gut) that made the episode stand out so much as much as it was the way Joss Whedon filmed it to maximize that punch in the gut feeling in the audience.

"Here are 10 single episodes of science fiction and fantasy shows that changed television forever. "

I'm sorry if that came across snarkier than I intended. :)

Space bridge? It's a hyperspace bypass. You've got to build bypasses.

T3 came out the same year as Matrix Reloaded and while I mostly enjoyed the crazy CGI highway chase in M2, I thought the crane truck chase from T3 was awesome. Maybe because it was all (as far as I know) practical effects instead of CGI effects. Sure, T3 was the weakest of the three, but I still enjoyed the poop out

How about this for a new sci-fi TV show? :)

I loved the joke TV shows in Forgetting Sarah Marshall. Crime Scene: Scene of the Crime and Animal Instincts. So typically American TV. :)

I wonder if that's because they kept hoping it would be the next X-Files. I tried watching it but couldn't get into it. In my personal opinion, it was trying too hard to be X-Files. Maybe I'll give it another shot some day on DVD, but it just never held my interest.
