It is not "terrifying". It's a perfectly reasonable thing to expect when you surrender physical access to the device. If an attacker has physical access to the device they want to attack, and can operate without fear of the proper owner catching them in the act, they can do anything with that device.

They actually said that? Really? Man, I want their drugs.

It's biggest weakness is that it never really strives for the insanity of Rocky Horror or the sheer idiocy of Plan-9. It weighs itself down with what is a pretty mundane side-plot- Trog and his mom coping with Real Life(tm). The show exists in a world where a corporate magnate can privatize a city's governance and…

Totally.

Does "writers with a poor understanding of how the world works" count as a superpower? Characters do superhuman things, but none of them are officially credited with superpowers.

And the inane dialogue, the ridiculous assassination methods used (wait, the guy in the Middle East just got sniped from a mile away, and so obviously, they have to use the gadget to kill the Cape?). I also noticed how a large section of the climax took place in a theater.

Poor writing? Or amazing writing? Well, I suppose these things aren't mutually exclusive- it's amazingly poor writing.

This episode was utterly fantastic, at least if you slept through the parts involving Trog and Trog's Mom.

Perhaps some are too young to remember The X-Files

I am glad that Amy gets to buckle some swashes.

Wow, I hope 90% of that list doesn't get made. There are a few gems in the shitpile, but ugh.

It's not laying the blame- it's the fact that she's a dead albatross sitting on the deck. And I mean that on several levels.

Honestly, if they removed the Cape, Trog and Trog's Mom, and made the show about Keith David and Rollo, the show would be markedly better.

I'm not surprised in the least, but I am saddened. Everything about the show was designed for failure. And that's before you add Summer "Kiss of Death" Glau.

Sorry, but the Ramada In(n) Space just doesn't compare to the TOS Enterprise. Old school, represent.

One thing this show doesn't have: subtlety. She's definitely his daughter.

@Master_Soda: Pretty much.

@ditikos: My post apparently failed to cross the sarchasm.

Zombies and Transformers? THERE ARE TWO IDEAS NOT TOTALLY PLAYED OUT! THIS IS SO ORIGINAL AND AWESOME.
