I'm with you too, CaseOrange...the media shows the same bias toward the horror genre, as well. Heck, the studios even invented a new euphamism for horror so they wouldn't have to label their movies as such...they could market them as "Thrillers", like Silence of the Lambs...which is about a killer who skins women to wear their flesh after torturing them in a pit...but oh no - its not a horror movie, its a 'thriller'! Basically, any genre works, sci-fi, horror, or fantasy, will never get the proper respect from the media and from critics, no matter how many Exorcists, Blade Runners, or Lord of the Rings we see...you just have to get past it and note that critics name to add to your personal ignore list....personally the only man who's movie reviews I ever trusted to begin with was Joe Bob Briggs...

Welcome, Adama. Just curious; as a first-time viewer to both, how did you find the NBC version compared?

Instead of spreading it all out, let's try to concentrate all discussion of tonight's airing under one roof here.

So far, the into walk-thru with Doral was snipped, and I can't be sure because I was looking away for a moment, but I don't remember hearing Six's "are you alive?" line, but I coulda just missed it. There's more, but its only halfway over. All in all, they've done a great editing job so far; actually probably iless than I would have been in cutting, to the shows advantage.

Aaron Douglas stopped in & said they ratings were initially in the high 3's, but after all factors are tabulated might drop off up to 20%. I'd expect to hear something official in the next few hours.

Only Blade Runner bites, and only then if you take his Twinkies away. Welcome

Excellent piece by an obviously partial reviewer. Can't wait for the NBC showing

Well, whatever the case, no one has been trolling HERE, so let's try to keep issues about other boards & their members off of these boards, which don't have anything to do with the situation....

Is that actually a 'rule'; that you can't say anything bad about TOS there? I watched the marathon of TOS on SCi-Fi today after not seeing it for a few years....so I better just keep my mouth shut
