Major thanks to whomever it was that nominated Perpetuity for a Children of Time award! It was a very hard story to write so I'm really happy it resonated enough with someone for them to nominate it! :)

Joe Spano is absolutely made of win. I haven't seen Hill Street in AGES though. Oh, but he was on NYPD Blue some. I liked him as a washed up detective he really sold the role.

He was so *eager* in Hill Street. I adore Joe Spano. I've yet to see him in anything I didn't like him in.

He's the kind that really immerses himself in the character- really makes it work

Yep.

there are NOT enough actors like that

I'm just glad we've got a batch of them on NCIS. ;-) Mark Harmon's the same way.

Oh, and that reminds me, SciFi is doing a Dark Angel marathon on Wednesday, I think. I find it interesting that it ends just in time for the USA NCIS run. :-)

with an hour to spare. the scifi marathons usually end at 3 and NCIS starts at 4. Is it S2 Dark Angel? I've seen all the episodes tons of times. MW in stubble and those glasses? *sighs happily*

I have no idea which season.

I don't usually care for stubble, but man, he wears it well. ;-)

I looked it up, end of S2, he's hair's more floppy and less sexy by then. Oh well. I'll probably watch it anyway though.

In general, I hate how scifi does their week days. Give me a show that runs every day at X time and show the episodes in order, please. That way I can really get to know and like a show and get a true feel for it. I hate this random show being thrown on and not even showing the 6 episodes in order necessarily.

I'm just glad they occasionally show something other than really, *really*, idiotic 'reality' shows.

oh I HATE those with a fiery passion. Although, I like being able to click on at a certain time and know what I'll be watching. I rarely even click scifi on during the day anymore because I dont think about it, there's no show I know will be on to draw me there. And if they do happen to be showing something I like it'll wind up being some section I've seen 50 million times or can't stand.

I long for the days of All SG-1, All The Time. :-) They've got TEN seasons of that sitting around and they hardly ever show it. Instead we get Ghost ~~Facers~~ Hunters or some other similar crap.

Yes! although it is back on once a day at least. What I find weird is scifi channel has SO many shows they made and never show. Invisible Man was great! Secret Adventures of Jules Verne- steampunk ftw! And Eureka is still getting new episodes- but they never never show them.

I really miss Eureka! What is *with* these idiots?

I don't know!

I do give them credit for buying shows that got canceled off other networks, lasting even less than a season and showing them. If you ever have a chance to see "Threshold" or "All Saints" or "Haunted" you should. All canceled well before their time. I just don't understand why they don't show their OWN shows!

We just have to keep reminding ourselves that these are the same geniuses who think wrestling is desired programming for SF fans.

oh yeah- and it's actually getting them good ratings. *shudders*

Well, yeah, the wrestling morons follow it wherever it goes. Doesn't mean it they watch anything else on the channel, though. And yes, there probably is some crossover, just like there's crossover for other types of programming. I just can't imagine it's bringing new viewers for anything but that.

all I know is that it followed Eureka and I JUMPED to change the channel. Most of the time I'm more lackadaisical about doing that.

Same here. No way did I want to see even a second of it. It's repulsive.

there's this commercial for it a few minutes before the end of eureka- once or twice I'd accidentally turn it off then, thinking it had started.

*shudder*

At least Eureka is out on DVD. And my local library got it so I didn't have to. Now if only "Secret life of Jules Verne" would be released on DVD. Or "Invisible Man" *sighs*

I really want to get the Eureka DVDs.

I've found if I own them I put off watching them, but if I borrow them I watch them right away. I am weird
