This is slightly off topic, but I think that corporations have too much
influence over the artistic decision making of most of the tv shows and
movies as of late. STV and DS9 could have been better shows if they weren't
being milked for every dollar.

Blacks in Space
If sci-fi is the future, why is it so white?

Star Trek's Lt. Uhura was a science-fiction pioneer in the 1970s -- a black
woman answering the phone, I mean computer, in space. Uhura, played by actress
Nichelle Nichols, was the commu

Have you seen 'Flags of our Fathers'? Same thing, with all Marines shown as

Fortunately, I don't have to tune in for "Supernatural" myself. A friend DVRs
it, and I watch it with him and his wife when I visit them on Saturdays.

Oh I think it would be LOVELY as a radio drama, which I think means that it was
just well done in all aspects. On another, I have to say that the incessant
chant "Sidnery Briar is alive." was just so creepy and beautiful and insanely

I saw it the same weekend Watchmen came out. Mchattie and the two
female leads were all in attendance. There was a q&a, but Canuck

Huzzah!

Well I needed my weekly Supernatural fix and I liked Reaper as well. Plus I
watched Everybody Hates Chris and The Game. I also liked their shortlived show
Easy Money. Now that everything but Supernatural is gone they are sliding off
my radar.

I really want to see it but none of our theaters is showing it and I don't have
the IFC pay channel.

That would make sense. Though it is a sad indictment on the system, shelving a
movie project because its badly-conceived and executed marketing ploy failed.
