#1 frigid project II

Post by frigidmagi »

List of shows that I have that are both live action and at least slightly Science Fictiony. If there's a show not on the poll you want to suggest, go ahead and knock yourself out. No seriously make the suggestion. Unless it's X Files or Red Dwarf.

I'm also thinking of tracking down Eureka again, as I lost my copy of the 1st season (I lost interest with the time travel bit, man I am tired of time travel.)

I start school up again in January. No time. So pick one for me to do until Christmas.

Probably TOS Trek, or B5. Maybe even FarScape. If the cut-off date is by xmas then I guess you should go for a show that has around a hundred episodes? That's just over three months, if you go by an episode a day.

EDIT Which version of TOS do you have? Do you have the remastered versions? A review of them would suit me actually, since all I have is the original tv ones.

There's people who actually liked Brisco County Jr?
And I didn't even know there was a Tremors TV series.
Oh, and B5. If you still had it I'd vote Eureka because I would very much like to know what other people think about that series (I personally love it, though I too was somewhat miffed by the time travel stuff-though I think that happened quite a bit later).

Which tells me whichever one wins that Tremors needs to be next, because it was damn fun if sadly short. Only a single season.

Alright I will leave this up for one more night then on Wednesday morning, I will lock the thread. If there is no clear winner, we will have a runoff.

Given the spread, I would say you should do a runoff regardless. You might have a winner, but it is not a consensus.

That sounds like dirty Euro socialist hippie talk. :razz:

What the hell, we'll do a runoff, just to show that I can accommodate our dirty Euro socialist hippie members :wink:
