Indeed he's the main character and has been throughout. Rumours say he will appear in a "handful" of episode, some say 6; the same number applying for Sarah Chalke.

I'm a big fan of Futurama. The movies aren't that great, but it's certainly better than nothing. Haven't seen the third one, though.

Saw this episode called "Jurassic Bark" last night - about Fry's dog being found as a fossil. He wanted to clone it, but in the end he decided not to, since they learned that the dog had lived for another 12 years or so after Fry disappeared. In other words, the dog had had a full life after his life with Fry. At the end of the episode it turns out the dog had in fact been sitting outside Fry's pizzeria every day the rest of its life, waiting for him to come back.

I miss my dog...

Confession time: I almost cried at the end of that episode. It was just such a poignant scene. :shh:

I'm actually surprised at the quality of some of the episodes (not all, mind you). The classical issue of "what if our universe is just a grain of sand in another universe" is picked up in several; time travel; dreams-within-dreams... Watching "The Sting", I just knew something was up with Fry talking to Leela in her dreams, telling her to "wake up". Brilliant plot. :tsup:

Anyone still watching, even? :D
So what's going to happen next season? Do we start over as if there was no crash? But what about everyone else -- who are still on the island and interacted in important ways with the Oceanic survivors?

The consensus is that the bomb didn't go off, and the light was them time jumping again...

They'll prob use the bomb in the present though...


Also, they're so ripping off Legacy of Kain it's not even funny...

I'm rewatching also. Currently somewhere towards the end of season 3. Season 5 reeeeaaaly stank, though. Well, most of it, anyhow (the stuff to do with the telepaths). Still, better than lots of other things out there, the characters were there at least.

The space chickens episode with the janitors saved it IMO...

The best parts of Season 5 was Londo and G'Kar, naturally. And I also liked the way Lyta turned out. Great scene when she is asked by Garibaldi if she wants to move cells so they don't have to worry about the surveillance camera; she closes her eyes, the camera explodes and she goes: "What camera?" :D

Londo and G'Kar are always great. In fact, I think they might be the best thing about B5!

Yes, especially when they're no longer real enemies, and just mock one another for the fun of it. :D

Guess I have to start watching 24, since Katee Sackhoff is in it...

Also... guess this thread is dead...

Anybody watching "Castle"?

We all know Nathan Fillion rocks, of course. Not quite sure about that particular show yet, though.
