[QUOTE]Originally posted by AndrewR: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Sol System: [qb] Is that so? [/qb][/QUOTE]What I'm trying to say is, if Star Trek: The Next Generation WASN'T the success (AND being a syndicated hour long sci-fi/fantasy based television show at that) We might only now have Television networks willing to fore-go millions of dollars on sci-fi/fantasy based television. Do you REALLY think that they would have green lighted a show called "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" if there was NOTHING around before it to show that there was an audience for this kind of thing? The types of shows on TV now might be up to something like the 50th CSI, CSI: Anchorage or the 100th Law and Order, Law and Order: Speed Camera Unit. I forgot to add a few shows: Starhunter, The Outer Limits (1995 version), Charmed, Space Precinct, Dark Skies, Jake 2.0, Now and Again, The Burning Zone, Odyssey 5, Tru Calling, Ghost Whisperer... plus more I'm sure. At the time the only similar show you could PROBABLY compare TNG with - albeit very slimly would be Red Dwarf - and that was a half hour British Comedy. [/QB][/QUOTE]
