[QUOTE]Originally posted by Shik: [QB] Speaking of dead TV shows, I have recently downloaded & begun watch 2 shows, one that I watched & then lost, the other that I never saw before. The first is [i]Lexx[/i]. if anyone recalls, it was a Germano-Canadian production that was set some 4300 years in the past (well, most of it, anyway), & had a giant planet-destroying insect ship ([i]Lexx[/i] itself) & a crew of a cowardly sex-obsessed frump, a hot love slave chick, a robot head in love with the love slave, & a 2000-year-old dead assassin prophesied to topple the evil empire of His Divine Shadow. Filled with all sorts of mid-level gore, sexual innuendoes & outrightness, & some seriously fucked up shit in plots, backgrounds, settings & the like. The show was on Sci-Fi for a few years & then it ended. I watched the first movies & most of the second season, but I ended up losing due to...work or moving, one of the 2. The other show is one that I am ashamed to say I had not seen until now: [i]The Adventures Of Brisco County, Jr.[/i] While [i]Lexx[/i] requires me to sit for a bit between sessions, I have been spending the past few day rapaciously devouring [i]Brisco County[/i]. I knew that Jeffrey Boam, screenwriter for Indy 3, was partly behind it; I did not know that Carleton Cuse was part of the team, too. (Cuse is behind [i]Lost[/i] & one of my favorite shows, [i]Nash Bridges[/i]. Indeed, I see a lot of actor cross over with [i]Brisco[/i] & [i]Nash[/i].) I'm definitely enjoying the series & wonder why I didn't watch it when it first aired; probably didn't get hooked by the western aspect, Bruce Campbell or no. Also, having read Campbell's autobiography, it makes watching the show that much more fun. I'm loving it now, especially John Astin as Professor Wickwire...& of course, Dixie & the Schwenke sisters.
