The Dave Thomas Comedy Show (1990)
Not to be forgotten...
It is a such a pleasure to see that others remember this show. Dave Thomas' show was one of those magic moments in television, that was unfortunately to good to stay on the air. I guess the world wasn't ready for someone brilliant enough to turn Max Von Sydow into a barber. Mot every man can bring us good Max Von Sydow humor. With all of the shows headed by comedians that have come and gone this was one of the best. From SCTV to Strange Brew Dave Thomas has and still does give us something to laugh at. In this day and age isn't that what we really need? Would love to see this on DVD, especially with never before aired episodes.
Battlestar Galactica (2004)
What Sci Fi Should Be
Finally a space series without the preachiness of Star Trek and the whining of Star Wars. This is dark, gritty, and REAL. Not more right wing family values B.S. Real people make moral compromise everyday, especially when they are struggling to survive. Isn't that what all humanity is all about? This show might scare some people when they realize it forces them to look in mirror and see their own humanity. Cheers to SciFi for putting together the best space drama in years, and it just keeps getting better.
For all the naysayers out there, this remake is already about to over take the original BSG series in total episodes, and its not going anywhere.
