Thought this was a post about Epstein at first.

First few episodes were fine, but in general the show was quite trashy. I still enjoyed it anyway.
Some really amazing performances in it for some of the villains.
Exciting! I've always wanted to see it.
OK, for anyone who hasn't seen Corner Gas, it's one of the all-time great sitcoms. Genuinely laugh-out-loud funny, every episode.
Head-canon: Gimli left with the elves, and his descendents grew taller and taller, until one of them became a time traveler.
Is this a spinoff from the Canadian show Bizarre ?
I had adventures in typing. I remember enjoying it.
The GAME is from 1995?
Now I feel old.
If anyone is looking for a good low-stim tv series for younger kids, there's a Frog and Toad series from apple tv that's pretty great. Right up there with Little Bear in my opinion.
Whoa, wait, hold up! There was a cartoon show of MiB? How did I never know this?
Such an amazing show...If you haven't watched it it's a must see!
Not numbered in broadcast order, which is good for those new to the show. The pilot episode was the last to air in the original run. Fox really screwed this show over.
When the show aired, a couple of the original versions of the pilot leaked online. After having watched the first few episodes, I was intrigued enough to do my first bit of video piracy. I have to admit the pacing was slow, and I could see why Fox might've wanted it punched up a bit (neither had the Battle of Serenity Valley opening) - but they should've handled that problem earlier in the process so it could be ready on time, or just let it go through since it was so essential to set up a show so different than anything else people were used to seeing.
Regardless, despite this and other setbacks - like poor promotion prior to the show's premiere, scheduling it in the "timeslot of death" (Friday night at 9 PM when most of the younger audience that advertisers covet used to routinely be out drinking/clubbing/partying/whatever back when this show was released), and conflicts with broadcasting the baseball World Series caused the show to be broadcast at off hours in some markets - the show still consistently managed roughly four million viewers throughout its run. It didn't drop off like some show that was failing to get an audience, so obviously it had strong appeal to those who gave it a shot.
I think also there was an issue in that it was released not long after the Internet took off - which suddenly gave people tons more entertainment options, and network execs expectations may not have caught up to that reality yet. An audience of four million before the Web distracted people would've been considered a bit on the low side for an expensive new show, and that's the lens established execs may have been using to judge its success in part because the new post-Web reality wasn't nearly fleshed out yet.
I love this show.
My brothers and I watched this show regularly especially the first three seasons. I remember how even though it was set in the 60s and 70s it fairly accurately represented the universal experience of being that age. I'm about 10 years younger than Kevin so I wasn't that far removed from that time.
One thing I remember about the show is how much young men identified with it and how most girls didn't. I've always been hesitant to rewatch it because I don't know how it would hold up and I'd rather keep my memories of watching it.
Daaang you suna bitch!
It's been a while since I was reminded of this
Top Gun: NASCAR Edition
Not that there wasn't cool stuff beyond Season 5, cause there was, but... should've ended at Season 5.
Ah, yea, The Tempest is a better match! (My memory jumbled it all up, thanks for the correction).
Started out pretty strong, but the later seasons degraded
As much as I'd like to say it's such a shame what happened to him, I'm kinda glad he missed what's happened since.
I am the terror, that flaps in the night!
A surprisingly good film that is well paced.
I think they meant that it’s the storyline of Homer’s The Odyssey, but it takes place in space. I just looked into it, and I saw on Wikipedia that the characters and plot have been compared to Shakespeare’s The Tempest, “leading many to consider it a loose adaptation.”
In any case, thanks for posting this! I’ll have to add it to my watch list!
The thing is for a long time TV stuff used to be produced, aired and then it was gone.
Some things also were saved, onto the video rolls of the time, which at some point randomly begins to deteriorate into Vinegar and other stuff, the vinegar stinks and breaks apart the remaining parts of the roll.
Also some poeple saved the episodes on their VHS at home, however the next week it would just overwritten again with new content.
So basically it is a wonder that there even are that many episodes and it was a giant community effort mostly to gather those we have.
Or maybe I'm just speaking out of my ass, but this is the internet, how would you know?
