  • Beardless Riker makes Ensign at best. How could they have possibly promoted him to Commander looking like such a doofus? That guy would have been a regular old redshirt on the OS without his facial hair.

    Hi, there !

    I feel like such a late bloomer, having only just discovered Dr. Who and Torchwood this past spring ...... OMG ..... I'm in love with all of it ...... even my husband watches the reruns with me ...... but he hates the Daleks & makes me keep the volume turned down low for those episodes !

    We grew up with Star Trek, and then Star Wars ...... (not comparing either) ...... then my husband found Stargate & Stargate Atlantis for me ...... I take back all the bad things I ever said about him :laugh:

    LIFE IS GOOD !

    Holy Crap... Farscape... now THERE's a name I haven't heard in a long time!! lol

    So Netflix could become your new best friend as well. I missed a few episodes the first time through and am finally filling in the gaps.
    How about Lexx? Or Space Precinct?



    Oh.....and....."But it was funny, huh?"

    Nice to see so many of you! I'm an engineer so that's practically being a nerd for a living. Plus Star Trek, Star Wars (love them both, though I married into the Trek), DnD tabletop, LotR, WoT, videgamer with MMORPGs, old Lucas Arts games, Portal (someone's avatar beat me to this), Mass Effect...anything sci fi / fantasy I am probably a fan!

    Feel free to add me as a friend if...
    You know Undiscovered Country was the best Star Trek movie
    You know Empire Strikes Back was the best Star Wars movie (and there are only 3)
    There are four lights
    The cake is a lie
    Or maybe you just geek out with spreadsheet after spreadsheet to track your weight loss like I do!

My table top stuff has been D&D 3rd ed. and 4th ed. though many purists hate 4th ed but I loved it! I love my current mmo Ever crack 2 *cough* I mean Ever Quest 2. I will need to check out this *Dr. Who* business everyone talks about! My friends love it so maybe there is something to it huh? Add me if you like!

    Moon... Glad we could be of service!! ;-)

    Nerdybre... Haven't checked into the new shows... with the crazy schedule I keep, I am at the mercy of what BBC America allows my cable company to put on OnDemand


    I discovered Sherlock and IT crowd on Netflix. I have to watch all new BBC stuff on ONdemand too. As of late, I am rewatching Buffy. I can't concentrate on anything new since my life is topsy turvy right now, so Buffy it is for now.

    Once you watch it, your life will never be the same. Ever time I hear a noise that sounds like the TARDIS, I get all fangirl squeaky and wanna run out and catch The Doctor.

    My people, I have found you!

    I have always been a sci-fi nerd thanks to my dad and older siblings. Buck Rogers, Lost in Space, Dr. Who, Star Trek, Star Wars all things I watched when I was younger. No one has mentioned Stargate or Andromeda?!?! Mutant X was also not a bad show. Of course good sci-fi is hard to come by on TV nowadays. Haven isn't too bad . I do love the BBC's Sherlock and 3 episodes per season is just not enough. I'm waiting to see if the Red Dwarf relaunch (same original actors) is going to make it on to tv over here.

    I'm also a gamer nerd and Final Fantasy is my addiction. But when I saw the atari collection for playstation I had to buy that, I mean megamania, frostbite, pitfall, asteroids and tunnel runner - what's not to love.

    Oh and uh....Thank you for flying Church of England, Cake or Death....
