No comments on Buffy Online[Update: Read Dan’s response to this post along with my comments on his response.] There’s a bit of talk at the moment of how an AI-type game set in the Buffy universe would be a good thing. I think in general, yes, it wouldn’t be bad, but it wouldn’t be without its faults. Also, I…

Funny Trek?
Continuing the Trek theme (don’t worry, it won’t last forever), here’s a list of funniest Voyager quotes. Believe me, they’re funny! Well, I think so, anyway.

Trekkie
Some interesting rumours about the future of the Star Trek franchise. Could Jonathon ‘Riker’ Frakes head a new Star Trek series? Will they cover the Fall of the Federation? Does anyone apart from me care? Find out next week in the astonishing conclusion to…

Pushing
Okay, I know that I’m a bit harsh on Push, Nevada, but it seems that I’m nothing compared to some, as shown by this (unfortunately) fake press release entitled ABC Cancels Entire Schedule. An excerpt: “Push, Nevada,” a high-concept mystery series produced by Ben Affleck, Matt Damon and Sean Bailey and sponsored by the IRS,…

Push, Nevada, the game with the million dollar prize, is on its last legs.

BBC News
I’ve gotten into a habit of synchronising my lunch with the 1’o’clock BBC News, and after a few weeks you can almost predict what they’ll be showing when. For example, at roughly 1:16pm you can be sure that they’ll begin some kind of lighthearted piece that is accompanied by suitably cheesy music, unlike all the…

What’s the Point of Push?
I’m having a real problem with what ABC’s Push, Nevada programme is supposed to be about now. I recently read an article (I can’t remember where) which described how both ABC and Liveplanet are saying that the show will do badly, underplaying expectations. Apparently only a tiny audience is expected for the series, due to…

The Mission
Back in the 80s, there was a science fiction series directed by Stephen Spielberg called Amazing Stores. Aside from its intro sequence, which was rather impressive for that time, most episodes were pretty uninspiring and dismal. There was one episode that it seems everyone (including me) remembers: The Mission. ‘The Mission’ was by all accounts…

Dream Time
I just saw an advert on the Sky Chinese Channel (PCNE) for a show that can only be described as the Chinese version of ‘Dream Team’. For those of you who don’t know about it (i.e. 99% of you), it’s a football soap opera on Sky One. I hear that football is becoming a big…

College Girls
It strikes me that, so far, the Channel 4 documentary College Girls is giving people a very skewed view of life in Oxbridge. I understand that documentaries have to concentrate on the more interesting aspects of their subjects, which is why the first episode was about a student activist refusing to pay her university fees…
