Guys & gals – when G4TV first came up with Star Trek 2.0, our reporter Christine Roberts did an extensive story about it at the time. It can be found here:

Now if I can only get the on-air personalities to remember these things ๐
Summer Brooks says
You say “remember” like it’s an easy thing…
Brian Brown says
What is this “remembering” you speak of sir?!
Vanamonde says
RE: Stranger than Fiction
Was I only the one who thought the ending was a copout? the Will Ferrell character should have died.
Fred Hicks says
Hey folks. Just wanted to say, I’m just as excited about the Dresden Files series coming out as anyone — I’m a long-time friend of Jim Butcher’s, webmaster on Jim-Butcher.Com, and one of the folks working on the upcoming Dresden Files RPG. So excited, in fact, that I’ve started a Jim Butcher focused podcast as part of an effort to take Jim-Butcher.Com into the podcasting age! It’s called the “Butcher Block” and you can check it out here: http://butcherblock.libsyn.com/
Keep up the good work, folks. When I started listening to this podcast starting with your interview with Jim, I didn’t think I had time for another podcast, but it’s been so fun, I’ve been making the time. Thanks again!
Fred Hicks says
One other thing I left out —
Sadly, Daybreak has been cancelled. ABC’s airing the remaining episodes online only, but it’s still a crushing disappointment. What a fantastic, criminally underrecognized show.
Brian says
On Borg vs. Cylons, don’t you think that the Borg might be jealous of the Cylons? Aren’t the Cylons the embodiment of what the Borg are looking for?
fred says
Cylon vs borg is a cool idea. But for the holiday season I’m thinking Burger King vs Scream.
Michael Mennenga says
I have seen the first two episodes of the Dresden files. (Yeah, it’s good to be the king ๐
Let me assure everyone. This series is going to be all that we hoped it would be.
More about it on the next show.
