And, it's a blatant copyright violation, too. Sure, nobody in their right mind is going to actually pay real money to watch "Pluto Nash," but still... it's illegal.

WAT?

Where did this come from? Is this like "Fort Fantasy Apache?" "DS9 with Dragons?"

There's a lot of possibilities with something like that, especially with long storylines and subplots that keep viewers hooked. I'm going to try to remember to watch this, thanks! I just hope they don't turn it into some sappy/crappy socio-political-statement garbage. I'm apprehensive at what looks like a female lead. NOT because I don't like female leads, just because of all the femenisactivism that is going on right now. It's a dangerous moment for a female lead that could run afoul of people insisting she confront a "Me Too" moment or, instead of being a strong character, get caught up in some "Hollywood-inspired" related storyline that goes nowhere and ultimately does nothing. (It seems it's so darn easy for someone to put a bug in someone's ear, or a producer's, to get a character to do something to respond to some "cause" and then it just breaks the darn character to bits.)

Thanks for the recommendation! Will watch!

Please, please, please be good... Please don't be "90210 with Dragons." :)

IMDB (internet movie database) has started their own streaming site called imdb freedive. You can watch Fringe, Warehouse 13, Caprica, Lexx, Quantum Leap and some other shows for free with ads. US region locked. The imdb channel is available to watch on prime US region without a prime subscription. I think IMDB freedive has another non prime video site also.

Link to US region channel on US prime video site below. If you use a browser and a region thing you'll have to log in through the US site.

I think the freedive app is available on amazon firesticks, etc... also.

Interesting. There's also a reboot of "Project Blue Book" as well. I'm not sure if it's a real "reboot" of the old show or not, but it looks interesting.

Recently had a surprise new entry into my five favourite films. - 'Wildling.' I'd been scanning Sky for something to watch and stumbled across it. It's a pretty simplistic plot, but fulfilling and a little poignant at the same time. Name and the promotional poster more or less explain what it's about.

Watched series 2 opening episode over the weekend, and enjoyed very much. It's a different theme/story to the 1st series, and a fresh link as been forged to the original series. I would say I spent a couple of minutes a little confused as I tried to pick up the thread, but it was worthwhile. Recommended (Available on Netflix in the UK.)

The pilot for a new series 'The Passage' is available of Sky. It's an interesting take on what I imagine is gonna end up as a vampire apocalypse with well-meaning yet utterly unethical scientists trying to create a panacea by infected people with the 'disease.' The plot seems to revolve around the conclusion that only someone very young can be infected and maintain their humanity, and the agent who is supposed to bring the selected child to the facility feeling conflicted over it.

Episode 2 is aired on Tuesday (on Sky - UK.)
