I worry about this "Platinum Age" of broadcast entertainment, as entertainment becomes more and more reasonably competent to live our lives for us.
Hey, before I forget, I want to recommend "Masters of Science Fiction" to you. It's abc, I believe, and Saturday nights after 10. It's a sleeeeeeper smackdown. This week's episode featured Anne Heche, for kitsche, it was riveting and excellent science fiction. So au courant, it hits hard.
I remember watching episodes of "The Outer Limits" in first run and being so surprised by what was being presented. Subsequent viewings dramatically lessen the impact of the scenic progression.
One of my favorite topics is time travel versus the incontestable immutability of the soul, although I have ... just lately been grateful for the entertainment options I enjoy each day. Going from CIA Black Sites to E!TopTen feels much like driving from Mendocino back to the WC in a go: the sudden change in pressure can be very jarring to the system. Guess it's just time to take another sip of the KoolAid and get back to work. brb
