Star Trek references, midgets and malevolent aliens...what's not to like?
After the disappointment of Supernatural, I really wasn't expecting too much out of this one. Was pleasantly surprised, tho. The cast is stiff but it takes at least a season for ensemble shows to find their groove, it seems.
Yes, the main character is way too young to be in the position she has - but who wants to see some old craggy woman, right?
Love Spiner - always have though. Glad to see he isn't a "Data" or even the hippy of ID4. He will be fun as the complaining malcontent.
Dinklage is cool - the character he is playing reminds me alot of the character in Armageddeon, but it is nice to see a brain that is not a nerd. Little people are most often cast as the comic relief, glad to see the producers are giving this talented actor a serious role.
The geeky guy is expected as well as the brawny military guy.
This one stays on the Season Pass list.

The Biggest Loser
Tuesdays - NBC
This is the first time I have watched this series and I missed the first half. I came in right at their Zero Gravity challenge. Guessed I missed the introductions and "how I got fat" stories. Oh well!
Are we supposed to believe that they lost all that weight in one week? One guy lost 28 pounds in one friggin' week! Did they give them some "fasting formula" aka laxatives? I guess I am just jealous because it has taken me 9 months to get off 20 pounds. Plus the skinny wench who is the trainer for the guys...okay I got it...you're a flat belly. I don't need to see your pubis to convince me of that.
The girls lost an easy .5 pound per girl due to the fact that they couldn't strip down to the flesh for weigh in. They were all wearing sports bras and t-shirts. Plus we all know that women weigh more at night than in the morning! One thing the girls have for them is that they are all pretty at their current weights. Once they get some pounds off, they will be gorgeous. There are a couple of the guys that will be butt ugly, weight or no weight.
This is a great show to watch while working out!
