Yeah, I’ve been watching a lot of shows lately.
Besides for Rome, another semi good one is Invasion. It’s not nearly as good as Rome, it’s just mildly entertaining while I wait for Rome, or Prison Break, or Lost or Battlestar Galactica.
It’s about some weird lake and some weird aliens…or maybe not aliens. Who knows, the tempo is really slow. It has its tense moments, but into the 9th episode, you still don’t really know what’s going on in that community where the events take place.
And it has a run of the mill conspiracy theorist in it. Bleh. A cliché one too who thinks that the hurricane at the beginning of the first episode is the military’s doing. With no explanation given to why he thinks so.
But still…it’s sort of entertaining. Better then Threshold with its linguistic-mathematical-programmer-hacker-dwarf genious and the expert-of-all-things-scientific, played by that guy who played Data in Star Trek. Oh and he’s supposed to be a radical lefty in the show too.
They don’t convince. Sci-fi shows relly need to get better.
I want my BSG.
Sort of nice concept, the conspiracy theorist’s blogg
