The best part of today was watching the first few minutes of Knight Rider 1.02 (or was it 1.03?) at my monthly sci-fi club and predicting what would happen. That's one show that I've gotta watch - and watch with other people, just for the joy of poking fun at it.
I also saw Terminator: SCC 2.03 today and have decided I should watch the rest of it. Although some of the characterisations bug me - such as Cameron's social cluelessness, and John's continuing cluelessness that disobeying might be a typical teenaged act of rebellion, but in his case, it gets people killed - like his mother's ex-fiancee's wife when he gave the ex-fiancee his phone number, and nearly him when he played hookey from Cameron.
We also watched Dr. Who: Resurrection of the Daleks, sort of - vintage Who. Because there were apparently several episodes dedicated to this storyline and we saw episode #1 and #3, and it definitely didn't finish at #3.
I'm kind of enjoying The Middleman, although it's a slightly odd show. Traditional British sci-fi style in an American setting, which actually works for me. I don't imagine it'll ever bean old man River particularly popular in America, but it's funny enough.
Does anyone know when Eureka comes back on in the US?
In spite of my continuing and growing dissatisfaction with SGA, I have enjoyed other shows, although none have grabbed me. Mostly, I think, I need to find a place to fit into the fandoms, although it would probably help if any of the characters really spoke to me. I like the physically kickass girls who aren't emotionally disconnected from the people around them. Not exactly a common complaint in science fiction.
Anyway, the club has been good for me this year, brought me into the realm of people that I wouldn't have otherwise met. And at $10 a month, it's way cheaper than paying $3000 for a round-the-world ticket every time I want to catch up with people who can talk sci-fi.

saeva? You were right. Sanctuary 1.04 was better.
