TV reviews by Rick Norwood
From time to time, a science fiction classic is given the direct to video treatment. The results are usually
pitiful. But the only good direct to video adaptation of a SF classic for Rick is the 1992
movie Grand Tour: Disaster in Time, written by David Twohy, based on the story "Vintage Season," by
Henry Kuttner and C.L. Moore.

Babylon 5.1
TV reviews by Rick Norwood
Battlestar Galactica seems to have lost some of its momentum this season. It has certainly lost some of its
viewers -- less than two million people tune in each week.
The good news is that Heroes just keeps getting better and better. Heroes currently has more
than 14 million viewers every week.

It begins with Heroes, the hit NBC series echoed on SciFi a few days after it airs the network. Then comes the

acclaimed SciFi original series. And finally, reruns of the cancelled 2005 network series, Threshold.

Babylon 5.1
TV reviews by Rick Norwood
"The pilot for The Flash is so lame and listless that the only way I could sit through it was to rewrite it in
my head. In the pilot, we get a full screen shot of thunderclouds, lightening and thunder simultaneous, ominous music. Then a
quick cut to the Barry Allen in the lab and the most famous scene in the entire story of The Flash. Lightning hits a shelf of
chemicals and spills them all over Barry. Only the way it is presented is deadly dull."

Babylon 5.1
TV reviews by Rick Norwood
The appeal of Doctor Who is curious -- somehow cheesy special effects are compensated for by the
Doctor's cheeky insouciance, and what started out as a low-budget children's programme has become the longest running
science fiction television series of all time.
