Superstar

Star Trek Today

And the Children Shall Lead
Kirk has adventures in babysitting five kids who don't care that their parents are dead. It turns out the kids are under alien control, so once they cry, the alien melts (of course) and everything goes back to normal.

Today's Movie

Hitch
Will Smith makes an ass of himself and that guy from The King of Queens marries a supermodel or whatever.

The New Star Trek Movie

ILM will be doing the effects. In case you care.

A great page I ran across today

Janeway's plant obsession

Spock vs. Q

Hehehehehe

Today on the X-Files

Brand X
Cigarettes can kill you.

Ugh

This is just sad.

Today on Star Trek

Spock's Brain
No, seriously, that's the episode title. Spock's brain gets stolen. The rest is just dumb. But there is a theory that it's all better if you change "brain" to "dick".

The Enterprise Incident
Kirk and Spock play spy and Spock falls in love with a Romulan. Kirk tries on Vulcan ears. It's a good time.

The Paradise Syndrome
Kirk, Spock, and McCoy wonder how pine trees made it across the galaxy. Wow. What an amazing coincidence...

Today on the X-Files

All Things
Mulder and Scully have sex. Maybe. Or not. Maybe she fell asleep on his couch. But then why does she feel the need to put her shirt back on? Oh, and she had an affair with her med school professor back in the day and now God's speaking to her in a Buddhist temple.

Today on Star Trek

Return to Tomorrow
Damn it Kirk, didn't you learn anything from "The City on the Edge of Forever"? A man from the 20th century ends up on board, and Kirk considers not returning him because he's not gonna do anything important. But his unborn son is. Kirk's not that bright.

The Return of the Archons
You have got to be kidding me. Who knew Sulu was a quick-change artist? For once, Kirk shows some promise by not beaming down to a primitive and unknown planet in his uniform. Nice work, Kirk. Scotty manages to make the impossible sound plausible, McCoy gets brainwashed, Spock wears Andre the Giant's costume from "The Princess Bride" and Chekov isn't in the episode, which is a good thing because he probably would just tell us how Russia invented smashing windows. Oh, and Uhura does nothing remarkable. Again.

Today on Gilmore Girls

Lazy Hazy Crazy Days
Who is Rory dating? And who is Lorelai dating? And is Lorelai is in love with Luke? At least they make up and stop shouting, so yay.

Star Trek Today

Operation: Annihilate!
Mass insanity plauges Deneva, and Kirk's brother and sister-in-law are killed by the beings that cause it. Spock is also infected, but luckily McCoy figures out how to undo the infection before Spock goes insane too. Unluckily, the treatment involves bright light that blinds Spock. McCoy figures out that you only need UV to undo the infection, the population of Deneva is cured, and Spock's eyesight is saved by a convenient Vulcan inner eyelid.

Today on Buffy

A New Man
A neglected Giles gets turned into a Fyarl demon, and has to pay Spike 200 dollars to get anyone to help him out. Spike smashes Giles' car, Buffy stabs Giles by accident, and Ethan Rayne ends up imprisoned in Area 51.

The I in Team
Buffy joins the Initative, and asks so many questions that Professor Walsh tries to kill her. Riley believes that Buffy's dead for about two seconds, but luckily Buffy chooses that moment to call Professor Walsh and tell her that her murder plan sucked. Spike gets shot with a tracer and pays Giles to remove it before the Initiative can find it. And Willow spends the night with Tara... doing what now?
