So you think a stupid TV show is the cat's whiskers ?

FYI, I did briefly watch 'Lost' purely because it was highly hyped on UK's Channel 4 (which once had a good record for decent drama).

I have barely (never ?) seen such an utterly worthless US programme ever. It's so detached from reality that I wonder if Americans have even the tiniest clue about the world that exists around them.

I guess you don't know what a gasket is ?

You are certainly guilty as charged son.

Dumbfuck. You cannot get the show from a single "middle of a season" episode casual viewing. You needed to BEGIN at the beginning.

Do you actually think you could grasp a deep show like "Lexx" without seeing the first four episodes that constituted the first season?

Same thing, dumbass. You are worthless.

I was building racing motors in the early seventies in my teen years. Likely before you could bray loudly, as you do here, ass.

I did.

I shall never forget the idiotic shots thar showed a jet engine still running when it clearly had no source of fuel.

Chrsit ! Are Americans *REALLY* that stupid that they fall for this crap ? You really are a bunch of dumbnuts.

Frankly "Lost" made me think Americans are such utter fuckwits that we shouldn't ever take them seriously.

After the fifth or sixth time in two months, it gets old having them come back. We're considering DBS but it's taking a while to study the options.

What's odd is that the cable internet service is near flawless.

I'd put it second, or lower, after HDTV. :)

I am definitely _NOT_ a fan of 'Lost'; but don't you suppose that you Brits ought to take a little responsibility since you started it all with 'The Prisoner' (Patrick McGoohan).

IMHO, 'Lexx' may have incorporated some good conceptual science fiction but its embodiment and style left out pretty much anyone over age 21.

You certainly do not know much about gyroscopic inertia.

They spin at around 100k rpm, that's one hell of a gyro mass, and after the crash were considerably slower, but any fuel remnant would auto-ignite as it trickled in from the lines from the temperature of them.

Not 100% realistic, but it was possible.

One of flight 77's engines went right through five sets of wall at the pentagon, just on inertial energy alone.

You're a goddamned retard.

That's why they call it Fiction, dipshit.

The title of this thread is "So what's the truth..."; I encourage anyone who objects to the appalling lack of scientific vetting of television scripts to complain frequently to production companies, sponsors, TV stations, etc. Fiction need not descend to alternate-Earth fantasy to accommodate continuity errors, anachronisms, and fallacies, like the rearranging of the geography of Kansas and Colorado on 'Jericho' (adding mountains to a flat topography, replacing East with West, etc.). In fact I have given up on Jericho as I simply cannot continue to suspend belief on depictions that should have been rendered correctly and would not alter the storyline. Military and Amateur Radio operators complained about the sloppy fist and uncopyable CW during the opening credits and evidently that produced some changes but still the producers don't use the services of a scientific advisor or heed his advice.

Search the web for complaints and errors in 'Jericho', or similar shows, to see that this is a real issue and audiences have more intelligence and less tolerance than the industry acknowledges.

It's

clue

'The Prisoner' was always clearly full-blown escapionist nonsense. Along with the likes of The Avengers. Entertaining but not to be taken seriously ever.

Quite different.

Oh Lord ! Did he say Lexx was to be taken seriously ?

It was a hoot for sure... but *serious*... !!!! ?????

You clearly are a cheap f*ck.

Jet engines with no source of fuel spool down *very* quickly.
