5 stars (2005)

pv+usenet...

3.5. Why do I like this dumb show so much? *

0-1 stars (1933)

Grey Wolf...

3.5 stars
Highs:
Revenge of the Nerds! Miles gave the bully something to remember him
by!
Mr. Lee's shocking lack of parentage!
Savannah was in this episode and she stuck by her brother!

Jorabi...

Did anyone notice that she called her boyfriend "asshole" and
it was dubbed over with "buttwipe"? What, do they use some
dialog that's OK in other countries or pay-cable?

ANIM8Rfsk...

Yeah, although I thought she probably said 'asswipe' and they just swapped
out 'ass' for 'butt'

Russell Watson...

That was my take as well, because the "wipe" part synched with her
lips while "butt" did not.

'97 FLSTF

Miles' dad takes one for the team!
Laura's son is actually likeable. (When he tells his dad no, he
didn't want to go inside, I actually felt sorry for the kid.)

Lows (Just about everything else):
Rich is able to sneak into an operable high-tech facility.
The nerdy science guys just ignore the plainclothes man walking
around?

bob smith...

Even better, they seemed to be casually disinterested that he was being
*chased* by the security guards! So bizarre......

Rich is able to out-wrestle a cold-blooded gov't agent?
Rich is going to cold-blooded whack Mr. Lee?
Rich gets from Palo Alto, CA to North Carolina real fast by driving
cross country?

Overall, the show was enjoyable again...

bdbryant...

3.0, same sentiment.

Better than usual tonight.

David B...

4.25. Laura's ex husband = dickface. Rich = violent psycho out of
control. Savannah = cool sister standing up for brother. Miles = kicking
bully ass. Noah's Ark. End of the world? Tsunami wiping out Puerto Rico.
It's coming to the US East coast. Fun episode. Spielberg plus disaster

BTR1701...

If they're storing samples of the world's wildlife in order to avoid a
massive inundation, wouldn't it be smarter to locate their storage
facility AWAY from the coast (like maybe Kansas or South Dakota) instead
of in North Carolina?

movies plus monster movies = Surface. Loads of cliches, kinda dumb but
mainly fun.

Dave...

3.0 Totally lame and annoying but still the only thing I watched that
evening.

Ian J. Ball...

This was a "goodie":

4.25

Yeah, it was totally over-the-top. But it kept me interested again,
which the past few weeks haven't.

Also, we're starting to see the outlines of the "conspiracy": obviously
Hat Scientist Guy figured out that a "catastrophe" was coming, and so
created the "Nim" creatures and the "Noah's Arc" to either ameliorate
the "catastrophe" and/or to help speed up the recovery afterwards...

Maureen Goldman...

Perhaps the critters were attempting to escape to safety rather than
being responsible for the seismic event.

4.8 for me.

cloud dreamer...

4.0 (2000 & 2004)
