They are silly.
Wait - are they going to miss KC singing "Hopelessly Devoted"? (Or was that in the pilot?)
If so, I believe that the TV viewing public should rebel.
Perhaps pieing the tv executives. . . or something.
This money, it is too much. You should have some small refund.

Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
Man, Ron Moore has stepped out of the 80s, hasn't he?

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
Set up through Universal Media Studios, "Virtuality" focuses on the 12-member crew of Phaeton, a starship that leaves Earth on a 10-year exploratory mission. The ship has been equipped with state-of-the-art virtual reality modules that let the crew escape their constrained surroundings. Of course, when things start going wrong with the virtual reality, there are serious repercussions.
Soooo.... It's like a Star Trek Holodeck episode stretched out over an entire series?

Guess who wrote many of those wacky Star Trek Holodeck episodes back in the day?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Maybe someone can be in a holodeck simulation of being trapped in a shuttlecraft while having pon farr.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
Well, here's hoping Moore's post-BSG project is less cringe-worthy than David Eick's.
I googled Eick on a lark and apparently he's working on an TV adaptation of Children of Men?? (This sounds familiar. Somebody probably mentioned it upthread and I'd forgotten about it.) But why, so soon after the film? Hmmphf.
Virtuality sounds like a movie premise than one for an ongoing TV series. Well, I guess TV series has been founded on a thinner premise.

Given how often that plotline was re-used, couldn't that be shortened to "It's like a Star Trek series?"
Serously, the holodeck malfunctioned and endangered the lives of all within more often than I had to reset my VCR clock after power outages. The Federation should have made sure that technology fell into the hands of all its enemies as a covert way to sabotage them.

I'll tune in for it. I have enough... I'm not sure faith is the right word, but let's go with it... in Ron Moore to think he can do interesting things with the premise. He certainly exceeded my expectations with BSG.
