Yes, but what were the ratings for Mega Shark vs. Giant Octopus and how sharp was the half-hour drop-off once everyone realized it sucked?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Maybe people didn't turn it off when they realized it sucked. Maybe they watched it with horrid fascination, or MST3K'd it. Maybe some people, like me, tuned in after being told how much it sucked, just to see for themselves.

All is well that ends in pizza.
I would watch it on MST3K, especially with the classic cast and writers.
He worked in a satellite loading bay
Just polishing switches, to pay his way
He did his job well with a cheerful face
But his bosses didn't like him so they shot him into space

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Defying Gravity better have beta explain why it needs this bunch of misfits together before the series goes off the air or I'll be mightily frustrated. Also Ted needs to tell people about Beta. Too many other hallucinations.
Did my attention slip during Warehouse 13, or did Myka make a quartz detector out of a walkie talkie? You can do that?

re: Defying Gravity...
how is it you can grow a finger in space, but you cannot grow a uterus?

Maybe you can grow a uterus back but they never bothered because she wouldn't need one anytime soon. Way to go, show, to punish her for having an abortion!

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
the thing that bothers me is that it was all so unnecessary.

W13 -- wait, there's a QUARTZ MINE in FLORIDA?
I mean, only if there's an EVILE QUARTZ ASTEROID that landed there a couple of millenia ago or whatever.

So, you're saying that it was METEOR ROCK that was messing with people on Warehouse 13?
