What if it’s good?

We’re back with yet another episode of the podcast. I totally forgot that we were going to talk about Fallout 3, so I lost track of time and the show is, as a result, a bit long. We talk about dead shows (Prison Break, Mad TV, Lipstick Jungle, My Own Worst Enemy), moved shows (Life on Mars), and new shows (a gay superhero on Showtime). Then we argue about Fallout 3 for a bit, a game which I may have built up a little too much for Jose, who hasn’t yet seen the light.

We end with yet another discussion of Star Trek, with the trailer just having hit the mainstream today (go here to check it out) and a recent screening of 20 minutes of footage, complete with actual dialogue, that screened last week to press in the UK. Whereas the trailer was exciting, with lasers and phasers and barrel rolls, the scenes as described are less so. Kirk gets a wacky virus! Scotty is a loon! Jar-Jar gets farted on by a Wampa! I really wish this thing were coming out at Christmas as they’d originally planned, because six more months of speculation and over-analysis is going to drive me mad.
