TERRA NOVA Ratings Not Bronto-Sized!

Posted in Sci-Fi, Fantasy and Horror, Television with tags , , , , , , , , , , , on September 27, 2011 by ghostradioworld

Monday night’s premiere of Fox’s Spielberg produced sci-fi extravaganza “Terra Nova” scored a 3.0 rating, and an 8 share, with the 18-49 demo.  This landed it in third place behind CBS and ABC for the night.  This is likely a huge disappointment to Fox who were expected a major score from this expensive show.  The word “flop” is being bandied about.  An early cancellation looks likely.   Proving, once again, the weakness of sci-fi as a genre on the broadcast networks.

We’ve been a bit underwhelmed by series six of “Doctor Who”.  But the moment below is one of favorites in this or any other year.  It even inspired us to do the photoshoppery above inspired by this poster.   But none of this will make sense to you until you watch the following:

UFOs to Visit “Coronation Street”!

Posted in Television, UFOs with tags , , , , , , , on September 23, 2011 by ghostradioworld

Long running British Soap Opera “Coronation Street” is getting a visit from aliens.  Well, maybe not aliens, but a UFO or two … at least.  Here’s how the Mail reports it:

But as they stare up at the constellations, English teacher Brian thinks he has spotted some UFOs and the pair become so convinced of an alien invasion that they keep their eyes on the skies above.

As he looks through the telescope, Brian says: ‘I’m a respected expert in the field of UFO landings and I’m telling you what we’ve seen with our own eyes are the genuine article.

‘This is our time Julie… beam us up, Scottie!’

However, the excitement proves to be all too much for Julie who declares: ‘This UFO spotting business is really turning me on.’

She then grabs her beau and says: ‘Make love to me Brian, I’ll protect you from little green men.’

But they soon turn back to their ‘discovery’ and soon begin to dub themselves ‘The Mulder and Scully of Weatherfield’ in tribute to the detectives in cult 90s sci-fi TV show ‘The X-Files’.

Hmmm … interesting.
