according to the WKBD/UPN50 website, Enterprise debuts on September 26 (not the 23rd, as Dark Horizons says), and the season premieres of Buffy and Roswell are October 9 and 16, respectively. [huggles to Dark Horizons for pointing me in that direction. eww. i can't believe i wrote the word 'huggles.']

in other news: The Cartoon Network hopes to reel in adults with Space Ghost, Erik Estrada. is anyone else saying, "Eric Estrada!! oh boy!! i gotta watch!"? didn't think so. (but yes, i am saying "Space Ghost? all right! i gotta watch!")

today's an ampersand kind of day. good for dividing long posts. and i like ampersands. those wheel-chaired people characters they use on Handicapped Parking signs make me think of ampersands.

everyone's talking about cans of Godzilla Meat being sold in Japan. irradiated reptile meat may be tastey, but you'd think it be a little gamy.

"People can eat Godzilla and become energetic and powerful." yes they can, right up until the radiation sickness kicks in. but once your hair falls out and the vomiting, diarrhea, ulceration of the alimentary canal and sloughing of the skin begin, isn't it great to know that Godzilla Meat has "dreams mixed in with fun."

how did they get Godzilla to give up his flesh? maybe this Kirk vs. Godzilla showdown has the answers.

the Saturn Award winners were announced yesterday. you can get a quick rundown of the winners here. Buffy won for the Network Television Series catagory and James Marsters won for the Supporting Actor on Television catagory.

Elizabeth Rohm says she was initially wary of taking the Kate role in Angel.

some fans of Voyager are unwilling to accept the end of the tv series, so they're creating their own stories and putting them online. this is reported as news, and the fans do this because the series ended so suddenly and without warning, because no one has ever written fan fic before, and because Parmamount (via Simon & Schuster, who has an entire subdivision devoted to Star Trek media, the whole thing being one big incestuous Viacom orgy) hasn't thought to publish Voyager-based novels.

and finally, HRC has called for a boycott against ExxonMobile. i guess this means no more Masterpiece Theatre.
