i WAS watching the 80's show War of the Worlds... but got stopped at episode 19. They then took that and Highlander off the air. I REALLY wanted to see the episode with the 2nd alien race. i recall that alien being extremely poorly acted / directed, though the implications would have made for a great season 2.
My husband and I are watching Farscape (first time for us, only on disc two). We have also been watching Adam 12. That really takes me back!
