Stargate 200

I love it but I think that the quote they used from Asimov was just brill and sums up why science fiction as important today as it was in the day. Also the Farscape riff had me on the floor. Does anyone know who did the marionettes? Again the credits were too small to see.

Yeah, I think that's my favorite, too. I was telling the person I was watching it with, "The sad part is, that would probably work."

And then I mentioned the new Star Trek movie and watched her jaw drop from disbelief.

Peter is alternating between giggling and saying "I told you so" about the new film. He predicted that this was going to be the way they would go next after the last feature.

I clapped after that quote. It was very well done to put it right there.

I have to admit, although I like puppets, marionettes freak me the heck out, so I felt that scene was entirely too long. It looked similar to those recent commercials and that marionette movie I avoided like the plague. "World Patrol" or something?

Team America: World Police which was done by Parker and Stone (better known for South Park) which next to Avenue Q had one of the most explicit puppet sex scene I have ever seen.

I loved how the puppet sequence ended. I was howling with laughter.

The Farscape part had me on the floor, too!

Me too. I want to ask someone up there if the costumes were made for the episode or did they borrow from Henson since both Claudia Black and Ben Bower were on both.
