Screen Actor Guild rules demand that if the actor is in a certain number of
episodes (I think it is 12, but am probably wrong), they must be pictured in
the opening credits.

Well... he *IS*. Don't get me wrong, I've known Harlan for a long time, but
a bad attitude is about the best you'll ever expect to get from him. Sheesh,
you want to see bad, try to see him at a SF convention sometime. He sits
around and badmouths the con, the people, his fans, you name it and then
volunteers to come again next year.

Jesus H. Christ, are we back to THIS argument again??? Get this

It's one with a few variations in focus, but it IS a military! Nor does
it "lack discipline" or "security procedures". Anybody who thinks that
simply hasn't been paying attention.

You obviously know nothing about the military, then, because
everything you just described is an attribute of a MILITARY
ORGANIZATION. If it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck, odds are,
it's a duck. (BTW, I am a Navy wife so I have some basis for
comparison.)

You didn't miss part 2;) Part 2 won't be on till next season. This past
Friday's episode was a repeat (the one where a ghost tried to solve its own
murder).

It does sound good... and it better be VERY good if they want to
appease me at this point. They canned ALIEN NATION (a GREAT SF show) way
back when it was still a fledgling network, now they cancel two more good
SF shows. NOT good.
