I know this is true. You just seemed to be one of the most vocal. From what Jack
wrote, a lot of people objected. He said (I believe) that the producers "caved"
under pressure - so there had to be more than just one person complaining.
Did you ever write into the show letting them know your feelings?
That's something I always mean to get around to, but never do.
I am looking forward to the season finale's second part tonight. Although I bet
we're left hanging somehow. (here's a nother reason to hate Dallas - "who shot
JR" really made everyone step up the series cliff-hangers.

thank god Connor McLeod is the lead, and not Duncan - that's something that
confused me at first. I just assumed they got another actor for the series (and
was I glad, I like Adrian Paul much better than Christopher Lambert) although I
do have to admit he (Lambert) grows on me.
So if you can get over the longing for Adrian Paul, and take the movie on it's
own terms (which in III do NOT tie into the series "real world" at all) it's
quite an interesting movie.
A lot of special effects, and an interesting storyline that really emphasizes an
immortal's gaining another's powers once they kill them.
I'll write you more, cause I'm out of on-line time.

She did. She was getting very tired of the heavy-duty prosthetics,
and wanted to go through less time in the makeup chair. She also
didn't want her hair hidden underneath a bone-crest. Hence, the
change.
The Chrysalis was a pre-planned part of the arc, it was the
implementation that got changed, partly at Mira's request.

I don't get this Frank. You just contradicted yourself. Troi *is*
a Starfleet officer. Yet you feel the same way about her as Talia?
And you would prefer it if Talia were an EA officer? That paragraph
doesn't add up.

PC>> I just saw the episode "all about eve" - do you know if
PC>> that was the final episode?
Strangely enough, it wasn't. The episode last week was a new one, but one
that was out of continuity order. It explained how Alonzo came to terms with
his being "grounded" and how they acquired the geo-lock that caused all kinds of
problems in the hands of Morgan Martin.
PC>> Also, was Riley played by a different actor in this episode
PC>> than in the past ones?
Nope, Riley or Reilly was played by the same actor who had portrayed him
before. The character just added a moustache, and a bit more hair, that's all!
GD> And I wonder if Devin is really dead?
Devon Adair isn't dead. We know this for two reasons. First, she is still
alive some sixteen years later. Remember the episode where we meet the adult
Uly? :) Secondly, she was placed in coldsleep while they hopefully figured out
what was killing her. Given that she will suffer coldsleep sickness or whatever
it was called when she emerges, there will be all kinds of new problems facing
her and her friends at that time.
