The Way It Wuz, February 4, 2000

From: Blinker

Hi there. TWIW is a daily feature which recaps the previous day's BBoard events using some really, really awful poetry. I'm your host, Blinker J. Weasel!

- THE GOOD -
So Fish-Bone is planning a game...
With 8-bit heroics and foes.
The concept's no more than a skip and a jump...
From being called "Super Jerry-O' Bros!"

(Hunter? S? Someone gimme a Charlie-as-a-plumber joke, quick!)

- THE BAD -
TheUnstuck inquired about Seer,
As presented last summer by Gwam.
It may not have been the most pleasant of eps...
But it sure would beat up tonight's bomb! Ecch!

- THE UGLY -
hakavonn wanted a listing,
Of every last Sliders-y glitch!
To my mind, the biggest mistake ever made...
Was S3, when they hired that 7:-# !

- THE WHO -
jerry_o_ wonders what Tormé might think,
If presented with "Seer." Hm, well...
I think he'd suggest
That we cast our minds back
To early S2... "RUN LIKE HELL!!!!!!"

- THE BUMMED-OUT -
Most of us know the Informant,
As one cool, happening dude.
Society MUST be screwed up in extremis,
To put him in THIS kinda mood!

- THE MUSICAL INTERLUDE -

For the benefit of Mr. K,
There will be a show today,
On Western World.

The Mallorys will dance and sing,
While Rembrandt Brown jumps through a ring,
Of talking fire.

Mr. K assures the public
Maggie Beckett's singing
Is second to none.

And tonight,
Pants that are Tight
Are topping the billllll......

- THE OUTRAGEOUS! -
Season_5_Liker's been thinking...
What if the movie should flop?
It might, if the tickets cost more than J12's
Proposal for kit timer props!
(Geez! I could buy a HOUSE for one o' those things!!)

- THE HELLUVATOUGH! -
We all know that Donner is cool...
And his Mr. T comics rule!
As for Exec's moans
About errant "time zones,"
The phrase is "I pity da foo'!"

- THE MUCH COOLER-LOOKING -
Pray BTTF.com doesn't discover
VirtualD's rad new look...
Or faster than you can say "That's Ed the Sock,"
They'll be suin' the poor friggin' mook! 7:-P

- THE OMIGOSH, JUMPING UP AND DOWN WITH DELIGHT! -
Will Cleavant be hitting the BBoard??
Well, that's the impression I got...
He said he'd address us,
But one issue stands...
Will Webster dub him "RemmyBot"?

["I'm starting to address the chat page [on scifi.com] because there's so much coming in. I've got to tell you, it's a joy to be with fans who carry on with a show because they enjoy what they're seeing every week." - CD, at http://www.anotheruniverse.com/tv/interviews/cleavantderricks.html]

- THE HUH? -
QMIII thinks our finale's...
Comparable to that of "Wings."
I don't know the ref, so you're all outta luck...
Yours truly is fresh out of zings!

- BLINKER'S FINAL THOUGHT -
Corduroy and turtlenecks are lame... but a corduroy turtleneck would be *hellacool.*

- Blinker 7:-P
