First V, now Alien Nation. Talk about a flash-back to my childhood!
Will you be changing your name to SyFyChick? Just curious. lol
Ugh. No way! I’m not trying to distance myself from science fiction. They’ve done enough of that with airing wrestling. It’s become such a joke, I’m actually glad they are changing they’re name if they aren’t going to stick with the genre.
