I don't need to see smart-ass robots, kids or super-smart-PC-correctable fembots being PC correct/funny/cute.

In space, you screw up, you die...and it ain't from laughing at fuzzy, huggable critters. Tribbles, Ewoks and Jar-Jar Bink-ables included.

Tribbles...damn things reminded me of that other little toy that all the little girls wanted...Trolls! Only the trolls had eyes, ears, mouth and no clothes...tribbles were nothing more than pieces of carpet from some hippy-van that Paramount found on their lot during a break in shooting. Ray Bradbury probably headed out back on the lot and during a doobie-break, decided that squeeking pieces of carpet would be fun and funny as well. Go figure...and the clown that played the carpet-bagging fuzzball salesman/smuggler...there was a piece of overacting that brought the bile just up far enough in the back of your throat... And the final line of the episode, that anyone with two brain-cells could see comin' from a galaxy away..."Twas' no tribble at all." *URP!*

Ewoks! Their concept was unbelievable from the get-go! Fuzzy tree-dwellers, in a forest tree-top setting? The humidity would have "nuded" their little bodies of hair, or at least, turned them into stinking piles of matted fur sticking to anything they touched.

Jar-Jar Binks was a puke-fest during his first un-intelligable line in "SW-Return of the Inane" or whatever that name of that episodic tripefest was. When he got his tongue zapped in that racer-pod electron-field, someone should have tied his floppy-earred ass onto one of those racer-pods and used him as ballast to keep the pods stable in turns until his pod would be crashed by some mistake of the driver, then you'd could watch as Jar's flaming tongue and ears slowly extinguished in the backround...

Nope, don't have time for poorly written and acted TV series or movies...I'll spend my money on a good bottle of wine or liquor if I need to get away from reality...I work in TV as it is...too many Jar-Jars in real life to think about...and some of them are understandable...and that is a problem in itself.
