Starlost: Voyage of Discovery

[Moesly_Armlis]

Here is a blast of TV series from the past for which I have some vague memories.

What if it was the hypnotic voice of the computer that killed all the crew?

Harlan Ellison… I have a few signed books of his. interesting guy.

[Vanamonde]

It was an interesting idea, but poorly executed. Ellison exercised his writer's standard contract clause and insisted they substitute the false name "Cordwainer Bird" as author, to indicate that he was 'giving the bird' to the show.

Poorly executed is an objective opinion. Understanding that some of the people involved were trying their best and I do not want to insult anyone who makes honest mistakes (that is why I love KSP- it is the many failures leading to that splendid awe after a single success). For the same reason I laugh at my own failures I enjoy this train wreck of a show.

I was trying to seriously follow the show's story. However, after watching the first four episodes the hilarity of the show as seen through the eyes of MST3k fan had me busting out loud laughing. One thing is for sure; I plan on watching more.

Ellison exercised his writer's standard contract clause and insisted they substitute the false name "Cordwainer Bird" as author, to indicate that he was 'giving the bird' to the show.

I laughed after reading that and thought why hide behind a false name. I vow to change my legal name to MoselyArmlis. Then I am burying it!
