The Will Smith trailer: Meh.
And Jericho being un-canceled: What? Why? Because you received 20 tons of nuts from insane fans? I see they’ve only ordered 7 episodes. I’d also order writers who can tell a better story. Sorry, but Jericho has some of the silliest storylines, and Hawkins is bordering on being a super-spy. And (spoilers!) they whacked the best actor of the bunch.
As far as Eddie Olmos goes: I’d say the reason Blade Runner tanked was a lack of unicorns.
Shatner and Takei: No, no I don’t know what you mean…
This free pattern turns out the most accurate Jayne hat out there.
