Spring RTS Engine

See TV needs some good shows. You know some GOOD shows to wash away all them reality T.V shows...So i had this cool idea while making fun of Lost. See, following with my idea that everything is better in space (Like Futurama is the Simpson, but IN SPACE. And Firefly is a western, BUT IN SPACE!). So i realized that Lost would be great...if it was LOST, but IN SPACE. Then I realized they had already done it. But i could do it better...

A cruise liner doing a drive by of Pluto, Neptune and Uranus is hit by a meteor shower. The ship, careening out of control, flies thousands of miles off course and crashes on Jupiter. The thirty odd survivors of the five hundred person crew gather in the ships now derelict hallways. Melting the ice for water and electricity, the passenger and crew begin to fight to stay alive. But they are thousands of miles off course, is the vastness of space.

And they are not alone...


How is that NOT a cool idea for a late night, scary as all hell T.V show?

I don't like TV. I don't watch anything else except the news, FSTV, and shows like Aqua Teen Hunger Force, Family Guy, and Futurama ect. ect.

TV is a bunch of brain dead and unfunny heap now a days, even many news sources...FOX NEWS. But I have found my diamonds in the rough and I love them dearly.

The Daily Show, the Colbert Report, (the rest of comedy central is ussually rubbish) CSPAN, History Channel, adult swim and the movie channels are some of the only decent programs avaliable in my opinion.

Arrested development was great while it was running. south park has the funny/clever factor too.

ps, crashing on jupiter = not good. even if you managed to hit one of the moons the radiation streaming out is quite deadly. you can't send probes too close (annywhere near) or they get fried!

My wife just bought me "Dinosaurs" on DVD (first 2 seasons)... I havn't had a chance to watch it but I remember it being teh awsomes... TV didn't used to suck... new-heart was awsome... even crap like growing pains and family ties was better then most of whats on right now... with the exception of all CSI shows and House.

Thats why I chose Europa. Any good ship would have radiation shelding, so the crew would be safe while they were inside AND you could have creepy aliens crawling around under the ice! Whats not to like?

Also don't say a show is good on cable, because I dont get cable damn it!

I'd say I rack up about 20 minutes of TV a week: 4 minutes of weather on the news, Monday to Friday. I get my Daily Show from here, funny stuff. Other than that, nothing.
Cable TV is a waste of perfectly good time and money.
