http://tinyurl.com/2fykj3 NBC network is turning to science fiction this fall in a bid to lift ratings.
http://www.boston.com/news/globe/ideas/articles/2007/05/13/pulp_affection/ When asked recently by a Fox News interviewer to name his favorite novel, Mitt Romney's answer, the 1982 science-fiction epic "Battlefield Earth" ... science fiction has definitely replaced the western, and is creeping up on cop shows as far as changing audience taste in cultural entertainment. what i like about this trend is it is exposing audience to futuristic concepts like space travel, genetic modification, life extension, terra forming and human/computer interface, sometimes even in a humanistic context. ____________________________________________________________________________________Sick sense of humor?
