'bolletjes' is Dutch slang for cocaine, etc. and is used in reference to drug smugglers( the ones who swallow bags). I haven't heard anything about it here, but I'll keep my eyes and ears open for it. Meta Yahoo!

[scifinoir2] Re: Anybody Remember This Scifi Series
No I found it on Imdb. It was called Otherworld --- In scifinoir2@yahoogroups.com, Keith Johnson [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Whenever I've talked about the bad scifi of the '70s and '80s--that period between the old Star Trek and the Next Generation when there was a *lot* of scifi crap on TV--this is always one of the shows I've mentioned. Hard Time on Planet Earth was horrible, cheesy, unoriginal, stupid. I watched maybe two eps--assuming they made that many! It died a quick death. Wasn't the star the bad karate instructor from the Karate Kid movies? It was shows like that, and Buck Rogers in the 25th Century, which i liked at first but which got stupider as time went on, that made me start to doubt TV scifi. Remember that bad scifi show with Hulk Hogan? No? Lucky you! I actually got to the point where I stopped watching many scifi premieres, either for fear they'd suck badly, or for fear that they'd be good and cancelled by stupid network execs. Thus, I actually didn't watch the premiere of the X-Files, Wolf, or Space: Above and Beyond. It was quality shows like that, along with TNG and B5, that slowly got me out of that fear and distrust, and start loving TV scifi again. As for that family, sounds very familar. Are you talking about The Fantastic Journey from 1977? I believe there was a family sent through a portal in the Bermuda Triangle. They met a guy who was I believe a human from the future, named Varian, who became their friend and guide of sorts. Here's a plot summary: http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0075503/plotsummary A scientific expedition in the Atlantic Ocean becomes lost in the Bermuda Triangle and washes up on an uncharted island. They meet up with travelers from other times, planets and dimensions who have also become trapped, and together they slide through portals from one dimension to the next hoping to find the one that leads home. -Original Message- From: scifinoir2@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Amanda Sent: Tuesday, February 28, 2006 23:03 To: scifinoir2@yahoogroups.com Subject: [scifinoir2] Anybody Remember This Scifi Series http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0096606/ blast from the past.

[scifinoir2] Re: Anybody Remember This Scifi Series
I remember The Fantastic Journey, but after I got older I got eps from that show, Buck Rogers, Battlestar Galactica mixed up. I mean a lot of them resembled each other so much.lol It's funny to see how much the networks have changed in copying each other. Yahoo!
