Star Trek “Mirror, Mirror” Episode (original Mirror Universe episode in old series) Continued
n interesting take on the Star Trek (Old Series) episode “Mirror, Mirror”. It looked like a poor recreation of the original episode at first, but then took a 1960’s-style approach to continuing the story that proved interesting. Not sure, but it’s also possible the son or grandson of James Doohan (who played Lt. Cmdr. Montgomery Scott in the original episode) starred as “Scotty” herein.
UPDATE: Stargate Universe Petition Needs More Support
n May 7th, I published an article asking for your support with a petition to resurrect the Stargate Universe television series. Support has been escalating, but too gradually. As of tonight, the series will not get the 100,000 signatures necessary before production deadlines necessary for next season (the goal will not be achieved until March 12, 2014).
So get your signatures in ASAP!!!
Help Bring Stargate: Universe Back!
ring back SG:U to the Internet by signing this Netflix petition (see link). Unlike many Internet-based petitions, this one looks like it’s being taken seriously….so if you (like me) want Stargate back – access the SG:U petition on change.org and let your voice be heard! (Do it anyway for me – ‘cuz there’s a huuuuge vacuum in sci-fi entertainment these days and it will make life suck a lot less for me and a pile of other people!
