Threshold: Pilot

Yes, the pilot episode of Brannon Braga's post-Star Trek series, Threshold. You've probably heard about it, but have you actually seen it? No? Then prepare to be filled with... something. Aliens and mutants threaten and all that stands in their way is a quasi-fascist government project called Threshold. Enjoy!

X-Files: Squeeze

What better X-Files episode to make Christmas extremely creepy than Squeeze, where in a mutant serial killer is capable of squeezing through tight spaces. One of them is, yes, a chimney. Remember children: He knows when you are sleeping, he knows when you're awake...

Battlestar Galactica: 33

We return to Battlestar Galactica to check out how the fleet has been doing since Adama's speech about Earth. At the moment, they're being chased by the Cylons, who attack them every 33 minutes, which because it's taking longer than half an hour means the attack is four dollars off.

X-Files: Deep Throat

Our next X-Files episode, titled "Deep Throat" after the character in the show named "Deep Throat" in reference to the real information named "Deep Throat" whose name was taken from a porn film. That porn film was called "Nixon Is Screwed." Oh, it's got some ufology stuff in it. The X-Files episode, not the porn movie.
