We&#39;ve gotten through the 8 day candle thing with Chanukah, just polished off Christmas, and now, for some, it&#39;s Kwanza. Are we ready for New Year&#39;s Eve yet? <IMG SRC="http://www.electric-ent.com/bbs/clipart/happy.gif" ALT=":&#41;"> <BR> <BR>December was a great month for catching The Visitor on the Sci Fi Channel with a marathon and Sunday showings. Unfortunately, I see no listings for January. A &#34;cableless&#34; fan requested help seeing the entire series - so I spent time watching at least portions of all 13 episodes in the process. That&#39;s a nice end of the year rite of passage for a Visitor fan. <BR> <BR>When Adam pulled Faraday out of his carbon monoxide ridden garage, he muttered, &#34;Not just yet, Mr. Faraday.&#34; Hopefully, we can say the same about the eventual end of The Visitor. <BR> <BR>Enjoy your tapes.

it&#39;s okay. When I worked for the Post Office, I had to work Christmas day and New Years.

And what exactly did you DO on those days? Heaven knows they sure don&#39;t deliver them days. &#62;:-P

I did the same thing I did every day I worked for the post orifice -- I processed images of mail that the computers couldn&#39;t read the handwriting on.

Check your spelling Fungii, or is that on purpose? ;-&#41; no need to reply...

Sunday had a hole in it without the 10 AM showing of &#34;The Visitor&#34;. I&#39;ve emailed the Sci-Fi channel after every showing, both weekly and the marathons. I&#39;m going to keep on doing this in hopes that they will bring it back again. After all, they show repeats of other series - a lot of them not nearly the quality of &#34;The Visitor&#34; so I&#39;m just going to keep on begging them for more of &#34;The Visitor&#34; reruns. <BR> <BR>Happy New Year everyone! <BR> <BR>Emma

1&#93; The scifi channel shows the Visitor on a more or less regular basis. It does NOT show Godzilla regularly &#40;and in fact, nearly dropped the big G completely a couple of years ago, in favor of &#34;Field of Dreams&#34; and the like... duh&#41; <BR> <BR>2&#93; Godzilla has a bigger fan following than the Visitor :&#93;

I liked Field of Dreams. I have been watching the morning listing scifi and have been a little disapponted not to see The Visitor lately, but then again I haven&#39;t seen The Patriot lately either. Who can I email?

Field of Dreams is not SciFi. It&#39;s just evil of Scifi to consider dropping Godzilla altogether &#40;which they almost did&#41;, which IS scifi, in favor of Field of Dreams, which is certainly &#42;NOT&#42; scifi... <BR> <BR>Didn&#39;t say it was a bad movie though, just being misclassed by the SF channel...

I suppose &#34;Field of Dreams&#34; has a bit of a fantasy element, which is why they stuck it in there. I really liked it, but I would agree that it wouldn&#39;t be a proper Sci-fi replacement for &#34;Godzilla&#34;. I noticed Sci-fi showing the film &#34;Fluke&#34; which was really good too, but not exactly what you would classify as their standard fare!

Being the resident hater of all things SciFi Channel-You all know the reasons why, all I can say is, UPN is showing interest in Invisible Man. <BR> <BR>Please visit-<A HREF="http://home.att.net/~skates/SaveIMAN.htm" TARGET="_top">http://home.att.net/~skates/SaveIMAN.htm</A> for more info. <BR> <BR>Thanks! <BR> <BR>Chris <BR>The FOX plant <BR> <BR>PS-I have more SF DVD&#39;s than the SFC dares to show-heck, at least Universal owns it again, maybe they can do something over in the television division.

Hell, if I had my way, Sci-fi would play at least one Visitor episode daily... in PRIME TIME! LOL ;o&#41;
