One that gets me is Ladyhawke, it would be in my top 20 as a totally enjoyable little fantasy if not for the horribly uneven SCORE! The sometimes Parsons- sometimes North score almost makes it unwatchable. But I do watch it...with the sound real low. A shame.
Anyone got a love/hate relationship with a show or movie similar to my sad story?

Okay, I'm embarassed to admit it, but I have one that definately fits this category. Besides, it stars one of our BDH. Cleopatra 2525. I hated parts of it like the opening theme, the costumes, the set design, the general cheesiness. But I loved parts of it, notably the arc story and some of the concepts. I used to think it was written by two people: one a guy who hung out in stripper bars all day and then showed up drunk to pitch an idea, and the other a mousy scifi fan very well versed in the genre. Loved where the show was going.
Yeah, yeah, I know. I'm probably doing Gina Torres a dis-service by mentioning it.

Yeah, I used to watch that thinkin' "this is almost really good...but..."
Gina and Victoria were the real reasons I watched.
Speaking of Ms. Pratt, Mutant X was another I really wanted to like, but just couldn't seem to get into it...

"Charmed" has everything you need to make a REALLY good show. . .I mean WHEDON good. . .but something just isn't quite right, and I can't put my finger on it.
Maybe it's the 'banter' is too contrived. . .maybe it's something about the way the characters are developed. . .I can't figure it out.
I like it. . .I do. . .but there's something that keeps me from being able to LOVE it.

It's utter tripe?

See. . .
Here's my problem.
We're all die-hard fans of a show that featured a high-school cheerleader-type who fought vampires and demons with kung-fu while trying to figure out who to take to the prom, etc. etc. etc. . .
But "Charmed" is tripe?
I think that's a bit unreasonable.

Static, I'm with you on Charmed, if it's on I'll watch and really enjoy it, but I don't hunt it down.

In Cleopatra 2525, the third girl, Jennifer Sky, appeared on Buffy in the show that had Xander acting like a hyena: "The Pack," ep. 1.6. That makes two out of three of them within the Whedon-verse.
Show I'd like to see is "She Spies" with Carlos Jacott returned, and the other guy GONE.

AI - Artifical Inteligence
It would be a great movie - a timeless classic for the ages if only the movie faded to black and went to credits when little Haley is sittin' in the jet/sub thing and that crap with the aliens never happened.
It would be an incredible film, as it stands - it's really not.
