I first saw the episode of Outer Limits called " The Starcrossed " (from 1999) a few weeks ago and I burned it on a DVD. Has anyone here ever seen it? Tell me that episode isn't one of the greatest 45 minutes of television ever!

He plays Michael Ryan, owner of the Heaven coffee house...the whole theme of the show is a futuristic sort of Casablanca.....very similar themes and actions.

Nathan is so awesome in this I can't even begin to describe. You can see in this episode all his amazing talent...his deep intense stares, his passion, his unique humor...honestly I felt like I was watching a pre-quel to Firefly! Not to mention this episode is hot!!! Nathan beds his former lover and we see a side shot of his leg ...again with that weird black tatoo that we saw in Trash. I have now watched this 6 times...gets better every time! Any comments?

Hey ShinyEd....I was also up at 5:00 am a few weeks ago and watched The Starcrossed episode of Outer Limits. I think you hit the nail squarely on the head 'cause the episode WAS awesome and Nathan's performance was award-worthy!

If you remember at the end he and his Russian ally decide to get back into the fight & join up with the NATO resistance fighters nearby....a few different words and themes and voila...we have the origins of the Browncoats war against the Alliance. And what about the Girl...her songs...they blew me away! She is a real pro,,,sings like a bird!...and Yes...Very hot!!!

Nobody posted 'cos they had to run right out to find this episode in one form or other.

Now they are recovering from watching. Then they will watch again. Then -- lather, rinse, repeat. Give 'em a day or two to break the cycle.

Heh.
In truth, Nathan Appreciators know all about this
appearance and have gone so far as to post caps on their thread at the gossi board.

Yum.

I saw Starcrossed in November, and was blown away as well! The guy has screen presence, and this was before Firefly!! Just wish I thought about taping it (yes I still have blank VHS tapes and a VCR!). Does anyone know when it will be on SciFi again?

Watching the episode again and again.

I really didn't like the girl-two songs were two too many IMHO-wanted lots more Nathan!

I'm a big fan of the Outer Limits, and surprised that I never saw that ep before. I have found that as soon as you're a fan of somebody, you see them everywhere. Or like when you learn a new word or fact. Like I heard this thing about Supreme Court Justice Earl Warren the other day and then he was the Final Jeopardy answer like two days later. And before I'd barely heard of him. Good looking, ShinyEd.

Aw damnit! How did I miss this?!?

I've been dying to see that episode! It wasn't one of the ones they released on DVD, believe me, I looked. I totally suck. I hate myself for missing it.

Is there anyway I could persuade you to do me a copy????? I have searched high and low for this, and not been able to find it!

Mmmm of course the ep is not included in any of the DVD collections, so the only solution I see is to download it from Internet.

I found it on:

I would like to remember that Adam too did an ep in 1998 titled "Phobos Rising".
