Has anyone seen this show?

Since last week I'm watching this TV series on cable channel. This...is...AMAZING show and I was stunned! It looks like "LOST" + "Flashforward".

The Event is an emotional, high-octane conspiracy thriller. Sean Walker is a man who investigates the mysterious disappearance of his fiance, Leila, and begins to expose the biggest cover-up in U.S. history.

I want to know about this show, so I checked this on imdb, but I found this show has been cancelled! Why?!?!

Not sure if this has been posted before, but I came across this on the series of tubes that make up the interwebs. Someone at Cracked.com answers some tough questions about Repairman Jack.

Not really, but from another movie so bad it was good. This is one of my favorite bad films...this and Chopping Mall were another bunch of movies I rented repeatedly from the video store.

So I've got an amazon gift card that I'll be purchasing The Dark At The End With and wanted to make sure I was contributing toward it getting on the bestseller list so when should I place my order?

I was reading about this in Aftershock & Others and I remember playing this on SciFi Channel's Seeing Ear Theater site that shut down around 2007.

It was a pretty good story and interesting interactive audiobook. I wonder what happened to all the files they had on their site. It would be neat to get the rights to it and post it somewhere, but I hear that Sci-Fi likes money, a lot of it.

Did anyone else play this back in the day?

Did anyone ever buy The Keep board game. I've been looking for a used copy. Haven't found one yet.

I'm currently watching this series through for the third time, and it struck me that it gets better with rewatching, a rare thing for TV comedy. There's a ton of stuff they sneak in there that you can't possibly catch without multiple viewings. They will, for example, make jokes about things that haven't happened yet on the show, so it's about ten times funnier when you catch it the second or third time around. The show also has dozens of sight gags that you would never notice until you've watched it at least a few times.

I would say the downfall of this series (besides Fox shuffling it around and putting it on random hiatus, because Fox is sucky) was the fact that the humor builds throughout the series, so that each episode is ten times funnier if you've seen the one before it. A casual viewer would probably not find it very funny at all because you really, really need to pay attention and watch the episodes in order. This is de rigeur with continuing dramas, but not so much with comedy.

I honestly think this is one of the smartest TV shows ever produced. It's a shame it didn't last a little longer.

We all know that Nightworld is being revamped and Jack will play a larger part in the endgame. This raises the question:

How should the novel be described on the cover?

Back in 1996, prior to the creation of http://www.repairmanjack.com fans would visit a site put together by Kade Cole.

Compared to today's website there isn't much but at the time it was the first and only site dedicated and endorsed by Paul.

For grins and giggles you should click on the "Chat Transcript" link and see one of the first chat sessions Paul participated in. There is nothing that you haven't read before, but for many folks, the chat session was the first time they were able to interact with FPW.

This was 15 years ago, I remember watching the chatroom on AOL thinking it was the neatest thing in the world. I was too terrified to participate and it would be another 2 years before I spoke my first words to Lisa, Marc, Susan and many others including FPW.

The links to the sections are on the bottom of the main page. Enjoy this piece of FPW history.
