Daily Birthdays and Events in Sci-Fi, Comics and related areas

December 13, 2011

Plastic Man, Brick Bradford, Mister Magoo's Christmas Carol, Veronica, Starcrash, Rock-A-Doodle, The Phantom Planet, Circuitry Man, Star Trek Nemesis.

"Well..... Here I am", is the final words in the final episode of Firelfy which ended today in 2002. The episode was "Objects in Space" and in my mind was in my top two of the 14 shows. I liked the existentialism in the episode and Richard Brooks' acting. Most will remember Richard as having appeared as Paul Robinette in the first 3 seasons of Law & Order.


Enjoy !!!
