I'm a Threshold man myself.

You know, all of these invaders-from-space shows are really ticking me off bigtime.

I've been trying to sell a show I came up with called Homecoming featuring a new twist on the alien invasion genre, and I couldn't get anywhere with it last year on account of nobody thinking such a show would be interesting, and now there's a glut of such shows, making it all the more impossible to market my show. It really BITES; those network jerks gave me the brushoff, stole my idea, reworked it in 3 different ways, and now it looks like I'M the unoriginal copycat. man, that irritates me.

Actually, Homecoming is still very, very, very different from any of these other shows, and from any other show ever made. It would rock as a series, and we've even made a roleplaying game based on it which could be a big hit. Since the TV executroids have rejected the show, I guess I'll see about launching it as a game.

Anyway, the moral of the story is this:
Don't trust anybody in a nice suit. He'll stab you in the back every time.
