I guess since this is a May sweeps mini-series, it's supposed to be big. But how can NBC advertise it as having an all-star cast if the only two names they mention in the commercial are Leelee Sobieski and Sean Astin? The only other person of (present) note in the cast is Timothy Dalton.

because the term "all-star" is subjective

"Band of losers" would really cut into the ratings.

On a related question, anyone know the exact date when this mini-series will be shown?

They're "TV stars" --- just a bit dimmer than regular stars.

No Steve Reeves = no sale.

So how was this? The dvd is coming out this tuesday, is it worth blind buy? Any Clash of Titans like feel to it?

No Kevin Sorbo = no sale

Okay, that cracked me up.
