Correct, thanks! I had Sarah Connor Chronicles on the brain from the earlier question. :lol:

I first thought of Torchwood then decided it was too obvious. I then thought of Misfits but wasn't really sure it was sci-fi because I've never seen it.

Well done sheep. I had serious doubts Harlan Ellison would get any votes. He isn't so mainstream famous anymore, but sci-fi fan worth their salt should know him (as the writer of what are widely considered to be the best episodes of Star Trek and The Outer Limits).

That's why I didn't slam him.

I chose him because of one episode of Star Trek.

I think that if any of those people could have named the star of the show, they would have. A lot of these questions are too niche for casual fans, and that's why the game had trouble attracting players.

I've only seen one episode, but "John Crichton" does sound familiar now that I see it.

Fuck me ... Ray Bradbury. This is the problem with these games. A fuck-all wank-off answer for a show I have never seen nets me -2 while all of my uniques in reverses only get me -1.

The show specific questions have been very niche. I have never watched Fascape, Lexx, or Futurama which were all specific questions. Still enough to have fun with though!
