Thanks for the review of Strange Detractors!

A note to Chris: the new miniseries is called Gone and Back, not Gone and Back Again. :)

Thanks for the clarification Keith.

Between schedule conflicts and technical challenges this episode just didn't seem like it wanted to get published.   :D

 Great episode , Kevin . Thumbsup with your doing this by yourself . You are very brave  ;)  . I hope Lindyrae is able to solve her 'puter problem .

 Loving the commentary of " Strange Detractors " comic book . I reckon this is the wave of the future . Now that we have so many of the comic books out ,  ( another thumbsup .  " Good on ya ! " ) I love that article . I was reading my copy of this comic book - Strange Detractors . Yep , I was following along , and going " Yep , that happened , and so did that .  "  :D This is just great !  I agree with the article about how krad is handling the characters . Thumbsup .

...was great hearing the new listener's feedback about why he loves Farscape so much and how he's enjoying not only watching Farscape for the first time but that he's delving into the Scapecast and forums to get so much more out of the show than he would have by just only watching

...really appreciate Chris's review on the comics, not only for keeping us Scapers up to date on our favorite charactors but also i found hearing his honest opinions regarding not only the story but the drawings and feel overall something that was very interesting to listen to...and though i always enjoyed listening to Wendy telling us the news, i (grudgingly  ;D) thought Chris did a good job and will look forward to his future segments

...the IT Crowd dvd that Brent reccommended sounds awfully funny and i will defiantly add it to my future tv watching list

...grrrrr  >:(  ...  i thought i finally got a trivia question...i could have sworn the lines were from the Into the Lion's Den trilogy !!! ...but nooooo !!!  ...wrong again  :-[

...thanks for going at it alone Kevin...the show was good but just wasn't the same without the banter between you and Lindy...you guys just make the show shine  :)
