Both are too skinny and too flat for my tastes...so they need to stick to the
tech...
Plus that whole grungy thing with the one character added into the whole too
skinny too flat just starts to repulse... The cleaned up for COMDEX scene was a
vast improvement, but too skinny too flat.
The addition of AnnaBeth Gish helps...although she seems to be done....

I've worked on all sorts of stuff from PDP8e various other IBM & DEC big
iron... I was part of a group that pretty much had the run of ALCOA's IT
department and we had all kinds of fun... :)
And from there forward to the various PC boxes of today... Other than crapple,
never touched it much, thought the II was hype then, and it just continued.
DW> Sorry to hear that. I really liked that series.
I don't know that it is officially dead.. but I know there was a good deal of
work being done to get it go forward.

It got billed as an "Office" like show, and that was pretty much the killer for
me... I checked it out, seemed to fit in to that whole "office"-y thing.. so
bye bye... I don't think it fit to WKRP standards, as that would be an
improvement! Sad that show is trapped in royalty BS hell now... :( :(
