Howdy,
	Because I PLANNED on being home by 10 and GOT home at 12:00,
I was wondering if any kind soul would be able to make a copy of last
weeks show with Sharon Stone, complete with the rude obscenities in the
beginning. Stereo preferred. The reason I don't want to wait for the
re-run is because SNL has a track record of re-taping or dubbing parts
that didn't work the first time, and I'm wondering if the show will be
altered a bit when it's re-run this summer. I'll pay for shipping and
the tape. Thanx!

There are two: alt.fan.mst3k and just plain alt.mst3k.  The latter gets

Apparently they feel that there are stronger reactions to be had by
invoking images from TV's remote past.

Consider the recent McDonald's commercials featuring characters from old
black & white westerns such as WYATT EARP, THE RIFLEMAN, & RAWHIDE.

Or the commercials a few years ago with reconstructed scenes (a la DEAD MEN
DON'T WEAR PLAID) from LEAVE IT TO BEAVER.  Or the recent commercial (for
Diet Coke?) that incorporates (colorized?) Humphrey Bogart, Jimmy Cagney,
et al.

It appears that nostalgia is considered to be a very powerful ad gimmick.

Wasn't it this week or next week that NBC was thinking of using the pilot
of the "possibly" abandoned American version of "Red Dwarf" (as a filler
show)?

Is there anything in the TV Guide (or other news) saying when this might
get used?

In a surprise move, CNN has rented a channel on the European ASTRA satellite
system and is available now to all of Europe - all you need is a 60cm dish.
Since that came w/o any warning, there are no program notes available here,
but am I right in thinking that the program itself repeats 1:1 week after
week (with new topics, of course)? If that's so, could someone either mail
me such a program structure for a typical CNN week or tell me where one could
get it (preferably in Europe)? Given that CNN is 'the' news channel, is there
still a daily feature that could be called *the* main news program? And 
another thing that interests me most: does CNN still carry all space shuttle
launches and landings live? Does this extend to other space events as well?
And: what are CNN's science & technology programs? When are they aired?

Thanks a lot!

Hi.

I vividly recall this.  Brooke Shields is the same age as me, and I have
seen those pictures (not in a soft-porn magazine for sure, but I can't
remember where).  The picture I remember best is her sitting in a bathtub.
She is nude, but the water covers her from the waist down.  Her body is
not developed, but her face is made up and the contrast between her adult
looking (and beautiful) face and her child body is shocking.  She has a flower
or something in her hands and she is holding it up and looking at it.

I remember it so well because I was a teenager Brooke's age (at the height
of her popularity) and I was so shocked that her MOTHER would take her to
get those picture made and let people look at them.

I don't remember other pictures, just the one in the tub.  I do remember that
that was the one I was most embarrassed for her about, so I'm sure the others
were not as bad.

Good idea.  Besides, even if the anti-ql people DO get one created, there is 
nothing that says people will actually USE it (and THEN what would be
the point?).

I don't particularly care if a ggroup is actually created - I probably won't

That was uncalled for.  There is a preponderance of evidence to prove
that wearing a safety belt in an accident will make one more likely to
survive than being propelled through a windshield at any speed.

My favorite quote about safety belts comes from an anonymous Ohio
State trooper: "I have NEVER unbuckled a dead body."

Yes, this is the way it was stated, however, I believe the title of 
that section did clarify at least a little:  (I'm going from memory)
"a study of 100 hours of prime time revealed that..."  My impressions
when I first read it were that they were saying that these characters did
not do anything to lead one to believe that they had a particular religious
affiliation, as opposed to they could not have any religious affiliations.
