Sucky Flash

Check the hot guy in the background of both of these pics from the upcoming Sept 14 episode of Sci Fi's Flash Gordon:



Hot hot hot! But reason enough to give this show another chance? We watched the premiere. Well, I watched it, and Brett fell asleep. We were both very disappointed in it. (For one thing, I can't stand Eric Johnson, the guy playing Flash, who was in the first season or two of Smallville)

Anyone else watching this? Opinions? Did it get ANY better? I mean, they took away the whole "Flash, Dale, and crew leave Earth on a super cheesey but fun space ship" from the movie (and I'm assuming from the original strips), and instead go through a space warp. Oh yay. Don't we already have that with Star Gate? And that's just for starters... The whole thing was really very unoriginal (yes, I know Flash Gordon is hard to make "original" since it's an old series)...but it didn't feel like a really kick-ass reimagining like Battlestar did.
