The first 2 seasons of the USA series came out on DVD this month. I finished watching them again for the first time since they were on TV... For how cheesy they are I still like this show and glad they finally tossed it on DVD.

The series is better than the movie. Chet rules in the series.

I remember liking the show when I was a kid, but I was almost certain that it was going to be a case of nostalgia playing tricks on my brain, so I never got around to checking it out again.

Yeah I was afraid of that too. I know it's partially why I still enjoyed watching it but Chet seems to make up for the cheesiness in almost every episode for the first 2 seasons. I laughed out loud a few times.

I can't remember if the show got progressively better or worse though. I believe it was on for 5 seasons?

And then memorable quotes like this on IMDB aren't helping:


[Lisa is possessed by a cyberdemon]
Wyatt Donnelly (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0541308/): Who are you?
Lisa (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0029502/): Me? I'm the living embodiment of all that is evil in the computer world.
Gary Wallace (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0038875/): You're Bill Gates?

Something odd has happened to my brain since I saw this show.

How do even old pictures of Vanessa Angel make her face look like a freaky skull when they never did before?

thats kinda funny because the original gary wallace from the movie Anthony Michael hall went on to play bill gates. Not what they were going for though. And also lame barely any extras
