Tea and Dragons

I've been working my way through the first season of War of the Worlds TV series, mostly to get to the second season to see Catherine Disher and Adrian-Paul-with-short-hair (I saw a couple of scattered eps years ago and was intrigued).  The first season is, alas, appallingly bad; badly written and very poorly acted for the most part.  Usually the extras are doing a better job than the main folks, though it's good to see a main character of color, a main character who's handicapped, and a woman scientist--esp. in a '90s series! 

However, watching a very young Detective Vartan spew green and melt was unexpectedly entertaining.  *grin*  Not to mention him dressing like an escapee from New Wave.
