Defying Gravity

Thursday, September 17th, 2009

Ok, I don’t usually post things about Television shows but since my favorite show might be on the chopping block, I thought I would at least say something.

Defying Gravity is a space drama show that is about so much more than just astronauts in space. Granter there are some quirks and things that are not exactly the best. But this is the shows first episodes of the first season. And if we look past those couple of things (most of which just make it more an adult drama than a complete family friendly one), this show has a great premise and kept me coming back for more and not just because I am a Sci-Fi Geek!!

Here is the shows premise:

Four women and four men hurtle through space with nothing to do for six years and eight billion miles, except maybe solve a powerful and awesome mystery. Maybe, just maybe, some of them will even hook up. How cool is that?

Defying Gravity is a sexy, provocative thriller set in the very near future against the backdrop of our solar system, in which the eight astronauts from five countries undertake a mysterious six-year international space mission on the spaceship Antares.

They can’t run from karma, however, as their past actions reveal intimate and interconnected relationships that have a strange effect on the present. As the astronauts travel towards Venus, we travel into their past with flashbacks to earlier years from the grueling selection and training process. What could have happened?

Maybe there is something to this fate thing after all.

The biggest thing that catches you is the characters and the listed mystery as to what is really going on that the crew is unaware of. And this mystery slowly unravels over the eight aired episodes (the latest five of total eight episodes can be watched on HULU). If you haven’t been watching hop over to HULU and watch.

For those who may already be watching, ABC has announced that they have not canceled the show nor have they given up on it. Just with their fall premieres starting, they are looking where the remaining produced 5 episodes that round out season 1 can be aired (read article here). They have not decided on a season 2, which is why everyone needs to be watching

Feed Changes

Sunday, January 25th, 2009

Google has purchased Feedburner, who you may not know is responsible for the distributing the AquiVerses many feeds to the world (The AquiCast, The AquiKnight, The AquiMan, and The AquiFamily blogs and Podcasts) all brought to you via the Feedburner main AquiFeed link (or AquiVerse link). Since Google has now purchased Feedburner, the old feed links will change to the new links in this post. It is important that you update your RSS FEED Readers to use the new links.

If you are receiving this post by email and you do not use an RSS FEED Reader (or you do know what one is) then you are fine and do not need to do anything.

Google claims that you will have a month that the old links will redirect before they stop them and only the new links will work. Therefore, it is best to update your information today and not be left behind.

One other thing, I do hope that you listen to my podcasts, The AquiCast, where I share the Word of God that is on my heart with you. If you do, I would like you to take a couple of moments and hop onto the blog site and on the right side click on the SURVEY and fill in the data so that I can get some feedback. I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks!
