Life could be this beautiful without NBC-TV in it.

Ronald D. Moore had better start heading home to his daddy's pig farm right now, because GINO suffered a 23% drop in viewers in last weeks episode, and a 23% drop the week before. Maybe it is due to the fact that Sci-Fi Channel finally detached GINO from its BULLSHIT MARKETING MACHINE, and the inevitable "removal of the training wheels" finally did GINO in. The Universal/Sci-Fi Channel executives PRETENDING to be GINO fans on the Skiffy board are undeterred by the 46% TOTAL LOSS of viewers over the past two weeks. They have come up with every excuse in the book to WAX OVER THIS FAILURE; from Sun spots, to Elvis sightings, UFOs, Tivo, to a rather INCREDULOUS nation wide systems crash of ratings tabulating systems which occurred AT THE EXACT MOMENT as the GINO broadcast. Coincidences like this never cease to amaze, right? One coincidence I would love to see, is every Universal/Sci-Fi Channel executive getting KICKED IN THE ASS at the exact same time with steel toed boots. That would be worth paying to see, wouldn't it?
According to TwoBrained Cylon (who flip-flops more times in his personal opinions of GINO than a Republican candidate trying to STEAL a PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION) Ronald D. Moore has been having some rather UNPLEASANT MEETINGS with Universal/Sci-Fi Channel over this UNPRECEDENTED ratings drop. I would imagine that Moore is starting to worry about his employment future at this point, as his PIECE OF SHIT production is hardly a lifetime insurance policy in guaranteeing decades long employment. I would love to have been sitting in one of these meetings between Universal executives and Ronald D. Moore:
Universal Executive #1: "So what happened, Wonder Boy?"
Ronald D. Moore: "I-I-I don't know what you mean!!"
Universal Executive #1: "Your ratings are sinking faster than my Grandmother's SAGGING CLEAVAGE!!"
Ronald D. Moore: "I-I-It's just a little spike, things will pick up with the 'Pegasus' episode, I PROMISE!!!"
Universal Executive #1: "Since when does something spike downward, Ronny boy? As for the 'Pegasus' episode, I don't
think we want to wait that long!!"
Ronald D. Moore: (on his hands and knees praying with clasped hands) "Please give me another chance!! My series is
making significant in-roads with the 'TOS fans who won't watch my shit but conned their pets into
watching my shit' demographic!!"
Universal Executive #2: "Wall Street doesn't give a shit about cats and dogs, Ronny boy!! They want the '18-24
female nympho demographic' which you have REPEATEDLY FAILED to provide!!"
Ronald D. Moore: (goes ballistic, quoting dialogue from 'Aliens', running around the room) "Vasquez....Ripley....lay down
a suppressing fire near the generators"...."You always were an ass-hole Gorman"....."It's your
second chance, kiddo!!"......"Man, this is a big fucking' signal!!"......"All right, lets waste him, no
offense!!"
Universal Executive #1: (sprays Ron Moore with a fire extinguisher and then whacks him over the head with a rolled up
newspaper) "It's not the end of the world, man!! Even though you'll never work in this town
again, all of us Universal executives hate your guts, and you're banned from Universal-Orlando
for life, its still not the end of the word!!"
Ronald D. Moore: (covered in fire extinguisher shit and balling his eyes out) "Where are my ruby slippers? I want Auntie
Emm!! When I tap my ruby slippers together, I'll wake up, everyone will love me again, and my GINO
will be getting a 40 share!!"
Universal Executive #2: "I've had enough. (gets up and leaves) I'm going to try and get onto Langy's board again, read
the index, and wait for him to ban my IP!!"
