Alien Nation Podcast

[Geekyfanboy]

So I'm going to start yet another podcast.. been wanting to do a podcast on Alien Nation.. was going to do one for Treksf but I love that series so much I want to do an entire podcast just on that series.. figured it as 1 movie, 22 episodes and 5 TV Movies along with novels and comic books and if I release one a month there's a good 2 1/2 years worth of content.

So I need suggestions for a title.

Of course there is Alien Nation Podcast or Alien Nation FanCast, but I was also thinking The Newcommers Podcast or Newcommer podcast. Any Alien Nation fans out there who have an idea for a good title?

[Dangelus]

Cool!  I loved Alien Nation back in the day, had them all on VHS and watched them all the time.

Would this be in a similar style to the MASH one? Can't wait to hear it. :)

Hmmm title for the show....

A difficult one. If you exclude "Alien Nation" from the title people might not find it during search but personally I like "The Newcommer Cast"

[Geekyfanboy]

yeah it will be very much like the MASH fancast.

Yeah I feel like I almost have to keep Alien Nation in the title just so folks can find it.

How about "The Alien Nation Newcomers Cast"?

  HI geekfanboy,  I have just herd he promo for the alien nation podcat on the treks and waffon podcast.  I have allready downloaded the promo and the first podast to my laptop allready.  I look forward to listening to the podcast.

I loved watching Alien Nation back in the day and it was one of my favorites.  I hated it when they canceled the second season esp when they left off in a cliff hanger but it happens.  I watched all of the episodes, the TV movies and the original feathered film too.   I also read the TV tie in paperbacks published after the cancellation of the series.  I have also mention the podcast on my twitter feed.  I look forward the the future episodes.

Hi kenny, I download the podcast yeaterday but i have not had a chance to listen yet.  maybe to day I will be able to listen.  I loved reading the tv tie in novels, they were ecellent.  I never read the comic books, I never knew they had any of that at all.   when I listen I will post again on the fourm.

[Redshirt97]

OK I just listen to the first episode of the alien nation podast.  it was great!  loved every minute of it.  cant wait for the next one.  I have subscribed to it on iTunes allready. I am now following the pocast on twitter as well and sent a tweet allready.   listening to the pocast make me want to go back to 1990 or 89 again.  I look forward to the next pocast, can't wait.  one thing i do rembr from the series was the swear  word mother hummer which was used to insult humans.  just like the word frack from BSG.  a play on real life words they used to get around the censors.
