‘Amerika’ (1987) trailer
This miniseries is set in 1997 - 10 years into a Soviet occupation of American. Sam Neill, Lara Flynn Boyle, Kris Kristofferson and Robert Urich star. This was made by ABC and cost 40 million and was 1 of the last epic miniseries. This was a ratings bust and critically panned. There is mumbling, an upside down flag, cod Russian accents and this looks cheesy and sappy and silly. Recall the video cases for this miniseries? There were 3 of them and they had 1997 emblazoned on them. The 3 parts were called ‘Prisoners In Their Own Land’, ‘The Face Of Occupation’ and ‘Shadows Of Terror’.
Best Lines:
“You lost the land!”
“How could we not win?”

Anyone see the 1995 ‘Richard III’?
Robert Harris’ ‘Fatherland’ was okay.
Anyone see ‘Blast From The Past’? or ‘Milk Money’?
I never saw ‘The Philadelphia Experiment II’.
Recall ‘The West Wing’ season 4 finale ‘Twenty Five’? The only ep I ever watched.
Saw some of the new ‘Once Upon A Time’ series. Mr Hyde has shown up, Emma is whining and the Evil Queen and her 80s music video outfits lurks. Snow and Regina are friends and everyone forgets the Huntsman ever existed. Didn’t Archie die? Mr Gold and Belle bore. Emma does facial clenches and the show makes few concessions to conventional plotting. Hook still isn’t dead. Henry lurks. How many surly idiot sons does Gold have?!?
Recall ‘Meet The Applegates? ‘Lord Love A Duck’? ‘Transylvania 6-5000’? ’Nothing But Trouble’?
I may review ‘Pompeii’.
