I did wonder, though, about the legal issues. In real life, would the facilities required be elaborate enough that this couldn't be done in a jurisdiction where the laws on reproductive cloning are looser? And could they have held the former security guard on charges related to improper disposal of medical waste?

I hope they don't just redo all the eps; the global warming one would seem exceptionally ludicrous now. Dr. A; the pilot, at least, is very similar to the original.

So let’s get the team out there looking for an Ent!” Thank you for this; it made me snort out loud which is a rare and precious thing. I liked Hood; I find the Feeb a bit of stretch. She looks like she couldn't wrestle a sandwich out of a wet paper bag ( but perhaps she should try for the sandwich ). I was hoping Marc Blucas would have a better and more permanent part as I liked him from Buffy. As you do for House and Fringe, I think this site will make me enjoy the show much more. Thanks for tackling this one, Scott. Your posts are quickly becoming a must daily read for me. “The DNA appears to be half human and half oak. So let’s get the team out there looking for an Ent!”
