San Diego, Academic Computer Center Lines: 20 Keywords: The WORST ... I have just watched the " Fine Tuning " ( certainly not amazing ) episod, and here is my reaction : This is not only THE worst "amazing story " so far, but also one of the worst tv shows I ever saw. The story was a succession of cliches, the masks were terribly unattractive, although they ( of course ) were modeled on the human physiology, their language had absolutely no sign of higher intelligence (although they were able to travel 10 light-years), etc.. Could anyone believe that such supposedly highly intelligent creatures would waste their time watching such primitive tv shows ? Could anyone believe that NBC agreed to air this show, or did Spielberg have total carte blanche ? As for me, I am definetely washing my hands of this show, and removing my view of the NBC network as a quality network.. N.G. , Un. of Cal. San Diego
