No. Please, no. For the love of God, no. Why?

I make a great Magenta. I've made it on stage at Rocky Con many times for the costume contest as the crowd pick and I actually won one year. I was the featured Magenta on the VH1 special for the 25th Anniversary Rocky Con that was held in Las Vegas in October 2000. I'll have to see if I can find pictures and figure out how to post them, but they may not be safe for work.

Needless to say, I'm a huge RHPS fan. As my husband @Pavlov would say, "It's pathological".

- Me, after flashing the crowd my tits at the 25th anniversary costume contest. No, that is not a wig.

- @MrsPavlov Tease. How about showing us the mid-flash shot from a few seconds before.

- @SIMBM I agree with you completely and I blame social media and the 'giving every kid that shows up a trophy' mentality for ruining it. But then I generally blame most everything on those two things. When really it is @carl669's fault.

- @JonT All of the remakes. It's like there's some kind of Time Warp.

Well, at least they'd never make a disappointing sequel with only a couple of the original characters.

Oh, wait...

Well I can't say I am totally against it. I love the original and am intrigued at the possibilities. I can think of a host of present day actors that I would enjoy their rendition of the time warp.

It can't possibly be worse than Fat and Furious 7.

They'll get halfway through it, spend a ton of money on the sets, and then quit. This is the Fox way.
In news that I'm choosing to focus on, The Tick is in development by Amazon. With Warburton.

- @thismyusername I really liked Almost Human. And Terra Nova could've been a good show in almost any other network's hands. Ok, not CW...

- @jaremelz For either of them to work on the CW they would need to be re-cast with actors who can play "teenagers" ;)
