So how much does that cover remind you of "Fantastic Planet"? You’d think something called Alien Nation: Ultimate Movie Collection might contain the 1988 movie “Alien Nation.” It does not. For $36.99 you get the five TV-movie sequels to Fox’s 22-episode 1989-1990 “Alien Nation” TV series, namely: “Alien Nation: Dark Horizon” (1994), originally written as the show’s second-season opener, resolves the first-season finale’s cliffhanger and introduces a Tenctonese (Newcomer) slavedriver who arrives on Earth looking to round up his missing stock. It co-stars Scott Patterson, who went on to play Luke Danes on “Gilmore Girls.” “Alien Nation: Body and Soul” (1995) dealt with an evil Tenctonese scientist and what appeared to be a human/Tenctonese hybrid. It co-starred future “Sex and the City” regular Kristin Davis. “Alien Nation: Millennium” (1996) dealt with a mind-altering artifact behind a deadly Tenctonese cult. This one co-starred “Married With Children” icon David Faustino. “Alien Nation: The Enemy Within” (1996) focused on a group of Tenctonese called The Eenos, a little-known cannibalistic sub-species that took to living underground and away from humans when its members reached Earth. “Alien Nation: The Udara Legacy” (1997) was about Tenctonese sleeper-assassins programmed long before they reached Earth. This one was co-written by Rockne S. O’Bannon, who also wrote the original James Caan movie. Extras include a 25-minute “Alien Nation” reunion taped at producer-director Ken Johnson’s house last year, as well as commentaries by Johnson on all five movies.

Teensy bisexual Vietnamese-Texan teen-runaway turned Maxim model Thien Thanh Thi “Tila” Nguyen achieved her greatest fame late last year as star of A Shot At Love With Tila Tequila a very very “Bachelor”-like MTV reality in which Nguyen, using her stage name of “Tila Tequila,” sought her soulmate from among 32 young men and women. Its finale was MTV’s most watched series telecast ever. 6.2 million viewers. The fellow who won the contest for Tequila’s heart, one Bobby Banhart, apparently never saw Tequila after the show stopped taping. An entry from a MySpace blog alleged to be Banhart’s:

well everyone wants to know so here it is she never called me after the last show and no one would give me her number so pretty much I feel like and ass but we are not 2gather u cant have a realationship bye urself ya know so now you all know and sometimes no matter how bad you want things to work out they dont and theres nothing you can do i tryed… thank you all.

The finale in which Tequila chose Banhart (whose MySpace fansite identifies him as a college graduate) hit MTV Dec. 18. “A Shot At Love 2 With Tila Tequila” was announced by MTV on the channel’s New Year’s special less than two weeks later. It premieres one week from today.
