Who Is Chris Showerman,
And Why Is He Going
To Save Every One Of Us?!

Yeah, I would imagine a lot of you picked up the clue in that headline. Evidently, Chris Showerman is going to be Sci-Fi Channel’s new FLASH GORDON.

Here’s the original story!

I just hope they make this fun and don’t feel the need to turn the angst up too high. FLASH GORDON was never overly serious, and trying to chase the same sort of mood as, say, BATTLESTAR GALACTICA seems to me to be a huge miscalculation.

Flash. Ahhhh-ahhhhh. He is the savior of the universe. Please enjoy it, Sci-Fi. Please?
