Third, we didn&#8217;t even discuss the Dirty Pair as much as we had intended.  This unfortunate set of circumstances has prompted us to put both shows back in the schedule for a later review, where we can talk about space exploration, androids, space chicks, and all sorts of cool things that Neil likes to talk about.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>This was a crazy idea from the start.
