Its a wonder Jay Leno hasnt attacked the ridiculous "everyone-has-a- good-chuckle-at-the-end standard, overused by TV lately, it fits in with his TV material perfectly!) -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- But, one thing that he HAS done is complain about the 'Evil Twin' theory that all bad tv shows (st? Naah:-) have to have some sort of episode where one of the main characters has to have an evil twin emerge from somewhere and try to ruin the character. Trek has violated this not oce, but TWICE!!! The episodes are 'Mirror, Mirror' and 'The Enemy Within'. Anothger good joke he did that involving Star Trek was back when the Ringling Brothers' Circus was showing off that 'unicorn' animal. He really couldn't believe it. "What are they gonna show off next, live Klingon prisoners???" Priceless. -- Jonathan D.
