"Number one: I order you to take a number two, on the bridge" Worf: "Captain I recommend photon torpedoes; full spread" Jean Luc " No MR warf we will out smart them at their own game" Warf "Sssssshiiiiiiiiitttt nig..."

For some reason we can't make programs like this any more. The presenters of science programs talk so slowly and take so long to say one sentence that my mind has already wandered. Then que some background music and some stock footage and then finally another sentence prized out at such length that I forgot what the last sentence was and I've lost interest.
