Woo-hoo! :)

Could this be the comeback Tony Piana's 'tache has been waiting for?

Thankfully he's moved on to a more fulfilling career. He seems happy. Good for him! :)

He does indeed look very happy. And it must be so much easier to smile with all that weight off his upper lip. 

British TV....what a snooze zzzzzz Hopefully it's good and not dull and weird like dr who crapola. There was already a war of the worlds tv series in 1988-1989, it was excellent hope this one is even better.

OK. I LOVE almost all things War of the Worlds but that show, which ran from 1988-1990, was an absolute disaster. The acting was atrocious, the writing was terrible and then the show was revamped almost entirely as "War of the Worlds: The Second Invasion" and it was even worse. It literally had two decent episodes - the season premiere "The Second Wave" and "Time To Reap" when they traveled back to 1953. The only improvement was that I didn't have to hear, "To life immortal!" or see Norton Drake and Colonel Paul Ironhorse ever again. Other than that, "what a snooze zzzzzz".

First I've heard of this. let's hope it gets made and it's good.

Walking on water is like finding a non fake female profile on a dating site...a miracle!
