Actually, it’s 25 years by my count. I believe you’re thinking of [i]Probe[/i], the 80s miniseries. I’m talking about [i]P.R.O.B.E.[/i], the 90s movie series.

And I would’ve gotten away with it, too… [img]http://www.sadgeezer.com/ubb/smile.gif[/img]
It’s just that you like to attack my viewpoints, and the statement that [i]P.R.O.B.E.[/i] is like [i]Scooby-Doo[/i] is just the kind to spark controversey.
Now, if there [i]are[/i] any fans out there thinking of writing a flame post, I apologize for the comparison. The [i]P.R.O.B.E.[/i] movies have a somewhat different premise, more realistic characters, genuinely suprising endings, and overall better writing. It was, admittedly, somewhat naïve to compare them to a crude and clichéed 60s cartoon show. It’s just that, when I first saw [i]Scooby-Doo[/i], my first thought was “My God! It’s like an animated [i]P.R.O.B.E.[/i]!” [img]http://www.sadgeezer.com/ubb/rolleyes.gif[/img]
