    Kilt on Ghost Hunters International

    Just watching tonight's episode with Inverary Jail... one of the members is wearing a kilt. Not sure about the tartan... now to run back and catch the rest of the show. Just had to post about it

    Wish I still had SciFi... I miss watching Ghost Hunters.

    I used to watch SciFi several years back. I liked that remake of Dune they made.
    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
    Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…

    I have the Dune remake on DVD. Loved it!! The only thing better about the original is that Patric Stewart was in it. Of course in the new one you get to know Duncan and Gurney so it's actually better. I just wish they would change it back to "Sci-Fi" instead of the current "SyFy." The letter "Y" is not in either word. Anyhow...

    Thanks for the heads up. I just set my DVR to record that episode next time it's on.

    Thumbs down

    Just a recap of the show for ya'

    Something touched my leg!

    What was that?! Do we have any people up there?

    Did you hear that? It said 'Get Out' (in English, even though we're in France or where ever)

    I saw something!

    Dude! RUN!

    Do you smell something?

    That stuff, wrestling and canceling Caprica, is why I actively boycott the SyFail channel now.

    I like watching it for the locations and hearing about the buildings. It's not as bad as the ghost adventures show or whatever it's called. Did you really have to jump on this thread and do that? This thread was just about spotting a kilt while people were visiting two places in Scotland.

    Well it's all individual preference, I mean, I don't go to Ren Faires because of the amount of people in historically inaccurate Kilt costumes, but some people just love the feeling of the places, wear whatever they want and have a wonderful time.
    I don't watch much T.V. at all but I'd watch something like that if I came across it just to enjoy seeing a bit of home or an interesting castle elsewhere.

    Cynthia, I apologize to you for the thread-jack. I used to really enjoy the Sci-Fi network, and I feel pretty strongly about a lot of their current programming of shows that might be 'fiction' but not 'Science Fiction'. I'll blame my lack of decorum on the late hour, and the fact that I'd just been discussing the same sort of topics over on the Facebook SyFy Boycott page.

    And Arlen, you could have stated your potential interest in shows like that without directing a personal insult at me for being a rennie. You continue to show a lack of the neutrality a moderator should have.

    Good eye! Did you ever catch another glimps to identify the tartan?

    Although, if it were me...unless it was Blackwatch, I'd never be able to identify the tartan.

    Ok...MAYBE I'd recognize MY kilt. But then again, I would probably have noticed it missing from my closet as well
