   I walked out as soon as they realised they were TV characters.   
      
   The opening titles alone are jammed packed with BR references, the   
   tyrell pyramid next to big ben, the four of them falling through sheet   
   glass into snow.  the very last thing I saw before I threw in the towel   
   was the blurb from the back of the DVD case, which describes the crew   
   going on a Blade Runner-esque adventure to find their makers and plead   
   for more life.

      Oh people, know that you have committed great sins.   
       If you ask me what proof I have for these words,   
       I say it is because I am the punishment of God.   
            If you had not committed great sins,   
     God would not have sent a punishment like me upon you.
