I think I read somewhere there had been talk of reviving it but the cost of doing so would have been far too high.Quote:

there are shows where I wish they had made more:
police squad, firefly etc, but not sure I would want to try to bring them back - they wouldn't be as good
having said that, sometimes when they do bring something back it works just as well l, like the tick.
I'd like another series of Dirk gentley's hollistic detective agency, but it doesn't look like they'll make it.

If the enemy caught your boomerang he could use it against you, and if the enemy threw your spear back he might miss and you'd have anpther go. As generally boomerangs were only used by native australians its a fair bet your enemy was uing a boomerang too. you could be out the back all day lobbing the bloody things around.Quote:
