Dude, it’s like, the fascists who run this system that truly know what’s going on. They know how this system runs and how things go down. Do you wanna know why they cover up the UFO encounters? 'Cause they’re not really alien space ships - they’re government weapons being tested. That’s the reason for the flashing lights, the crashing noises in Area 51 and the men in black suits and sunglasses. It’s all government inside jobs. They may not be aliens, but they _are_\*\* watching us. Beware. 🆒 ---

Jaclyn Smith was chopped liver next to Kate Jackson. That voice was freaking awesome (and Suzanne Pleshette has a similar pleasingly rough quality to her voice). ---
