Nah, they’ve already got one 3-titted alien and it didn’t do a thing for me.
Do you really think people watch this show and jerk off?
Perhaps the “titilation” is just for humors sake?
But then again, that alien was pretty ugly.
Somewhere around here there’s a thread where a Doper claims to know someone so addicted to hentai porn that he can’t get interested in real women, so I’d say, yeah, someone out there does jerk off while watching the show.
And if it was as well done as say, Benny Hill, Monty Python, Dave Allen, or Henry Miller, to name but a few who’ve used titilation for humor’s sake, then I’d probably find it funny. The episode of Tripping the Rift that I saw was just, “Let’s make the boobies bounce because we can!”
So two or three out of the, um, hundreds of viewers who watch this show jerk off to it. The same can probably be said of Everybody Loves Raymond.
And your problem with that is …?
Yeah, but I don’t think that the writers of Everybody Loves Raymond **set out with the idea that they’d do a show which was little more than jerk off material, whereas it seemed apparent from Tripping that they did intend such a thing.
If you want to show bouncing boobies, then show 'em. Don’t clutter 'em up with some thinly disguised story or plot. Just show the boobies, you know, be honest about the whole thing. Tell the viewers you couldn’t think of anything, but bouncing boobies, so rather than waste the viewers time with things like story, plot, or character development, you’re just going to show bouncing boobies. I bet Enterprise would get higher ratings if they just showed the Vulcan chicks tits bouncing instead of wasting a whole hour on some stupid story that hardly anyone cares about.

I only saw two of the aired shows, and neither of the web shows.

I watch it once in a while… it’s not great, but it’s moderately entertaining. It’s like Duckman in space, with CG.
I haven’t seen the show, I just wanted to compliment Tuckerfan on his completely gratuitous Crazy People reference. Well done, sir, well done!
Thank you. It just seemed appropriate to the subject matter. I really like the idea of honest advertising (You know, “Porsche: It’s a little too small to get laid in one, but as you as you get in one, you will get laid.” or “Jaguar: For men who want handjobs from women they hardly know.” See, that shit’s funny!)
They made a series out of this? I remember, several years ago, when it was a short on some SciFi show that showed short-films.
Your standards are somewhat lax if you think Tripping is jerkoff material. Frankly, I wouldn’t trust someone as excitable as you around a TV set at any time.
What a binary little world you must live in. It’s gotta be either hardcore porn or nothin’ eh?
I definately would not trust him with my computer. No telling what article will excite him and there is no question in my mind what he would leave behind on the keyboard.
For God’s sake, will somebody please make a joke about this?
See now… I -like- tripping the rift… but not because it makes me think, or because of Six’s outfits and boobs (she’s a freaking sex slave cyborg - what the heck would you have her look like?) but the mild satire and commentary on today’s weirdnesses in society. The dark clowns taking over a poor hunter-gatherer society planet to convince them that yes! They will enjoy minimum wage! (“but we’re HAPPY now!” the shaman exclaims) and the time travel that … killed God at the beginning of the universe. Oops. Mutilation ball - the obvious extrapolation to modern sports… like hockey. more blood! MORE BLOOD! And the fat, drug addicted, alcoholic former athletic star surrounded by groupies. And the Miss Whatever pageant where… due to disqualifications - even a 3 breasted pustulent moomoo can win.
And for all Sci-fi claims its an original series… the credits state that it was created for Canada’s Space channel (affiliated? same owner? hmm.). This may cause a small amount of bias on my part. 
I didn’t say I jerked off to the crap.
Didn’t say that either, but nothing bores me faster than gratuitous sex thrown in because the writer couldn’t think of anything else to do.
I could, but it would be easier for me to direct you to www . sexytrek . com. Warning: NOT a work-safe link. It’s a porn site that… well, I think you all can figure out the rest. Suffice to say, even I was not geeky enough to be aroused by it, and that’s saying something.
Fighting and deciding… to not say nothing at all.
Hey Miller! Did ya miss me?
I just thank God you decided against trying to be witty. That never works out well.
