A Place Further Than The Bottle Rocket Can Fly. We really had our hopes up for this one, but as both Tim and I were to find out, the best thing about Stardust Telepath were its first few episodes. Beyond that, competitions await and some quite frankly baffling decisions, both by character and by show. I wanted to like this show, I really did. And so did Tim. I'm happy to report that next week will be no better. Wait... no! No, I'm not. The things I do for hints. Well, see you next week. -Stig Høgset.
