MARK OF THE OCEANIC FLIGHT

Mark Thompson is one of my best buddies, and he came through for me with this picture he snagged from the TV movie "Category 6: Day of Destruction":

Oceanic Airways is best known from 'Lost' but has appeared in enough other TV shows - some even before 'Lost' first aired! - to have been inducted into the TV Crossover Hall of Fame (in June of 2007).

And while this appearance is another tally mark for Oceanic Airways in the overall TV Universe, it is not from Earth Prime-Time. There is an alternate TV dimension out there, one the 'Sliders' crew may have visited, where the Earth is always being pummeled by natural disasters like volcanoes, earthquakes, tornadoes, ice ages, the splintering of the moon...... It's a wonder the human race has survived as long as it has on that world!

But this is a great addition to the Toobworld Central crossover collection - I especially like that Mark thought to add the info bar as well!

Thanks, Buddy!

That's okay, Andy; this is one of those cases where there's a separation between the movie universe and the TV universe. photos from movies with actors we know better from TV shows used to be fodder for the old Inner Toob feature "Fanficcer's Friend". This is along the same lines....
