...shows are mere lures to the low plausibility bar of home viewers. Watching them costs nothing but time. It's a different matter to ask moviegoers to pay for The Fourth Kind, a movie that's all setup and [SPOILER ALERT!], with the exception of one creepy levitation, no payoff in the chill department.
