    Democrats and the liberal media hate President Trump more than they
    love this country.

    I think I saw that mess. In my mind, it's titled The Star Prince. Looks
    like it changed titles a few times, so maybe that title breezed past or
    maybe I'm confused.

    I recall it as dreck. I watched it because there was so little SF on TV,
    but it was very bad. I vaguely remember one episode with a dolphin. Lots
    of racing, too, but I don't remember a magic show.
