We know that Alec Baldwin has an impulsive streak and sometimes rattles off a comment or two that he probably wishes that he could take back. Still, every so often he comes up with a truly brilliant idea -- like a sexy TV drama combining global warming and space travel. Of course, Fox execs shot it down immediately. Baldwin:

"I once pitched a show to (Fox president of entertainment) Kevin Reilly. I told him I wanted to bring back space travel on TV, like "Star Trek," but that I wanted to have sex in the space capsule and get really adult. In the show, the space capsule will have left Earth, and because of global warming, the Earth is dying. I'm the commander of this ship and I say, "We can never go back!" So Reilly is sitting there listening very patiently and finally says, "Well, we're never going to do that."

I think the nation is ready for a global warming spaceship drama. Heck, Disney's already doing a global warming comedy -- and it's a kid's movie.

Well, this just proves that the media is complicit in propagating the 'GREAT GLOBAL WARMING HOAX' TM. Next thing you know, the public will join the great conspiracy to act responsibly and work to leave their children a world that's inhabitable. Oh, the HORROR.
