| ...that special that aired on FOX (Channel 5 in NY) about a decade ago on Halloween? It was basically one where they tried to make everything seem extremely realistic. The only thing I remember specifically was that they were "fake reporting" as if there was a comet heading for Earth and it would hit within a few minutes, causing the destruction of the planet. Only reason I remember this is because my grandmother called the house in the biggest fright EVER since she "accidently" tuned in in the middle of it. Didn't know it was fake. :stongue: |

I recall... the story as I remember was as follows:
A meteor was headed for earth. Everyone was in a panic. Then more meteors were coming, and then the "movie" ended with the entire earth about to be demolished by a ton of meteors which turned out to have been sent by aliens.
I can't recall the title. But I do remember the title of another one they did with the "fake news" angle. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0116719/ |

Yeah. Yeah. That's it. Thanks for the link. I don't actually remember watching the Mars special but apparently this was the meteor special:
