Does anyone remeber this awesome SciFi? Just poped into my head a minute ago and went to look for the DVDs which cost around £7 for 2 episodes.

Also on my travels I found out the guy who made it, Gerry Anderson, was the guy who made Thunderbirds, Captain Scarlet and Stingray.

If you have never seen this you're missing out on something great, although last time I saw this I was probably in Junior School so it might not be that good. To be honest though it had it's own pogs so it must still be awesome even though it only ran for one season.

Yes! The 6pm slot used to be so good, well the 6-7:20 when the BBC showed Farscape Buffy and The Next Generation IIRC.

Apparently it didn't get good time slots in the US hence poor ratings which meant

I've got the police car toy in my wardrobe sill

OMG the name makes alarm bells sound in my head, although I can't remember ANYTHING about it. OMG a police car :| that rings bells too.

No time to google now, but thanks for reminding me. I'll look tomorrow.

I remeber the hotty! The human I don't remeber aint bad either!

I Remeber the dark haired guy but the main guy doesn't bring back many memories. I seem to recall him fighting with some bad guy who looked like that gimp in Farscape. I also seem to remember lots of sparks now.

I hated it tbh. It just couldnt compare to TNG!

locutus12 · 25 Jul 2006 at 01:27

just like good old Space Above and Beyond, this too went before its time

Was that the one where the moon broke out of its orbit and went for a stroll through deep space?

I used to love that show

Stupid plots, even sillier costumes... but it was just great lol.

Used to watch that religeously, have the toys still :cool:

Le_Petit_Lapin · 25 Jul 2006 at 07:12

I'd be willing to be that, like, Space: Above and Bayond, its a complete let-down if you watched it again nowadays.
