And here I thought I was the only person ON EARTH that liked Space 1999, i have four seasons in sets. I want the UFO series, you are the only other person I have ever "met" that remembers that series.
How do you feel abour SeaQuest DSV, had a guy give me the first season, it's OK.
Hey, after a day of doing the REAL LIFE thing, a little scifi makes the world entertaining.

Don't laugh...I STILL have a model of the Eagle Transport sitting on my display shelf in the living room!
Alot of people don't know that the head special effects guy (model designer) of Space 1999 was hired by George Lucas for the first Star Wars motion pic.
You should talk to NocturnalVX...he told me on the way to Moab that he has the complete series on DVD too.
SeaQuest DSV was too non-violent the first season...got better after that...than got hokey + cheesey the last season. Although..its a toss-up who the better captain was...I liked both Roy Sheider & Mike Ironside.
Space 1999 does have one thing that is hard to take seriously and makes me snicker...their laser pistols. They are useless against every alien they encounter but work really good on each
other..
Here's a couple of pics from "UFO":

Just kidding! Everyone knows that UFO was the REAL science fiction show, while Space 1999 was a glorified cartoon.

Yep, count me as one of the few Space 1999 fanatics... VERY cool Eagle model! :_drool: I love Sci-Fi in general, and (while the series had it's cheesiness) I liked it way better than the first Star Trek.
Back on topic though... I love how the egg-heads go ahead and fire up experiments knowing that it may blink out life as we know it. "Oh, go ahead and flip the switch already! There's almost NO chance of this thing forming a black hole that will destr*
Oh yes, yes. Very good choice, Worm! Another almost perfect likeness...
Man, I miss Half-Life. I should load it up and give it another go...its just saw hard to adjust to old graphics.
And this reminds me, I still need to get our vintage Max Headroom poster framed sometime soon.

Dude...If I didn't know any better...you're really one of those Predator alien thingies from the movies..you know...the one with the Jamaican dreadlocks who likes checking out AHNOLD's skull definition before he's going to shoot him with the red laser pointer
Oh..and just a quick note...if you ever saw Mel Brook's "SpaceBalls"...he pokes fun at almost every space genre out there...his spoofing of Space 1999 was the flying space motorhome designated "Eagle 5".
