That phrase was popularized by... erm... I forget his name, but a cartoon character that was very old and very forgetful. Magoo? That sounds right... Anyways, it was a long time ago. Anything using it recently is a copycat. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

V- was a mini series, and turned into crappy series that Lasted less than a year. So was SeaQuest.

Criminally speaking of course was what ABC did to Battlestar Galatica, first pulling it off the air because they could not aford to keep it on, and secondly by airing that horrid series Battlestar Galatica 1980. Ohhhhhhh I still get sick thinking about that brain fart!

Didn't Sea Quest Last for several years? 5 or 6 or so?

SeaQuest trudged on for a while.. even had Luke--I mean Mark Hamill on for a few episodes. Got really lame and cheesey. They should've left it dead at the end of the first season, I believe it was, where they ended up actually destroying the SeaQuest.

What, no Blake's 7? That show had balls, ending the series by killing everyone off, destroying their ship, leaving the main character's fate uncertain... Yeah, let's just see those Star Trek wimps do THAT with their series!

I voted for Star Trek (TOS) and Stargate SG1. The first is a true 'Classic' and SG1 has got to be one of if not the best example of Sci-Fi writing on TV today. (SG Atlantis has so far fallen way short of the original in terms of quality.)

now for some nostalgia,.. I remember a few old TV Sci-Fi series.. U.F.O., Space 1999, Logan's Run, Lost in Space, (the original Flash Gordan series was before my time, but worth mentionning.) there was Fantastic Journey, Quantum Leap, Sliders, The Visitor, 7 Days, TekWar, and we must not forget the 'puppet-classics'.. Captain scarlet, and Thunderbirds.

Anyway, thanks for the trip down memory lane,.. strange, the 'lane' seems a bit foggier than the Last time I passed through it. hmmm.

Cheers1 http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Lost in Space!

"Warning! Warning! Danger! Danger! Run, Will Robinson, run!"

Do you remember that old classic sci-fi movie, Forbidden Planet?
