I remember watching reruns of Lost in Space and noticing how all scientific observations were written down in pencil on a clipboard. Now that makes me wonder how writers could envision advanced robots, but not computers for storage of information.

I really loved a show which was on many years ago. I think “The Invaders” only lasted one or two seasons.
I ordered the entire set on Netflix and was a bit disappointed at the first few episodes then it began to grow on me again.
They had a lot of interviews with Roy Thinnes and others involved with the show. The guy who created it was a communist tho Quinn Martin, the producer seemed fairly conservative. It turns out the show is still very popular in France.

Okay, how about Star Maidens, aka “the one about feminists from the planet medusa”? Anyone else see any episodes of that?

All I really remember is the title (I was about 8 or 10?) Was there a set of blond twins on that show?

Firefly was Fox's fault....Putting it up against Stargate 1 was just stupid. Where did they think they were going to get their audience?
The Tick was also stellar. Patrick Warburton's delivery stilted mannerisms were just hilarious.

From that list I wish they had continued Firefly, Defying Gravity, and Journeyman. Great shows with above average acting.

I LOVED Space 1999, because it was so bad.
“The moon, John! It’s the moon!”
I remember one where there was supposed to be a storm in front of a cave. You could see someone waving long grass over the opening.
It was so bad it was good.

Andy Griffith at his best! I have tried to find Salvage and/or Salvage One on DVD. I think that both shows were the same but for some reason at the time the second version had to be re-named.
To: kaylar
I gladly missed that one.
