Slaine mac Roth Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 Yes I remember UFO (and Gabrielle Drake) very well, it became quite an obsession of mine. Strange to think that Ed Bishop (Cmdr Straker) and Michael Billington (Paul Foster) both died within hours of each other, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
physics23 Posted November 29, 2005 Share Posted November 29, 2005 http://www.m-nomura.com/st/images/tng.jpg When I was growing up I was heavily into Star Trek: The Next Generation. I even subscribed to Star Trek: The Official Fanclub Magazine and went to a convention in Boston. Up until around my junior year of high school, I still read the ST: TNG original novels, and I have a bunch of other Star Trek-related books in my personal library.

Jack Aubrey Posted November 29, 2005 Share Posted November 29, 2005 (edited) Oh God, the Trekkies have landed.......... My poor forum. I'm going to say this only once, and then I will shut my pie-hole: Star Trek sucks. Thank you, carry on.

I don't think I'm truly a trekkie but I have seen all of the original series many times (my older bros were addicted to it). It took time but the show grew on me. I never got into the spin-offs. A show that had Leonard Nimoy in it that I really loved was a documentary-type thang called "IN SEARCH OF...". I think it was out sometime in the late 70s. It wasn't really a sci-fi program but it did tackle such topics as UFOs & aliens. Other 'investigations' they did included: ghosts & hauntings, Knights of the Round Table, Bigfoot, Loch Ness, Noah's Ark, etc. I really miss that show.

I was younger when i watched it Ricky, so you must have seen it in syndication or something cuz i belive i'm older than you. I remember seeing it with my dad, so that was before I was seven. Do you know of its availability on DVD or anything? I would love to watch it again. Yes... the purple haired women were hot. Even my very young mind could comprehend that.

I loved this show. http://www.kelwick.karoo.net/Images/TV%20Pics/ST-Voyager-S5-01.jpg Not EXTREMELY well-liked by Trek fans, but it was a masterfully done show! http://www.geocities.com/Hollywood/Hills/3893/7dhm.gif A REAL Diamond in the rough. Cancelled due to 9/11, This show could've been GREAT with a few more good actors. I really wish I could get this one on DVD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're 3 years younger than me actually NM. I think it was originally screened about '70/'71, but when I saw it it was about '73 and this would make me about 10/11. It was shown again in the UK in the mid '80s too. The model was the SHADO INTERCEPTOR and was made by Dinky Toys (die cast metal), about 8" long from what I can remember, and a button on it made the torpedo fire. Amazon sell it as a full series on DVD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arndrake Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 One I wanted to mention, but forgot to. Earth 2 Even though it only lasted one season, I thought it had a great story concept. Like 'wagon train of the future.' And the series started out with such a great villain as played by Tim Curry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
