ds9 pop quiz

[General Biakal]

does gerak on DS9 totally rule? for example- "Empok Nor", "...in the pale moonlight" and other key season 5,6,7 episodes. he stomps colon- medical fact.

[MarkRG]

Yes DS9 is a cool sci fi. probably one of the best ever made.

[MortiS-the-Lost]

yea Garrik has to be one of the best charicters in DS9!

my favorate Star Trek show is still TNG though

[General Biakal]

season 6/7 of voyager actually had some of the best trek ever. "the void" and "friendship one" being amoung them. but for sheer ass-kicking you need season 3 of TNG. "yesterdays enterprise", "best of both worlds" and "relics"

[MarkRG]

Drifting off subject, But Andromida and firefly were cool sci fi s.

Game on.

[MortiS-the-Lost]

Voyager was pretty good, but I must admit I mainly watched it for Jeri Ryan

[BobbieTheDamned]

ah but didn't we all??

I still think that series 2 of the original trek was the best. Some TNG episodes are classics as are the dominion war era DS9 shows. Voyager was pretty good too.

I'll put a second good word in for Andromeda, though I did stop watching it later on, the early shows were awesome though.

My vote for awesome sci-fi that people have to see is Farscape, takes a while to get into it but once you know who all the characters are and a bit about them the show becomes awesome.

[MortiS-the-Lost]

yea Farscape was an awsome show once it got going, much better than Babylon 5 and Lexx

[MarkRG]

Babylon 5 was cool too, but can anyboby remember space 1999 and the kidies starfleet series when the 3 smaller attached space ships turned into a robot. it's probable the fore father of transfomers.

[General Biakal]

im sorry but andromeda makes me understand why non-geeks hate sci-fi. it makes my soul sad cos of how gash it is.

to quote "spaced" "babylon 5 is a big pile of shite"

the three robots thing Mark was on about was soooo cool and im try to find the torrent to download it as we speak. however did you know the big red robot was welsh? no word of a lie its name was Dai X.

far scape..... hmmmmm grey girl! mmmm! plus it was a remake of buck rogers which brings me to:

Buck rogers. two words. erin grey. i still love her.
plus the fighters were coolio

space 1999 and UFO were andersons forrays into live action. mixed results.

[MarkRG]

It was called Star fleet il try and find the annual next time im up north.

I am interested in a getting hold of a copy if you now where.

Cheers

Game on.

[MortiS-the-Lost]

Andromeda has it's moments, although I think (like many TV shows) I mainly watch it for chicks in catsuits

yep Bayblon 5 is a big pile of shit (I love that Simon Pegg saying that is part of the menu loop on the DvD) and has the worst CG effects this side of Dominator

yea Gigi Edgley is hott in Farscape and infact everything is Farscape looks awsome, because it was produced by the Henson workshops

Buck Rodgers I find overly cheesy even for the time

Space 1999 and UFO are worth a watch and wouldn't haved dated so badly if they hadn't been set in the late 20th century - talking of which what happened to these Eugenics Wars I was promised?

... and finally Battlestar Galatica, the old ones: classic if cheesy (especialy after the found earth again) and the new ones: very shiney, but once you get over it they are poorly written and only worth watching for that Cylon chick in the skimpy dresses

[MortiS-the-Lost]

I've seen Space 1999 and UFO

I don't think I know a show called 'Star Fleet' athough the way you discribed the show reminds of Voltron

dose any one else remeber Dark Season and The Tripods?

[MarkRG]

At the end of the day Thunder birds are still great even after all this time.

Game on.

[MarkRG]

The newer Battle star Galatica, the ships look better the cylons look more nasty and it's more balievable.

Can anyone remember Above and beyond.

Game on

[General Biakal]

im downloading space above and beyond as we speak. its really much more lame thn i remembered.

[General Biakal]
