Niners, did you like.......................

It looked cool, but I can't say I really got into it. The premise was, let's face it, absurd. I wouldn't mind seeing an episode or two again though - honestly, I can't remember much about it except how stark and evocative it looked and that it had Barbara Bain and Martin Landau in it. My first thought is with those two, how bad can it be? But the answer is, "Maybe really bad," so I'd have to see it again.
This Niner grew up on the show...
...And yes: He liked it.
As did this one. Not a great show by any means, but watchable.
It was OK but more importantly did fill a SF need.
I saw it when it was first on, and loved it at the time, largely because it often made no sense at all, in that Classic Doctor Who WTF is going on sort of way.
I'm watching it again on dvd, but took a break to complete watching DS9, and I'm back and forth on it.
But both opening themes rock!
Yes. Adore it. The second series is a bit rubbish but the first is something rather special...
I remember the build up to the series. I was VERY excited because I loved my TOS. I was a teenager. I had a TOS fan friend and we both could hardly wait for SP1999.
It was so goddamn boring I almost cried.

Like most SF series at the time, the first season started off with great premise and promise, a real vision despite the TV budget. Then, during the last season, Fred Freiberger got involved and introduced sex and a monster-of-the-week because "that's what those Americans seem to like."
Plus, almost every ep had cool 'sploshuns!
