Bring Back Space Above and Beyond

Ok, in the Babylon 5: Crusade thread
( http://www.dvdtalk.com/forum/showthr...hreadid=396157
) I mentioned someone starting a "Bring Back Space Above and Beyond" thread, so I decided to just start it. Obviously some people want SAAB Back.....

Oh, news since I posted this, the complete series of SAAB (what was that 5 episodes ?) seems to be coming to DVD too. Here is that discussion:

SAAB only. Farscape leaves me flat, as did Crusade.

This seems to be more about the shows than DVDs... moving to TV talk.

Who's the four idiots who voted for the "Election was fixed"? Even Kerry and his army of lawyers say they lost the election fair and square.

Heck, just bring Space Above and Beyond on DVD. I e-mailed Fox and was basically told there is no plans for one.

Re: Bring Back Space Above and Beyond

I really liked SAAB, but how can you bring the show back?
Didn't most of them die in the last episode?

Space: Abysmal and Boring, as good ol' Gharlane on rec.arts.sf.tv used to call it. A show that was so unoriginal they literally rewrote scripts from 50s westerns and changed the names.

A show created solely so the producer could give his girlfriend actress a role when she could barely speak a complete sentence.

Yeah, we need more of that.

Screw it. Bring back Firefly after the movie. And while we're at it, Sports Night.

I'll be happy if/when the show is released on DVD. If the writers and actors can come together for a finishing movie a la Farscape that would be even better.

You know, using checkboxes rather than option buttons would have eliminated the need for all those "combo" choices...

In any rate, I want more Farscape, but I'm not holding my breath. And while dreams are fine, those other programs are loooong dead. Dead, dead, dead and cold. Might as well start a campaign to bring back The Time Tunnel.

The Time Tunnel is currently appearing on the Action Channel. It's on right before Combat.

Boy Phil, you really don't understand the genre. Dead just means, kinda missing until the next pseudo science mumbo jumbo resurrects them, or it was their clones, or there was a time dialation (star trek favorite), or it was a dream.... "Etcetra, Etcetra, Etcetra!!"

At the risk of getting off topic (the choice was put in for humor), do not confuse doing what is best for the country (something GW knows nothing about), with being satisfied that honesty was had.

For the SAAB fans, check out Season 2 of Millienieum. I think every major actor that was on SAAB, played in Mil season 2. Wong directed as well.
