One episode (I think near the end of S01)had a Raider in it, not being driven though. Pretty good show, too smile.

Yep, I did see that. I am really glad they brought that show back. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

It may be fair TV, but it's really bad science fiction. After nearly 60 years of waiting, I have yet to see a good SF show on TV that wasn't a movie, and only one or two decent movies. TV writers apparently can't handle SF, and I doubt many viewers can, either.

Yeah, most of what is called Sci Fi is really fantasy in a futuristic setting.

I have seen a few real SF movies on TV...the best was called The Quiet Earth, a 'B' movie but with good bones.

How about Dark Angel? Stargate?

I've only got two. Destination Moon, screenplay by Robert Heinlein, and A Boy and His Dog.
