Keef Endersons 2013 list / SF movie adaptations

[mary sullivan]

Hi Mike, concerning your favorite episode of UFO, was that the 1 when the
alien gets killed, we're in the first season.  Fun stuff.  I loved Lost In
Space as a child, and will admit to watching it now for fun, and there were
a couple of really good stories, "follow the leader, and the anti-matter
man," I know the plots are similar, and I never got into Space 1999, it
seemed really silly to me at the time.

That one was very ropey. My fave was "Survival" where Straker and Foster are
downed on the lunar surface and helped by an alien.

It's a shame that series two was resurrected as Space 1999 - a show with an
awful premise which quickly metamorphosed into Lost In Space 2 with
obligatory scary monsters. The only two espisodes of that I liked was the
Sargasso Space Monster one with the Albinoni score and the one where Simmons
won the lottery to go back to Earth.
