Bill's Popcorn Rating: * * * * of 5 Studio: Warner Brothers Director:Tony Dow, Menachem Binetski Actors: Michael O'Hare, Bruce Boxleitner, Claudia Christian, Jerry Doyle, Tracy Scoggins Running Time: 16h I think i fell in love with this one partly because of the spectacular graphics, being one of the first television shows to extensively use CGI to produce the more spectacular space scenes, and the real element of the interpersonal relationships between the crew of the station and the various ambassadors. This isn't a collection of like minded races forming a federation, it's a bunch of stellar superpowers, many of whom spent years fighting one another with the sole goal of genocide. This is a powerful, and interesting show to watch, not to sickeningly goody two shoes, and not a blood fest, it realistically portrays the various dynamics that make up such a place, from the internal politics, to the back alley dealings and power brokering. I highly recommend this one for any real science fiction fan, and anyone who likes a good story. | |||
