sinergy Posted July 29, 2005 Share Posted July 29, 2005 just wondering, the show suddenly came to my mind. Any comentso n the show? I tought it was cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaestroUK Posted July 29, 2005 Share Posted July 29, 2005 Yeah, I really liked this show. I saw it when it was first aired in the UK by the BBC, back in 96/97 I think. I already knew it had been cancelled stateside though but was still disappointed to see that it only got 1 series. It deserved better imho. I think I really liked the 'Top Gun in space' & the 'Platoon' aspects of it. It was a bit more gritty and mucky and I liked that. The FX were really good too. Movie quality. I especially recall the cartwheeling space fighter during some desert planet attack scene. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawth Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 Yup - thought it was good - so good I got all the episodes. If anyone wants a copy, let me know - I do all in .avi or, I have converted the episodes onto 6 DVDR's. I can do a torrent for either. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrazyMan Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 Yes it was a very good show and I for one wish they didnt take it off the air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cypha01 Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 Another great one-season wonder.. shame it didnt at least get a few more seasons. I thought it was pretty solid for the most part, these networks LIKE canceling good shows dont they... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
voltron666 Posted August 7, 2005 Share Posted August 7, 2005 Remember it? Only reason I finally ended up, years of waiting for it to come out on dvd, haunting the boards to trying and get an avi and et voila! Nite fixes me up sweeeet! Would've loved to see what was going to happen in season 2 though ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S0V13T Posted August 7, 2005 Share Posted August 7, 2005 I grabbet the S:AAB torrent a week or so ago, and have been watching it again. My Brother and I used to watch this show a lot back in 'the day', thanks so much for it :) Does S:AAB remind anyone else of the new BSG at all, or is it just me?

bpd1069 Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 I watched all the episodes season 1 and 2, in one day... I really was impressed with the style of the show in the first season, but there was a clear shift in the writing for season 2. At that point It seemed as if the writing became typical and formulaic (sp?)... The second season was either a desperate attempt of increasing viewership, that failed, or the result of a psychotic focus group. In either case if you chose to revist the series watch the seasons seperately.. seems like two seperate shows... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikatelo Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 Was there ever Season 2 of the show? Afaik, there is only one season of 24 episodes... SOV13T, SAAB has some similarities to the BG - just replace Cylons with Chigs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starcrunch Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 I remember that this show was on tv at the same time Earth 2 came out, I'm not sure if they were on the same network or not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenebrae Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 It was an interesting mixture of ideas... I think it was good in idea if not execution. It was a bit much that the people were elite fighter pilots AND marines. A bit much... and it could have done with more detail but compared to most of the stuff out there, it was pretty enjoyable.

Wazer Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 Yeah I remeber now I just looked it up. I didn't think it was a bad show but wasn't really on long enough to really go anywhere. Sometimes hard in Australia to know if shows were axed or they kept going but didn't rate well enough here. I do remember it was a bit gung ho but hard to compare to Star Trek only set in 2063 not 3-400 years into future. One interesting thing I noticed was Tucker Smallwood who played Commodore Glen Ross has been in a lot of similar Sci Fi including Enterprise (Xindi Primate), Deep Impact, Contact and even Babylon 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenebrae Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 Hardly unusual - once you get into the sci-fi niche, you'll see that actors get a whole lot of reusing. I mean, just look at the Farscape/Andromeda/Stargate cross-pollination. Basically, American Network television and sci-fi tends to be hugely efficient at recycling these actors.
