I was 4 when this first came out and remember the theme music just freaked the crap outta me. I also remember the vastness of the ship and all those sections waiting to be explored. It wasn't until the late 1980s that I finally figured out what the show was called and now own the complete series...I watch the entire thing every year...love it.Scottnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3893206653438189717.post-45682685728304992642011-04-12T04:06:20.232-04:002011-04-12T04:06:20.232-04:00Full marks to VCI for putting the series out.

The model of the Ark is pretty cool, with interesting details that are hard to see on screen with the way it was filmed.I'l always remember the theme music too, being 70's cool and wanting to see more of the secrets that the idea of the show contained. The website http://www.snowcrest.net/fox/star.html has behind the scenes pics of many of the models and miniature sets. these photos show much more detail to them or models that never had the chance to be seen. Still worth a look as something different and really an idea that could still be done again.Briannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3893206653438189717.post-24587747483565524472011-03-31T01:45:45.572-04:002011-03-31T01:45:45.572-04:00I too remember this from my adolesence, and while ...I too remember this from my adolesence, and while it had its drawbacks (even noticeable to me at the time), I LOVED the concept. A few years back, I read the novel and found a terrific website devoted to the show, but with money being what it is these days, I've had to keep putting off getting the DVDs.

I enjoy Ellison's writing, but not always his remarks or taste, that said though, I do have trouble with the concept of a ark or space station traveling in space, and nobody ever bumping into the edge or wall of the ship?? Seems odd to me. Neat concept though.El Voxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05985563041511492981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3893206653438189717.post-45407590030409101662011-03-27T21:35:16.348-04:002011-03-27T21:35:16.348-04:00I remember this one from my childhood.

When I was in my teens they started re-running it on cable and I was amazed at how crappy it looked in reality as opposed to how spectacular it was in my mind. I added so many elements that didn't exist. It was one of the first times I realized how great my imagination was.Kalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00663751053844271849noreply@blogger.com
