    I remember seeing this show as a teenager. It was stylish and entertaining with an excellent title theme. Maybe that's the operative word here: entertainment. Something many of the present-day shows don't quite seem to deliver anymore, in my opinion anyway, without taking themselves too seriously.

Of course it's dated by today's standards, but it was so way ahead of it's time. Let's not forget this is nearly 50 years old!

    Long before the masterpiece that is Breaking Bad, UFO was the first "novelistic" series I ever saw. You got the whole backstory on how things began, you got an extensive look at the hero's tragic personal life and the series ended with an array of battles with the aliens, which left us with much haunting food for thought. The fact the beginnings can be edited into something like this or that the series can be drawn upon to edit together an effective movie like "Invasion:UFO" is a tribute to how well it all integrated to tell one story.

      Absolutely! While I do love Space:1999, I think Gerry Anderson should've fought for another season of UFO, even if he had to take a budget cut. Some of the cheapest episodes, shot on location with a small cast and relying on voice overs to expedite production, were among the best (Timelash and Long Sleep, for example) and I think Straker was complex enough to carry more screen time. Even if Moonbase and Skydiver were reduced to a few appearances from stock footage, a second season, to develop Straker and the characters even further, would have been very welcome.

    The episode I remember most is the one where his child was hit by a car (because Straker was arguing with his ex wife and John runs out to give him the picture he drew and gets hit). Straker can either get the medicine to his son that would save his life, or prevent an invasion- your child or the world. It explained why Straker was so aloof - he couldn’t face losing the people he loved again. As a kid the first time I watched this, I think it was the first time I realized that parenthood could have a terrible price - your child or the world? It’s a really good episode “A Question of Priorities.”

    Does everybody remember "Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons" that was also created by Gerry and Sylvia Anderson and also starred Ed Bishop as Captain Blue? During the show's intro, a machine gun, filmed from the vantage point of an assassin, attempts to kill Captain Scarlet. Now, in this first episode of "UFO," we have a similar scene: A machine gun, filmed from the vantage point of an alien, shoots three people that have witnessed a UFO landing. If I didn't know better, I would say the similar scenes are meant to show a subtle connection between the two programs.

      In its earliest concept, Space 1999 was supposed to be a continuation of UFO. In their bid to defeat SHADO, the aliens try to destroy the SHADO moonbase by destroying the moon. SHADO halfway succeeds in stopping them, but the moon gets knocked out of Earth's orbit and sent hurtling through space. When Star Wars was in development and more hardliners scifi was becoming popular, GA decided to develop Space 1999 as an independent concept with less "fantastic" storylines. That was season 1. And we all know what happened in season 2...

    As a child I enjoyed watching this show. My imagination built it's own story line around this concept. Watching this makes the struggling writer in me wish I could get the rights and continue the tale. Not a reboot, not a remake. Pick up the tale now or maybe ten years in the future. SHADO. A tale of a shadow world wide organization protecting the Earth. Unfortunately some entity in Hollywood will properly end up re-imagining and UFO will not be what we like here. Nothing but Pew Pew Pew. This show was character driven, thought provoking something they don't want now a day. My feelings is anyone here could do a better job. Why? because you have passion for your show, a love that an outsider will not grasp. You all want something entertaining with action for the story sake not for action sake. A story that tugs at the emotions, make you care and identify with each character. A story that may even make you stop, think and wonder about your own opinions and beliefs. And of course an enemy that you may be identify with. Can we real call the Aliens evil? Couldn't we end up like them faced with the same situation? That is one of the many things this show could touch upon. (And part of my idea with a new story line would include humans working with the Aliens for the promise of immortality. After all who was feeding the UFOs information?) Well enough ramblings, but I would love to hear others ideas on where this story line could go.

    • @FandersonUfo
      @FandersonUfo  7 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      There were plans to begin a second season set ten years later on an expanded moon base but the American network geniuses got a hold of that and decided to forget about UFO's and let's have the moon blast out of earth orbit. There was some pre-production work done for a feature film based on this series about 10 years ago. After Gerry Anderson passed away that is unlikely to happen now. Such a great concept as a series or film. It wipes the floor of all the glossy over-produced under-storied junk that most sci-fi is becoming.

    ​This Handley Page twin-turboprop is a sweetheart. It was used in the opening pre-title sequence of the J. Bond vehicle "Moonraker." So much more classier than any twin-jet aircraft. Thinking of getting one just to spend time in its amazing interior. Even if it never leaves the ground. ​

    I watched this on Italian TV when I was a little kid in the early 70's. Great show that had a futuristic look like no other of the time. (In retrospect it also has that retro groovy 60's look). The stories were great and the look still holds up pretty well. And I love the outfits on the moon base with the purple wigs. But watching it now, there seems to be some obvious Thunderbirds rehash that they would have been better off not doing. And BTW, the moon base never made sense to me as an early interception spot because the moon was in orbit so half the time it would be further away from Earth than from wherever the UFOs were coming from. Too bad they didn't make more of it.

      Most people no matter their age would not realize that about moonbase unless they were into astronomy. Most people have no idea how far away is the moon.

    Ha! I remember watching some of this series back when I was in high school, in the late 60s. Fun to see it again and in color, no less, as we only had B&W at home.

    The UFO attack on General Henderson's car is practically identical to the helicopter attack on Admiral Nelson's car on on the first episode of 'Voyage to the bottom of the sea'.
