Summary: Something a bit different
Review: Well, I wondered when I'd come across this series again. I met the producer and some of the actors at a party at BaltiCon a few years ago. They were really interested in the SF community's input and I think they even redid one of the shows based on what we told them. This series is a lot of fun. It's refreshing because it's not a gag-a-minute type show like Red Dwarf or Hitchhiker's Guide. It depends more on characters and situations for its humor and likes to lampoon some "sci-fi" clichés. More Sharyn McCrumb than Douglas Adams. Good points: premise, sound effects, choice of stories. Bad points: some characters need to be more 3-dimensional.
