nc…, Maya? Space:1999?? Dating yourself and picking a a scantily clad alien waif.
I recall liking that show, too. Missed the first half season serving overseas.
However, it was kinda farfetched… as quickly as they ran into aliens and other planets.
I agree, got a little “out there” in a hurry.
But for the time period, just a couple years after Star Trek went off the air, it was so technically superior…
And let’s face it, those Eagles were pretty sweet :-)
And yes, Maya the “alien waif” was a true hottie :-) Fine, I’ll date myself :-P
