I'm giving it 5 stars for nostalgia. I watched it during it's original run in the 70's. It was a big deal for my brothers and I. It doesn't hold up very well. The memory cheats sometimes. You remember things better than they were. With Space:1999 it committed grand larceny. The science is horrible. The moon is somehow traveling faster than light. In the episode Dragon's Domain, Dr. Russell informs us that they are currently BETWEEN GALAXIES. Did the writer confuse solar systems with galaxies? That would be very bad. I don't think the writer did. That is also very bad. Season two is better. In the second season our heroes discovered colors other than white and beige. They also have a big screen which they call the big screen. I'm currently watching it (and enjoying it) for what it is. Fun. It's not Star Trek. It's not even Star Trek the Animated Series. It's Space: $19.99
