I had many toys and models from the show (still have my Dinky eagle). The music from both seasons was great. Also, desktop visors(?) would make their way onto Drax's space station in Moonraker.

What an appropriate day for this one. I’m on a bit of a Space:1999 kick because now Season 1 makes sense. I first saw this on AFN in Germany. In fall 1984 AFN showed this on Saturday mornings at 0730. I was rather young then but I didn’t get it. (I was only reminded of it as a college student, when I was taking notes in class on Monday - September 13, 1999, when I thought to myself “this was the day they always mention in the opening of that show, Space:1999 - why?” It was much later that I blundered into the show’s premise. Forty years after I first heard of it, in a restless night in DC, on the road, Space:1999 popped up on my YT feed. I was like “what the hell”. The first episode I saw since 1984 was “Missing Link” - “what were they on when they made this?” I wondered. Then, “Guardian of Piri”. The light switch came on. I Got It. Unlike when I was a kid. So I got into Season 1 in a huge way. My take: it’s like Star Trek, without all the damn homework. (I could never get into Star Trek.) In 1984, as a kid, I did like the Eagles. I still do. 😎

I find that one of the most amusing aspects of this show is the opening credits, at which they edit together split-second takes of performers moving about or doing something Action-specific, to give the upcoming episode the feel of a fast-paced American adventure series. A feel belied by the actual episodes, which tended towards being more sedate and thoughtful.

However, even as an 8-year old watching it during its first runs, I was always perplexed that they were excited about possible life on Meta and being able to go there as the rogue planet passed by our solar system. But then, once they started encountering and engaging with other life on future episodes, they were so nonchalant about it.

As a kid, I watched this show every week, desperately hoping it would get better, or at least make sense. Many years later, I bought an episode on DVD for my older brother as a joke. It was one we had laughed at hysterically when it first aired. The moon gets an atmosphere, and Koenig and Victor go over to a window to watch Alphans playing outside in their regular uniforms. Then Victor presses a button near the window and it slides open so they can small the fresh air. The idea that a moon base was designed with windows that could be opened by the press of a button that could easily have been accidentally bumped was so funny to us that we remembered it 20 years later. Thanks for another great video. Looking forward to more, and please show the clip of Victor opening the window. 😂

For me the first season is beautiful the cinematography, the very clever set design, the art direction in general - it was an extraordinarily well-shot dumb show. (Watch the opening sequence to ‘the troubled spirit’ for a fine example) and in the second season, this was all pretty much gone. Static camera setups, not much motion, the more interesting shot compositions gone, and while the sets *could* be rejiggered, they seldom were. The first season was cinematic, the second season was kinda generic, with a few exceptions. I give the show mad props for making Alpha feel like a real place, since we saw so much of it, frequently just one time. In the second season it felt more like studio sets, but the first season is pretty remarkable in evoking a sense of “place” that most shows struggle and fail to do

Tony is a CIA operative doing the agency's bidding on the international moon base. Victor is the inventor of artificial gravity, the technology of which malfunctions and sends the moon out of orbit. Koenig has an "earth wife" and a "moon wife" (Helena), which displeases both. Alan is a former RAAF F-18 pilot who once bested Koenig in a "Top Gun" shootout.

My memory of this series can be summed up with: I liked the Eagle ship (everyone had that Dinky toy back in the day, and they hung around for years and years in toy chests) but the ships weren't featured enough; the clothes were really 70's, and made the show look incredibly dated when I watched it in the 80's; every plot seemed to be - aliens taking over people's minds, or plagues killing people in horrendous ways. What I don't remember about it at all... is fun. And for a kid watching a sci-fi show that was a killer. It was a slow, depressing, dated looking show, featuring well-past middle-age people being unhappy on a moon base.

Despite being in my 50's and a lover of Doctor Who and Star Trek etc. I can barely watch Space:1999 and find it incomprehensible and boring. However I really enjoyed this recap and look forward to Part Two.

I suspect Victor Bergman lied on his CV when applying for the role of Chief Science Officer as his stock answer to Koenig's question "What do you think it is Victor?" is nearly always "Well, I don't know John..."

Bergman also specialised in baffling "explanations". "You know, John, I think it is not what it was when we first realised that it isn't what think it is now. It's that simple"

As an American, I always preferred season 1.

The first season's theme music makes me think of a horde of blokes bouncing down a high street on space hoppers

It was shown on Granada on a Friday about 6.30pm. "Force of Life" was shown second so you can imagine the effect the ending had on me at a young age! There is a chronology to the 1st series, and what I didn't pick up on the first time but have done on later viewings is the inference that there is something influencing events. Look forward to seeing your future videos on the episodes.

Hey man patches were ahead of their time. Bomber jackets in the 80's yeah.

How about a companion show which describes what the Earth would be like without tides, let alone the effects of removing the moon's gravity circus from the lives of everybody and everything on our planet? We'd have it far worse off than the unfortunate denizens of Moon Base Alpha.

When I was a young teen I preferred season 2, rewatching as an adult season one is much better.

Another favourite series of mine and I watch it often. Not as many yelling at the screen moments as Blakes 7 (another favourite) but it still sometimes feels like an abusive love/hate relationship sometimes. Lots of great episodes in season 1. I always thought the episode with Roy Dotrice and Christopher Lee was particularly brutal in how he got his comeuppance. Looking forward to the episode by episode breakdown.
