- I've always heard Blake's 7 treated as a slightly harder science fiction
- series. It dealt with some pretty adult themes, wasn't abonimably bad in the
- special effects department, and had some good actors and writers. Generally,
- it was mentioned as a very serious show. High quality press...

- Although - What's wrong with "MARS NEEDS WOMEN NOW!!!" type stuff?

- Keep watching the skies - I'll be there...
