You don't like Devil's Planet.....? What's not to like? True the plot is kinda lame, but I'd love to be chased by sexy women in Flash Gordon costumes with whips. Plus it's one of the few episodes where we get to watch Commander Koenig bare-knuckle a whole beavy of bad actresses. Even Kirk on his best day never did that!  |

I like Devil's Planet because the chicks look hot but the story is lame. Brian the Brain, pulls vacuum on a screen door it's so bad. I can't decide if the voice or the dialog is worse. It wreaks of a poorly done 2001 rip off of HAL. It is so predictiable anyone could guess what the outcome will be and how it will unfold. I hate this episode beyond what words can describe. |

I guess Eagle One and I see eye to eye on this one. Probably because, like me, I'm betting he had a thing for Wonder Woman back in the 70's. Am I right?  Gotta love ladies in skin tight outfits. |

Of course! How did you guess...Linda Carter  |

I knew it! What young man in the 70's didn't dream of being tied up by Wonder Woman and forced to tell the truth?  I didn't think I was alone. Linda Carter still looks good after all these years in those Lenscrafter commercials. |

Brian the Brain really isn't that bad -- the story is fairly solid as Y2 stories go. Even though I went thru all of Y2 on DVD last year, I had forgotten some of the ones people mentioned -- All the Glisters is bad as is Rules of Luton. The Taybor isn't too bad if you like the "comedy" of it, but I didn't so I would group that in my bottom 5, too. As for Y1, Ring Around the Moon would have to be my least favorite -- but it doesn't make it that bad, just least favorite. I can watch RATM -- some of the Y2 ones I wouldn't bother. As was said, RATM could have been better, but better than most of Year 2 by far. Full Circle -- it's a decent episode. I always enjoy even though for the crappiest line of the entire series "Alan's down there with a ray gun." Yuck. As for changing into cavemen -- it's TV sci-fi/fantasy -- not that unbelieveable. Perhaps the fog created an ILLUSION that people had regressed to cavemen? I dunno, but I still like it. |

I actually enjoy "Full Circle". The premise is incredibly stupid, but watching Sandra in animal skins showed me that in her own way she's actually kinda sexy. I also laugh at poor Matin Landau in that dreadful wig having to mug the camera. Full Circle also reminds me of the very best episode of the original Outer Limits called The Sixth Finger. It tackled the subject of evolution and was a facinating episode, even if the special effects seem ridiculous by todays standards. |

My worst would have to be "Catacombs of the Moon". Even Dr. Russell's hypothesis explaining Patrick Osgood's condition at the end of the episode seems like a stab-in-the-dark diagnosis. | ||

 The only episode I didn't like was "Devils Planet". I can't really tell you why either but the women in that were just ICKY.......... They were really bad role models, bitches in heat, Barbie Dolls gone insane. I cringe just thinking about it. I think this episodes is just nasty!!!!! Did the writer just get a divorce, what was HE thinking it had to be a HE!!!! Was he fulfilling a sexual fantasy. The "Devils Planet" was for men  |

The only thing I like in such an episode is that John Koenig is a foreigner.Then he is the only one who can survive during "teleportation". So he gets stronger than the women and the prisonners. F-9000 |

"Devil's planet" is a pity... Agreed with Loveclassics, it's only for men!!! |

You mean you don't "swing" that way, Cindy? Pity..... |

| Cindy 20 Mar 2003 00:58:13 |
I mean it's awful... Only Koenig, no story and a lot of bitches... |

| Validus 20 Mar 2003 06:38:02 |
Well.....hey, I like "lots of bitches". But that's just me, I can't speak for the other guys. | ||
| Loveclassics 20 Mar 2003 07:00:47 |
 Maybe I shouldn't have used the term "bitches" maybe SHE DEVILS would have been better. I wouldn't want to insult my Basset Hound Polly. |

Of course. I'm sorry Loveclassics, but I am french and I haven't a lot of vocabulary!!! | ||
| Eagle One 21 Mar 2003 02:11:19 |
LOL, me too as I mentioned before this is one of my favorite episodes. I think the lead bitch is actually crosseyed. Guess I've looked at that episode a few times too many. My wife refuses to what Devils Planet. |

Sorry, I prefere Alan Carter without T-shirt in "the last sunset", but that 's just me!!! |

 Well, and Dorzak? Don't you think her female guardians are pretty? I like Shaala and Yesta : they wear Greek dresses! Ther's nothing obsene in this episode. However, Maya does not transform into a giant frog or a ridiculous alien but in a little mouse! F-9000 |

Hands down, it's ROL. Trees that offed the animals (especially pollinating insects??), and can transmit color pictures onto a black and white screen. Oh yeah, totally realistic. Of course, TMOA, with it's hammy acting, comes in a verrrrrrrrrry close second. |
