Subject: Space1999: Y2: Top/Bottom Five (+ OT Maya)
Hello Alphans,
It took me a few days to complete this, as I've actually been able to spend
only a little sporadic time on my home computer the last few days, and only
a fraction of that in mail, so while the original thread has faded away as
I chipped away, I'll still mention my top five and bottom five of Y2, all
in my opinion of course, with a grab bag of what I feel to be the best or
worst elements (probably missing some major points, but I think I'll hold
back on full scale analysis for this post, and save that for later, perhaps
;-)
I still have to get back to a few people, but I think this will have to be
my only post of the night (do I hear sighs of relief? :-)
Funny, but in my 16 months on this list, I can't ever remember posting my
top/bottom five from the series, or if I did, it was a simple list with no
explanation. Seems I still have things to talk about. Doesn't *that* just
make you all cringe?
<G>
First, my favorites (not really in firm rank order, except the first):
1) "The Metamorph": My favorite of the series (Y1&2), and one of my
favorite episodes of any series. Mentor, who allowed himself to turn a
beautiful goal into a warped, evil, methodology. His presense, tied with a
biological but soulless computer threaded through the caverns, the planet,
and into space; his catching ships, people, wrapping them up and carrying
them from place to place and then sucking them dry--not unlike a spider. A
planet full of people and things that are rarely what they seem, and keep
changing in front of the Alphans' eyes ("You Psychons are full of fun and
games"). Koenig forced to deceive everyone, including his own people, to
make a terrible order. Tony carrying through on that soul-twistingly
difficult order. Maya's naivete and innocent games against a backdrop of
terror she barely sees, much less recognizes. Her going to the caves to
disprove and totally put Koenig's accusations fully out of her mind, only
to discover, to her horror, that Koenig wasn't lying; then to return,
obviously changed, only to be further shocked at her father's senseless
bombing of Alpha. The touching scene at the end: Maya helped with what
amounted to the destruction of her home world, is now trapped with aliens,
crying in shock and fear.
2) "Bringers of Wonder": A lot of interesting elements in this one. I
loved the sheer difference between what the Alphans *thought* they were
seeing (Earth people) and what the "people" actually were (huge pulsating
globs of ooze!). It was all the more believable for how the aliens didn't
just deceive in general, but got all the little details--and not just the
*facts* of Alphans' pasts, but the emotional subtleties of not only the
backgrounds (brothers, fiances, old flames, colleagues, etc.), but
convincing emotional reactions to current things, however small (e.g. the
apparent surprise and curiosity in Tony's "brother" towards Maya when she
walks in). IMO, this episode was excellent, plot- and character-wise, and
the second part is as strong as the first, which is often not the case with
multi-part episodes.
3) "Dorzak": How low can a people go? Maya, shot for no apparent reason,
the rest of the Alphans think, only to find there is a reason. Maya,
overjoyed at finally meeting another Psychon for the first time in years,
baffled by her friends' less than enthusiastic rejoinder. A philosopher, a
poet, driven to behavior as reprehensible as Maya's father's, displaying a
horrifying talent at driving people mad, and using them. Dorzak, violating
Maya's mind for her metamorphic ability, and putting her "on ice," as it
were, for later use, it seems. Mentor used Psychon minds and bodies too.
How low can a people go? Maya, driven to even more doubts about her own
Psychon people, and having to put on a mask of humor at the end to hide her
pain. The episodes never clarified what happened to the rest of the
Psychons; but on the other hand, that left plenty of speculative
possibilities open.
4) "The Dorcons": when terror comes prepackaged. With scarcely any
preamble, Maya is plunged into horror upon recognition of an old
enemy--made worse for how, lost from the defenses of her own people, she is
essentially helpless, caught among people who have no idea the vile intent
her enemy has for her, and how coldly the Dorcons will carry it out (yet
there are some moments of human compassion, such as when the Archon spares
a moment's sadness for Maya). A son's lust for power that he was fated to
never enjoy--and never deserved. Another instance where Maya's presense
becomes detrimental to the base, and where some would coldly cast her off
to her fate. Others fight for her, and Koenig finds the crack to wedge
himself into, carrying out principles that demand you fight for your own,
as far as you can; after all, if you start handing over your own people at
the slightest whim, where will it end?
5) "New Adam, New Eve": manipulation from the outside always seemed to be
the consistent fate of the Alphans. This time, the individual has the gall
to call himself no less than God Himself. But after all their experiences,
John is especially leary, quite unimpressed with the show--almost jaded, it
seems. But this "god" did not create life--he just wanted the secret, and
would go through any means to get it. And what an opportunity Alpha
presented. Fresh genes, of no less than two species/races, and four
individuals with particularly strong and interesting traits. And was Maya
really compatible, or would Magus have twisted hers and/or John's genes
somehow to make it so? It seems he had figured at least a few small pieces
of the puzzle, given the twisted, defeated people left on the planet who so
welcomed death. Great characterization among all the main
characters--regulars or guests.
These are some of the things I personally happened to find intriguing about
Y2.
Honorable mention?
Though it didn't make my top five, and isn't necessarily #6, I did actually
like "The Taybor" on the level of humor, and for Catherine's especially
wonderful and sexy performance in this one (didn't like the robot head
scene though--ggggaaaccckkk). I found it an amusing romp, without being as
flat out silly as "Brian the Brain" (though I still enjoyed that one some
too). Didn't like the goofy trade card of Taybor's, even when I decided
that whatever Babel-fish like capacity the Alphans had might have extended
to writing as well (well, maybe not). Not good drama, certainly, but I do
like some variety.
Dishonorable mention?
IMO, "Immunity Syndrome" started strong and had a lot of interesting
elements and cool stuff (e.g. the glider trip), it went downhill (no pun
intended) right at the end. Though the glider trip was great, and I could
understand Maya's and Helena's wanting to go to the planet, it still made
no command sense, and their presense on the planet really didn't help. The
alien, though intriguing in its loneliness, didn't entirely work for some
reason I can't quite place my finger on now. A strong episode for awhile,
but one that left me very disappointed in the end. Not in the bottom five,
and not necessarily #19 either, it instead receives a "dishonorable
mention," if you will, for what I thought was a disappointing last quarter.
My least favorites (order semi-approximate except for bottom two)
20) "The Lambda Factor": Wierd psychic powers run amuck, bestowed by some
hideously fake looking rotating disk or beach ball phenomenon thingy. <G>
Reminds me of Y1's "Ring Around the Moon", and really didn't work any
better here than this sort of thing did there, I'm afraid. It had some
good scenes though. Maya being forced to turn into a monkey and then
caterpillar in front of Tony, and his being forced to call Carolyn
"Commander"--Carolyn making monkeys out of both of them, I guess. Some
background to Koenig helped add something as well. :-)
21) "Devil's Planet": whip-wielding women jailers, male prisoners,
freedom of speech, dead home world, but the people on the moon keep letting
their own numbers die in now pointless gestures, etc. A few interesting
elements; but most seemed random, and it didn't hang together well
(probably like my own comments in this note!).
22) "Mark of Archanon": curious twist ending, the premise of which I
could never really accept even with "suspension of disbelief" mode on.
Anyone notice the ancient Assyrian-like style to the alien clothing? (no
opinion, just commenting) Some moments of suspense. Had its moments but
generally bored me.
23) "One Moment of Humanity": had a few moments--very few (mostly on the
Moon anyway). The whole stilted seduction scene was way bizarre and
completely over the top, and even worse, didn't even have any "camp" value
to smile at, IMO. An episode that makes me cringe to even think about, for
the most part.
24) "Catacombs of the Moon": bizarre, pointless. Collages of dream
images, heat storms, fires, and so on, etc., ad nauseum. Brief appearance
by Maya that even I found fairly pointless (costume wasn't bad, though ;-)
Doesn't even engage me enough to cringe--just shake my head, shrug, and
move on. Worst episode of the whole series, IMO.
I just didn't happen to like these episodes. Perhaps not coincidentally,
three of these five (#21, 22, 24) were those "doubled up" episodes that had
the "half cast" problem (where some of the main cast members are "missing"
from the episode or make only brief appearances). I'm not sure having a
full cast would have necessarily helped these three episodes, but it
couldn't have hurted. Only one "half cast" episode ("Dorzak") made my top
five, and that one was only missing Koenig, rather than two or more main
characters.
Oh well, enough for now. Take it as one person's opinions.
....
Now, for something entirely different. A bunch of new series have come out
in the U.S., and among several I've had the chance to check out, I happened
to watch a new comedy series premiering on NBC called "Just Shoot Me." I
was quite surprised to find the main character, played by Laura San
Giacomo, is named Maya. I hear that name extremely little outside S19, so
it was funny to hear it repeatedly in another context.
Now you know why I had an "OT" label when mentioning "Maya" in the title
line...
....
Well, that's all for tonight. Have a pleasant day, everyone!
Eagle Four Out.

Hey Brian
I read your post and it made me think of another episode that troubles
me. I think it's Space Warp. At the begginnign Helena says something
to the effect of Maya sick and John and Tony are going to check out
some dead ship to see if it might be connected to her being ill.
Anyway next scene Maya getting really sick and she asks for Tony so
Helena calls them up and asks how long they're going to be. Anyway it
seems to me that the two males have no clue that Maya is ill. As a
matter of fact when they finally return they seem to have completely
forgotten.
OK it's a petty point in the realm of things but it's late.
Later

Hear, that, folks?
What a rare find! The chance to have previously unavailable 1999 music
on your own, hand-numbered, personalized CD is now a reality.
Provided that the tape is of suitable quality (and I have no reason to
doubt Greg's word), the transfer to DAT could be done in a minimum of
time. The master CD would soon follow, and from there copies could be
banged out like nobody's business.
Respond ye, all who are interested! As I stated previously, I estimate
an absolute max cost of $30 per copy. The major investment is in making
a suitable master CD, and so the more interest we've got, the cheaper
each subsequent CD will be.

Subject: Space1999: Request a VOTE on "Reply"
Here ye, here ye, all Alphans.
I propose a vote on whether to keep the current "REPLY" button status
or go back to the old method.
CURRENT: You hit reply and your message is sent back to the group at
the Buffnet address.
FORMER: You hit reply and your message is sent back to the author of
the post you wish to reply to.
My position:
If you have an E-mail address book you've probably got the S1999 group
listed in it for your outbound messages. You don't have the address
for every member including all the newbies.
Too many private posts followed up by an apology post. We are told
"Respond to E-mails privately, don't post it to the group", but this
is not making it easy to do that.
It has been suggested to "Reply to all" and delete the group. This
does not work for some members, myself included. When I hit "Reply to
all" I not only get "space1999@Buffnet.net", but my CC lines has the
"space1999@Buffnet4.Buffnet.net". No where do I get the original
author address. Unless I write it down and type it in manually.
Talking with other members in private E-mail about this I find I'm not
the only one who dislikes the new method.
NOW IS THE TIME ALPHANS. Rise up and be counted. Unlike the original
series YOU CAN determine the course of Alpha. Let your voices be
heard. Vote for me.............no, no, no, (sorry, got carried away).
Vote for you! Vote for your sanity! Vote for the "Reply" feature
that best suits your needs. And, hopefully it's the same a mine. But
if not, then fine, be that way! I'll just sit down here in the Alpha
Water Department manually typing in E-mail addresses.
Thank you for your attention.
Assuming you got down to this point.

Hmmm, I'm all for the idea of a vote I'm just not sure we're all giving this
new reply format enough time. How about waiting another 3 weeks and then
having a vote. By then perhaps more people will be used to the new format.
One other thing though, on some lists using my software (Eudora Lite) I can
hit reply while holding down send and that gives me the address of the
poster AND the list it came in one. I notice our new system doesn't have
this option(I get the list address twice). Is that a possibility?
Of course if I'm the only member who has this feature in their software its
not a big deal.
For now it hasn't been a problem, if I find myself replying to a member more
than a couple of times in the course of a week off the list I create an
address for them in my book anyway. ALso cutting and pasting soesn't take
that much time. Unless its for 5-10 posts its not an inconvenience for me.

Hi, kids!
I've been on mailing lists for about 5 years, and I've ran
mailing lists for two....here's my opinions:
With the current: Doing this makes life easier for newer users
of the Internet, who want to post a lot to the list....it
also invites people to spam the list in a way.
With the former: You end up having people like me who will
"Group Reply", ending up sending two copies out when replying
to postings, one to the original sender, and the other to
the list itself....giving two copies to the original sender.
I run *my* mailing lists with the "former"...but it's been
quite a raging argument over on the other list as to
which of these would be better.....
I like the former, but that's just me....they both
have their good points and their bad.

Then double-click in the To... field and then Ctrl + V (paste from

Hope that helps, but if you don't have Netscape mabey it didn't.

Put me down for a CD. (WHEN I READ THAT POST TOO
I THOUGHT, PLEASE BE TRUE! YOU ARE TRUE!!!

Also, in an unrelated affair, I was watching an old
OUTER LIMITS, "The Man Who Was Never Born"
when my profitless, but real talent, kicked in. I can
recall even the face of alot of actors; especially bit
actors, an any age, from TV shows over the years.
Even if they were only on the tube for a moment or
two. Anyway, the young astronaut in ACT I of that
OUTER LIMITS who doesn't make it back to through
the time portal....well, if you go to the episode of
YR 2 1999 called "Immunity Syndrome", he is the one
who keeps trying to get into the solar paneled door
lodged under earth and moss, and says things like
"Is it true what they're saying about Tony. Ya'know,
that he's cracked-up" (Alan then quips "I don't know,
go ask a doctor!!!) Damnit Jim! Anyway, its him. Funny
to see him pop up again with Martin. I never saw this
guy again in anything else. I don't have time now to
pull that OUTER LIMITS tape, so if anyone's interested
e-mail me and I'll look it up later, although it wouldn't
surprise me if Robby The Ruiz Robot in San Fran
already doesn't know the answer. How about it Bob?

Subject: Space1999: Cheaper CD?
Given the fact there are probably only a few dozen people who would
pay for a Year 1 CD (just guessing) does it make sense to go through
a hard-tooled manufacturing setup? These quantities might be best
produced via CD-R now that the media is only $4 or $5 each.
Just a suggestion. That's what the Chief Engineer does best.
Make suggestions. :)

I don't think so...I checked the credits on both eps, and I didn't
see any repeated names....
