    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    Its quiet good scifi, tense and fairly intelligent alien visitation series.

    Space Above and Beyond

    Excellent but sadly cancelled scifi series that made it to the end of a first season but not to a second. In away very much a proto Battlestar Galactica (re-imagined series) but SAB was the right show at the wrong time so got axed

    That's why I tend to avoid these American serials. Either they get cancelled in the middle of a run or after the first two seasons it begins to become too obvious that the writers are making it up as they go along whilst introducing new characters and plotlines based on audience surveys/demographics.
    Current Lash Up:

    TEAC VRDS 701T > Sony TAE1000ESD > Krell KSA50S > Troels Gravesen Faital 3WC-15.

    Nice one - I paid at least £20 for the copy I got and that was in a sale.

    I hear you and I hate investing time in something that might get axed but a little magic is often better than none and Space Above and Beyond was very good just the studio didn't run with it - despite folks involved in the X Files being behind it.

    I started watching the Last Ship the other night and enjoyed it and I have high hopes for it as I do The Strain which is due to start next week on Watch in the UK.


    Regards Neil
