Amazing how the votes are going on the Favorite UFO episode poll.
I was torn between my two faves -Timelash and The Man Who Came Back.. but some of the episodes that didn't make the grade suprised me. I WAS very happy to see Confetti Check-AOK NOT get any votes even though it has the set up of SHADO background plotline. This and that tearjerker episode Question Of Priorities-boo hoo hoo-was more soap opera stuff...Mary-what a real pain she was...I sometimes wish it was her and that jerk of a new husband...Rutland...that got hit by the car instead of Johnny...geez, I have to stay off the caffine..... |

LOL! Well, I can't say I agree with your assesment of those two great Straker episodes, but your views on the Screecher woman are right on!!

I also sometimes get weary of stories that seem to consist largely of overwrought screaming emotions and no action. In England there is a slang word "waterworks" for an excess of tear-jerking or weeping in stories. Also I have little patience with the sort of story that consists largely of one of these:- (1) Tinkling teacups and polite conversation. (2) Ordinary everyday real-world stuff such as is routinely all round me and in the newspapers. That makes the story too much of a "busman's holiday". |

I have to agree with this. CC-AOK has got to be my
least favorite episode. I never could understand why everyone seemed to like it so much. -j --- [hidden email] wrote: > Amazing how the votes are going on the Favorite UFO > episode poll. > I was torn between my two faves -Timelash and The > Man Who Came Back.. > but some of the episodes that didn't make the grade > suprised me.

Yeah Yuccy that was what I would say too. I do feel that the eps like CC AOK and Aqop do give insights and depth to the characters. Not forgetting the scene when Ed climbs the gate. oh the was he flicks his fringe back with a toss of his head ah kerplop! Sheila Still UFO Crazy crazy crazy crrraaazzzzy! |

Oh Jim, make me one, too;-) You know, it is a rather interesting thought that the episode which relates how SHADO (not this mailing list) got up and running was one of the more schmaltzier episodes. Hmmm, is that one of the reasons UFO appeals to me? The people making the show were obviously not afraid to turn this episode into a soap opera. After watching the likes of Mr Spock and Dr McCoy (and don't get me wrong, I kneel at their feet, bless their cotton socks), all 26 episodes of UFO were a total shock to my system. I loved it. Surely watching UFO released some sort of chemical in my brain to produce seratonin or something? -- Suzanne Sutherland Give me chocolate or give me Death |

It made (for me) the series more real and gave Straker's character more depth as well. I hated that one as a kid for the lack of UFO's and so forth, but I've been through some things that causes me to identify with this story. Sorry, I don't mean to come across crass or anything, everybody's got their tastes. :-) A few months back I would have claimed "Timelash" as my fave hands down. Not so now. I'm not 100% sure, but I will say "Question of Priorities" and "Mindbender" for now. Ken |
In CC_AOK I also got annoyed with Mary as beong too emotional and suspicious.
Surely she could realize that even within the film trade there are secrets and people kept busy with things that they can't tell outsiders about? > Ed, if you were any decent normal man --- (scream nag nag nag) --- then the secrets of SHADO may well have ended up on the endless list of secrets that have leaked in the marriage or love bed down the ages. That, and tongues loosened by drink, are a major cause of security breaches. And as for her going off into a frenzy of alleging adultery because she saw him with one of SHADO's female staff in his car!!! |

She probably should have been given the amesia drug and packed off somewhere IMHO. Of course it was she was pregnant and problems seem much bigger then. Ha tell me about it! She really should have told mother to keep her nose out of her marital affairs. Sheila Still UFO Crazy crazy crazy crrraaazzzzy! > > > > > |
