Random Thoughts: The Sound Of Silence

In addition to being a great Simon & Garfunkel song, this was a pretty cool
episode.

The opening title freeze frame shots with the steeple chase were great.

I have to wonder what that stuff really was that Culley was rolling...

Aside from that skin tight jumpsuit and lions mane of hair, it would be hard
to miss Ayshea coming particularly with that big metal "A" draped around her
neck.

The unnamed Moonbase operative looked kinda yummy. Need to evaluate in
silver mini.

The series could have made great use of a Steadicam.

"Kinky Swedish au pair girl?" Send the kiddies to bed!

Definitely send them to bed with Anne in that short peach silk robe. Just
lovely. Then in that red dress... I'd gladly wake up to that from every
alien abduction.

Culley should have been shot much sooner for the way he treated that dog. I
just hate to see animals harmed, even if it is acting.

Is Straker doing a Michael Jackson/Madonna move when he rises from his desk,
or is he just happy to see Ayshea?

P.S. I watched SubSmash with the commentary by Ed Bishop. I must say he is
both an insightful and delightful moderator.

End Transmission.

A situation we may one day find ourselves in, gentlemen. So they discover earth. Abundant, fertile. Able to satisfy their needs. They look upon us not with animosity, but callousness. As we look upon our animals that we depend on for food. Yes, it appears they are driven by circumstance across a billion miles of space, driven on by the greatest force in the universe - survival."

Oh, that's coming next, as a matter of fact. The scene at the end is
pretty upsetting, but it was done so the imagination had to take over.

In The Sound Of Silence, Culley is dragging the dog around by the
collar, throwing a knife at it, then it winds up graphically
mutilated.

However, I don't blame the UFO folks. It just added to the tension.
