I full agree, though I would add bad acting to the mix as well.
Never was a series with such a fantastic premise and design let down
by shoddy scriptwriting, inconsistent ideas and mediocre acting.
That it remains exciting, compulsive viewing thirty years later is a
testament to the genius of the original idea and the brilliance of
the special effects and models.
