From amazon.com:
Space 1999 Megaset. $50
I gave up on this show after about five episodes...I couldn't bear to watch it anymore, so I turned it over to my best friend. And he reports back to me that it's not that bad...

That filmation stuff is like gold to me now for some reason. I remembered Ark II fondly and it hasn't disappointed, I was a huge fan of Jason of Star Command but I don't remember a whole lot. Looking forward to revisiting it. Now Space Academy, I absolutely don't remember it at all. I'll bet I like it if it's similar to Ark II or just has a strong 70s retro feel. I'm really into that right now. Land of the Lost has also been excellent.
I just watched a very early episode of Mystery Science theater 3000 that featured Cosmic Princess, which was really just a few Space 1999 episodes played back to back and it was great! I loved it so much and was thrilled the whole show could be bought for so cheap.

Smart thinking.
Yeah, that thing I got from wally world for like $25. It's great! Made my old TV new again.

With the purchase of the Pole to Pole DVD, I officially retired my VHS of that show that I taped over a decade ago. Too bad there are still two that have yet to be released: 'Full Circle' and 'Hemingway Adventure'.  Odd that they released the most recent one: 'New Europe' first.....hope they release them soon.

I have at least one Full Circle recorded that I've never seen. I really need to pull that out and watch it sometime. I recorded it off PBS ages ago.
