- GeekyBear 3y ago> UFO The show was ridiculous, but every time I see it mentioned I have to go watch the intro and show's theme music. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1qDy4OMAkgY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1qDy4OMAkgY
- TheOtherHobbes 3y agoI'm still a fan. I rewatched a few years ago. It's darker than I remember and there are sexier elements I completely missed as a kid. Some of the episode themes - like racism - were far ahead of their time. Of course it's dated now, but I don't think it's more ridiculous than today's superhero franchises If you compare to other British 1970s TV SF, like Dr Who, it was a remarkable effort.
