X Files before the X Files.
rxfore29 August 2007
Late 80s sci-fi show based upon the 1953 movie. The premise is original, but the writing wasn't. Far from horrible, far from excellent. If you are a sci-fi fan, you most likely would enjoy this. The show was re-tooled for the second season, which indicated the studio's meddling with the show, which in turn was it's demise. Plot holes in sci-fi can be over looked from time to time(a team of 4 try to follow and stop an alien invasion),and that was not the primary problem here. The biggest was weak characters and over the top characters. With a little better writing, this show would have been much better and survived much longer.
