The AB Chrysalis

The moon base faces disaster again.

I enjoyed the sets, the special effects and the sense of doom to come.

But it just did not hold me the way it should. As others have noted, this very much resembles some year one episodes, meaning there is another faceless British voice (aka alien) talking away all the time, but we got so much of that before....

I like Martin Landau but found him oddly boring here?? And I can't help thinking the director picked up on the bland tone of the hour and requested three mostly covered up nude people (two girls, one male) to liven things up a bit.

But again, I liked the sets, effects and sense of doom to come. As other reviewers find this episode so wonderful it is just possible that I simply don't totally connect to Space 1999 the way I should?

Whatever the case, this hour is just average (to me).
