B5 will still sometimes throw an incredible amount of compressed mid-90s at you.



Hitmen from the future used to have blow-dryed hair. And that glove. Straight out of the OJ trial that was taking place as this ep first aired. Killin' gloves were just that in-style at the time.

This show wasn't all that terrible in the first couple of seasons. After they got rid of the first guy and replaced it with the white guy in the picture it started losing me. Good premise for a show, but they didn't know when to simply end it.

This show was good poo poo. An American cartoon in the mid 90s where people actually died. I had to wake up at 5:30am to watch it, but it was worth it.

The outfits ALMOST look like Space Rangers with the shoulder pads and logos, but it doesn't look like anyone from the show that I recognize.

Also, The short lived 90s Space Rangers:

I totally forgot CLINT HOWARD was in this.

edit: Wow, I see as many recognizable 'that guy' actors in the first 30 seconds of the episode as I do in the entire main cast.

edit 2: Not a 90s, but actually made at the same time as the original Star Trek from what I understand:
Raumpatrouille https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vJI4J92Btis (At 6m56s, EuroKirk and company just walkin' in like a bunch of bosses.)
It's sort of interesting to see how similar/different just the bridge set is compared to Trek. Almost looks like Trek '09

Yeah they had mechs in that show, I thought it was awesome as poo poo when I was like 11 or 12 and was confused as to why something so sweet was canceled after six episodes.

The show by the way was called Hypernauts and, as I have just learned, was basically created by Foundation Imaging to be an advertisement for their CGI effects.

Not much.
It was an amazing time back then. We were looking at the future with joy and wonder, and so shows were about how amazing things will be and how we will be all working together in harmony.

Y/N would you date Jha'Dur aka Gaila Lobos aka "Deathwalker", holder of the rank of Warmaster, war criminal, creator of anti-agapics, wielder of the Stafford plague, responsible for the destruction of the planets Tirolus, Comac and Halax, last of the Dilgar race?




Pros: Forever young.
Spending holidays together with friends in the Wind Swords.
Good teeth.

Cons: Systems full of blood oath vendetta holders make vacation planning a chore.
Affects a bad British accent on occasion.
Asks for the heads of things as a form of dispute resolution.
