Flash Gordon - S1E1   
No spoilers so far , but it looks like it could be ok.
I don't think it's going to be anything earth shattering , but it should be 
worth a nose

Was a bit bored by iy to be honest.  Found it to be very Smallville in tone. 
Bionic Woman wasn't great either.  We need something as good as Prison Break 
for the Summer hiatus dammit!

It didn't do a lot for me, to be honest. Rather pedestrian, and with a
bit of a reset button at the end which didn't bode well for the full
series.

I'll give it a couple of episodes to see if it settles into something
interesting, but hope's not high.

btw., the second "Masters of Science Fiction" is available on the
usual places. Haven't watched it yet, but after the first excellent
one (imho), I'm looking forward to tonight's journey home.

I'd only watched about 40 minutes when I posted.
After that it does seem a bit bland which is a shame.

Still , this was a pilot episode so it's likely that there will be changes 
and it's worth watching a couple more.

Not watched it yet and based on comments so far I'm not in any rush.

Watched the first one tonight - excellent. And thanks for the reminder on 
number 2.
