  2. I have done some reading and I really like the direction the series is taking. They seem to be in the right ballpark for a reboot, mentioning in their FAQ the elements of the original they would like to stay true to as well as going in an exciting new direction. I hope the series appeals to the masses and new fans and worries less about the old fans complaining about designs and characters. I generally like remakes but Space: 1999 is my favorite show so I am not sure but so far so good.

  3. I just hope this show actually gets made. It appears to be further along than the UFO movie ever got and way further than Gerry Anderson's new Thunderbirds series which hasn't gone anywhere. I won't really believe in Space: 2099 until filming begins and even then, will it get picked up?
