Jason of Star Command: The Complete Series (1979)
Spaced
By Jeffrey M. Anderson After Star Wars opened in 1977, there were dozens of "space" movies and TV shows like this one. I thought I remembered seeing it as a Saturday morning TV show as a kid, but then it hit me: I only saw it advertised in comic books. The actual show is pretty chintzy, with Craig Littler playing the hero throughout various adventures. He carries a little robot (called W1K1, or "Wiki"), which comes equipped with lasers, torches, and other handy devices, around in his pocket. At one point, he breaks through a door on a spaceship as if it were made of wood! The best reason to see this is the amazing "B" movie cast: James Doohan ("Scotty" from "Star Trek"), Sid Haig, a bald, sinister character actor from Jack Hill's movies, and Tamara Dobson, of Cleopatra Jones fame. Susan O'Hanlon is a cute shipmate, and Charlie Dell is a nerdy, Spock-like doctor. Julie Newmar and Playboy playmate Rosanne Katon were guest stars. Later this same year, Doohan saw his career temporarily revived with the first Star Trek movie. DVD Details: BCI's three-disc set comes with every episode, plus a new half-hour featurette, commentary tracks, a visual effects demo reel, photo and art galleries, and several screenplays on DVD-Rom.
