The episode I couldn't believe...


Anyone catch the one where Dr. Dre from "Yo! MTV Raps" guested? He and his friends are spending the day at a carnival, but for some reason they are always drinking out of cartons of milk they're carring with them. Superforce is at the carnival trying to find a bad guy who is kidnapping people. At the end of the episode it's revealed that Dr. Dre and his friends are undercover cops who are always drinking out of milk cartons because they are looking for the lost kid whose picture is on the milk carton?!! Surrealistic logic there... amazing. Made a big impression on me.

Anyone else think Patrick Macnee's character's face was digitized was because he didn't want his face seen on this low-budget show?

After a while (about sixty seconds into the pilot episode) I discovered the show was already missing a significant amount of logic, but you can't hold that against it when you consider the low budget.
I've heard that Patrick Macnee theory too. I guess it's possible, but even with a digitized head he wasn't exactly hiding. He also had that great english accent and wonderful voice so it's still pretty hard to mistake him if you're familiar with his other works. Plus, his name is always in the credits for making a "special appearance". When you audibly or visibly contribute to every single episode then I tend to consider that as being part of the regular cast rather than just a special appearance.

Its a planet-destroying superlaser. How well does it need to be calibrated?
