TV on DVD alert

[dvandom]

Two nostalgia-heavy shows (at least for most of you reading this) hit DVD this week. The first 32 episodes of Silverhawks (expect it to be about $30 most places) and the entire series of the 1970s SF spoof Quark (about $15).

Quark!? SWEET!

Oh wow, Quark. That was my favorite show when I was in third grade.

I wonder how well it holds up. (Probably not very.)

TALLYHAWK!

OH Dude!! I loved that cartoon. Even though it made no sense at all.

I loved how they had the plot device on their FTL. "Well, we have intergalactic FTL now. But it'll kill you unless we replace most of your body with metal." "Sign me up!" I think I'd read Rocannon's World shortly before Silverhawks started, so the idea of a lethal FTL was pretty well entrenched in my mind. :)

I remember watching Silverhawks. Never heard of Quark though.

Quark. (http://www.deepdiscount.com/viewproduct.htm?productId=49756414) (Quark Wiki entry. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quark_(TV_Series)))

Reading this, I get the impression that Red Dwarf was pretty much a direct ripoff of the show with only minor changes.

I think you mean, Quark Wikipedia entry (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quark_(TV_series)).
