Cheesy, yet gripping
Blake's 7 is often sneered at, with some justification, for its cheap and shoddy production values. It is true that the effects are poor, the sets wobbly, (especially the Liberater's flight controls), and the clothing plumbs the depths of 70s naffness. But then, the budget was miniscule, so what can you expect?
Concentrate instead on the characterisation; the morally dubious Blake, bullying his crew into following him; the calculating Avon, more concerned with wealth and survival; the cowardly Villa; the barking mad Travis, and of course the sensual, power-crazed Servalan.
It is these characters that lift Blake's 7 from its lowly budgetry problems; the crew of 'heroic' rebels bicker and whinge amongst themselves, Servalan plots their downfall, Travis kills anyone who spills his pint... It's all a far cry from the pristine banality of Star Trek, or the paper-thin characters of Star Wars, and it is this unusual take on the standard 'rebels against the fascists' plot that makes Blake's 7 stand out.
The plots, of course, can be ropey, with plot holes large enough to teleport through and contrivances that would make any jaded hack pause in their scribbling, but overall series one pulls itself up from these problems to be thoughtful, dark, and a welcome addition to the science ficton canon.
It's certainly not perfect, but Blake's 7 does at least try to be different, which is more than you can say for most other shows.

Good, but could have been great
Although not as good as Quatermass and the Pit, the scripts of Q1 and Q2 are still well done. The films are taut, move along nicely, and only fall apart a little at the end.
The poorest element, alas, is Brian Donlevy, who plays the film version of Quatermass as an arrogant, insensitive authoritarian figure, completely at odds with the original TV version. (Thankfully, Andrew Keir would replace Donlevy in Q3, and he does a much better job).

The Tara King Season
1 von 1 finden das hilfreich I've long been a fan of The Avengers, and while the Tara episodes are generally weaker than the Mrs Peel seasons, verging as they sometimes do on silliness rather than wit, they are still enormous escapist fun, made back in the days when TV executives were rather more experimental and bolder than they are now. So if you want over-the-top scenarios, larger-than-life villains, and episodes brimming over with style, panache and fun, then The Avengers is well worth dipping into.
