after view several episode of this series and i have come to the conclusion that television producer be completely devoid of any form of originality . here be an old science fiction standby and ingeniously wrap in the form of a truly original concept and still they can only almost make it work . the dialog be good . the male actor be reasonably proficient at their profession . most of the character be well draw and with special kudos to the hero and his more than likeable side kick . and most of the episode plot come across a palatable . so what could be wrong . how about the and the female character and the cosmeticly perfect actress who be choose to portray them . the producer insist on portray the female character in this almost good series and in a manner that make the end product appear to be a misplaced cheerleader . why and i ask and why . the episode all fall flat whenever the female guest star or recur character come on screen . these actress be all totally unbelievable in their role and and you do not actually have to see them to know they be incapable of their acting assignment . a blind person could tell . just listen to them talk . they deliver their dialog with all the drama and effect of a 16 year old at the high school prom . who would believe these woman be phd scientist and senator and corporate executive and medical doctor . in a nut shell and if the producer have their choice of a stockard channing or a morgan fairchild and guess who they will choose every time . and of course and the series suffers for it . too bad .
