My setup at home has deteriorated over the past 6-10 months, and I'll be damned if I know why. Mike's working on a solution for me, though, so hopefully this problem won't continue for much longer.

What happened to the audio quality? I first tried listening to this on my iPod last week and I thought maybe the file had been corrupted (it's happened before), so I downloaded it again. No, not a corrupted file. I ended up listening to this through my computer speakers so that the Skype crap didn't bother me so much. Content = excellent! Sound = needs work Wow!

This isn't the case apparently, as the 200Gig torrent I'm slowly downloading will attest. If you or any of the others want the file (I don't clasify it as illegal seeing as I'm in the UK and my ancestors paid TV licenses to pay for the show) send me a mail and I'll send it across.

I vote for a Dr Who show as well. Yes, there's a *massive* amount of material there but I have total faith in the Ninja's ability to turn it into a great show :) Also, I'd be curious about Blakes 7 (I noticed it's out on dvd). I haven't seen it for many years and wonder if it holds up to viewing now. Cheers. Hey guys, a late comment since I just listened to the voice mail show.

I absolutely loved Star Blazers when I was a teenager. I'd rush home from school to watch that, Kimba the White Lion, Marine Boy and Captain Scarlet. I've seen the Star Blazers series 1 collection on sale a number of times, but have been very afraid of being disappointed after I'd bought it. I know I didn't want the second series, but I think one day, I'll give in to temptation and get that first series. Maybe I should just rent it from Netflix and save myself too much heartbreak...

I absolutely LOVED the anime Star Blazers growing up. Thought it was the best thing ever. Fast forward to a couple years ago. I'm thirty, and spot a video from Star Blazers for ultra cheap at Suncoast. Jump on it and run home to watch. I almost cried at how BAD it was. Overblown metadrama, bad plotting, dumb characters, and too much metaphysics. Rather than risk another episode, I try veeeeeery hard to stay away from childhood loves anymore - its too dangerous.

Right now, we're just seeing how things go as we go along :) I also need a new layout here.

For example in the Tom Baker era, The Pyramids of Mars and The Robots of Death were two of the best stories done for Dr Who in my opinion: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyramids_of_Mars http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Robots_of_Death As for not visiting old shows, it really depends on the show. The BBC used to do reruns of Flash Gordon during school holidays, I enjoyed them as a kid, but I find the series unwatchable now. However I still enjoy watching some Gerry Anderson puppet series, which is more than I say for his live action series like UFO and Space 1999, which make make me cringe.
