God I love SAAB! I mean it was scifi’s MASH in that it was about all wars just not Vietnam or WII.

Extreemly well written characters and plots that never got boreing. Granted sometimes the science of the show was a little unbelievable but the stories were so great that it was easy to overlook.

One particular episode comes to mind “Who Monitors The Birds?” in which Hawks is on a covert mission on a hostil planet to take out an enemy leader all by him self.

I loved the no dialogue aspect while he was on his mission so we had to completely rely on his movements and facial expressions. Of course the flash backs to his days right after he came out of the tanks were just as good.

That in my opinion was the best episode they ever did but certainly nearly all of them were incrediably well written and mind you in a first season of all things.

That show was written as if it had been on for years. Why Fox didn’t realize they had something special is beyond me.
