Best Sci-Fi series ever, dreadful set and effects notwithstanding? Dreadfully under-rated when compared to Star Trek and Bablyon 5? Got the short end of the straw from the BBC when it came to remakes?

I alway liked it, because the writing struck me as being different to American Star Trek - in B7, they're on the run from an all-powerful and corrupt federation, their ship blows up and everyone dies. Eventually.

Plus, it had the best theme tune.

Discuss, please. )

yes i love Blakes 7 too, i got series 1-3 on DVD waiting on series 4 to come to DVD which i think was the last series for Blakes 7.

it was great i dont think it ever had 1 bad episode?? like stargate sg1 very good episodes run through entire series.

shame its not been remade into a new series updated it be cool, i did read some while back it was going to be done as TV movies.

at the ending you dont see Avon die so he might of survived???

"Star Trek meets Survivor" - 'you're friends are all behind you, so you'd better watch your back'. I must say that I enjoyed Blakes 7.
