Synopsis

Space Precinct is a British television series that aired from 1994 to 1995 on Sky One and later on BBC Two in Britain, and in first-run syndication in the US. Many US stations scheduled the show in late night time slots, which resulted in low ratings and ensured cancellation. The series was created by Gerry Anderson and was a mix of science fiction and police procedural that combined elements of many of Anderson's previous series such as Space: 1999, UFO and Thunderbirds, but with an added dash of Law & Order and Dragnet. Gerry Anderson was Executive Producer along with Tom Gutteridge. One of the series' directors was John Glen who had previously helmed various James Bond movies.

Ensofter Overrated and overhyped
JinRoz For all the hype it got I was expecting a lot more!
Chirphymium It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
Arianna Moses Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
SanteeFats Unfortunately I bought the entire season and I feel forced to watch it because of that. At first I thought this was basically a cop show sent to space. After watching a few episodes I realized that while that was the case it also was not that good. Very humdrum writing, plots, and acting. It seems that almost all the characters are from the UK and while that is not a problem I found it interesting, especially the Irish accented captain, talk stereotyping!! The special effects, such as there were, are usually lame. This is even before the really good CGI of today. Since I assume (I know) the budget was limited - all the aliens, droids, and cyborgs are all bipedal and humanoid in shape and most look like a version of hammerhead sharks on dry land, some with strange hair to say the least. There is some decent humor though along with all the hammy lines. Shackleford is the main character and acts almost as bad as the rest. His family is played poorly, especially the two kids and the oh so obvious pet. I think I will be passing this poor set on to some other unsuspecting person.
Brian Dickens (b.dickens) I just cannot understand why there are people who say 'Space Precinct' isn't worth watching, as it is a very good SF-series!Yes, of course the aliens look a bit ridiculous, but that's actually part of the series' charm. Along with good stories, very obvious chemistry between Rob Youngblood (Officer Jack Haldane) and Simone Bendix (Officer Jane Castle) ànd nice sfx, this is a SF-series worth watching.It's a shame, though, that only one season was made.
masteralan Officer Jack played by Rob Youngblood, showed the quality of his work, clearly used because of his pin up looks, and sex appeal to the viewers. Dressed in high boots,tight pants, and sky blue shirt, was one of the two actors who made the show. I am sure many who watched it did so, just to see Rob, not to watch the programe as it was neither written for children or adults. Such a waste, with talented cast, and a liitle work this could have been easily made into an adult show. Then it would have been a hit.
vicsbooth1 Gerry Anderson has created a terrific cop show in space!!!! The first few episodes establish the characters and setting, then the show takes off with great stories and super effects!!!!! The dvds from England are spectacular with outstanding sound and picture quality. Fans of Gerry Anderson, and other science fiction shows will love this one.
