Space: 1999 (1977) – Bringers of Wonder: Part 2, and The Seance Spectre
After last week’s cliffhanger with Commander John Koenig (Martin Landau) being menaced by one of the monstrous Bringers, I had to find out what happened next! Written by Terence Feeley, this episode first aired on 11 August, 1977. While the rest of the Alphans see the Bringers as friends, relatives, and loved ones, Koenig sees…

Captain’s log: stardate 44001.4 How do you follow up a cliffhanger like the one that closed the third season of The Next Generation?

Orphan Black continues to kick ass and take names, and last night was no exception, in fact, they continue to up the ante.
