    I'm pretty sure #1 is Marianna Hill in the original Star Trek episode Dagger of the Mind.

    You are absolutely correct! #1 is from Star Trek, Dagger of the Mind, and that's the beautiful Marianna Hill as Dr. Helen Noel. Well done!

  6. Hi Jay-Jay,

    #3 is not the Six Million Dollar Man (though you are in the right decade/time period there...) but # 8 is indeed The X-Files. Great job!

  9. To Anonymous: #6 isn't Red Dwarf, but that would be a good one!

  10. #3 is from "Space:1999, second season though the episode name escapes me. #6 is from "Buck Rogers" but I don't know the specific episode (I'd recognize those wall panels anywhere). Is #7 from "V"?

  11. Hi everyone,

    Great identifications happening here, folks! SGB: You successfully recognized Space:1999 "The Dorcons" and the image from Buck Rogers! Jaime, you are right that #6 is not from "Red Dwarf!" And Pierre, #7 is indeed from "V"!

    Great job!

  12. Here's a shot in the dark, but I think #9 could be from "Space: Above and Beyond."

  13. Hi Michael,

    Number 9 is not from Space: Above and Beyond, but that was an excellent guess, sir. Here's a hint: it's from a third season episode of a series that began airing in the 1990s!

    best,
