Breakaway Day 2016: Final Post (Advert Artwork)
I hope everyone has enjoyed Breakaway 2016, and the look back at Space:1999 (1975-1977). It is always a thrill for me to write about the series again, and revisit the episodes.
Thank you for tuning in this week and giving the blog record numbers on its review of the Gerry and Sylvia Anderson classic.

You are most welcome, John. This is the place to go for intelligent analyses of Space: 1999. Your affection for the show is noticed and appreciated.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the amazing comments and insights. I have had a crazy busy week, but I loved seeing messages pop up on my phone, and stealing time to read your comments, as well as those of SGB and other readers. A million thanks, from my Moonbase to yours, and the other readers too.
DeleteJohn, I enjoyed this BREAKAWAY week too with your thoughts on Space:1999. Long before I found you on this blog, I discovered your work first in 1997 by purchasing multiple copies of your then newly published EXPLORING SPACE:1999 book. I would recommend it to any fan of this impressive '70s science-fiction series.

SGB. I want to thank you again for the kind words about my book, but also your great comments/thoughts about Space:1999 this week. It wouldn't have been a real breakaway week without you co-piloting an eagle, right beside me...
