i remember the aliens were called chigs, their blood was acid i think. after this show ended all the actors seemed to find small roles on the x files. fox never gave it a chance, just like firefly!
I like this vid. A good example of how to splice a bunch of clips together with few transitions. You timed it to the beat well. The music itself doesn't do anything for me but still a handsom vid that if I hadn't seen the show would have been a good trailer. So over all good work.
It's 20th Century FOX that's to blame. They cancel all the good shows. I hope FOX gets a reputation among writers that if you want your shows to last, go to another network.
The reason this show ended so soon is the same reason Firefly only lasted 10 episodes: because FOX is run by a bunch of overpaid morons who wouldn't know quality science fiction if it bit 'em in the ass.
I agree. The technology wasn't over the top and the characters were likeable. If they had promoted the show better it would have gone down in history as a show that rivaled Star Trek in popularity. Fox almost blew it again when they almost cancelled Fringe. The people that evaluate talent over there don't have a clue.
this was a great show. i watch it dvd now one of the best episodes is the angriest angel. i wish they would bring it back. the tech today is better imagine what they could do now.

Um...sorry to say this, but this show really wasn't that great . I don't know why, maybe it was poor scripts, the over-acting, or the idea that a bunch of misfits can go through only 13 weeks of training (with no prior military experience) and become expert hand-to-hand/front-line soldiers...AND pilots....
I understand this is sci-fi/fantasy, and we're asked to suspend disbelief...but that was a little too much.
Man, that was a great show, too bad they axed ... bastids!
Cool thing is, because it takes place in the future, you can pretty much make up all the history you want. West said once "The Niners really suck, they haven't won the SuperBowl in 70 years." hahaha
why does the 58th fly with only five pilots in the chiggy can rictofen episodes they showed a full squad was 6 pilots, so why only five, the only time after the battle of the belt that they did go out with six was winslow's death
Continuity left the building with Space: Above and Beyond, around the time we only just had colony ships going into space, but pulled space carriers out of thin air within moments of being attacked by the chigs. ;)
Just sit back and enjoy the show, and try and ignore niggling details.
come to think of it at first they could only go places because of wormholes but then sudently we had some kind of FTL travel also coming out of thin air
Such a shame this only got 1 season!! Such a great cast. I bought the dvd boxset recently. I forgot how good it was!!! Long Live the 58th Squadron!! Great video to by the way!
i think its good. it was a great tv show. By making several seasons it would have been weaker with every new season, just like all series.
The way it is now, it remains outstanding.
