    Re: Lone Solo 'review'

    Originally, I didn't want to make a fuss, but having seen this page again, and knowing this 'review' is what most people, who mayn't have any knowledge of this show, will be met with, each time they look up 'The Space Giants' I suddenly felt the strong need to respond.

    I found 'Lone Solo's comments offensive, mean-spirited, and smarmy, but, worst of all, highly ill-informed. It seems as if the only exposure he's had to this programme was through the off-handed and unflattering trailer produced by WTBS in Atlanta during its run on that station in the 1970's.

    Having gone back to watch it in my adult life, I, in addition to enjoying it immensely as a monster adventure series, was surprised at how clever and weighty it actually was. There's a point where the villain, Rodak, gets so desperate to control the Earth, that he actually takes up with organised crime to spread an highly addictive drug called 'Zenar'! I'd never noticed, there was a gradual progression from the light, frothy adventures, to a heavier, serious conflicts through the course of 'The Space Giants'. However, it was never heavy-handed or did it harm it as a children's adventure series. The series managed to remain true to its source and characters! I can't think of one example of a similar series, currently being produced for children, on America television, that compares.

    The format of serialised adventures (four episodes for one story) was a budgetary decision that aided in story and character development. This also put it in sharp contrast with the other 'monster of the week' contemporaries of 'The Space Giants'. This, I felt, gave the heroes victories, defeats, struggles, and triumphs more gravitas. We feel the sorrow of Mikko and his father as, for several episodes (apparently months in the series context), Mikko's mother goes missing, kidnapped by Rodak.

    'The Space Giants' also never pulled any punches when it came to death or violence, although, interestingly, it never reveled in them. (There is an instance, however, in the American dub, where a character, killed in the original Japanese show, is 'hospitalised' instead. Perhaps this was done because the character was a young girl and the producers felt it might upset children in the audience. I can't say for a certainty.) Given their approach to this area, the programme managed to never fall into the trap of callously showing violent acts or cheapening of human life as other series can tend to do. The monster battles were, at times very violent, but always on an 'operatic' scale.

    As far as special effects are concerned, this is a very subjective topic. (I, for one, am not wild about cgi effects; among other things, they've never looked solid to me.) the effects produced for 'The Space Giants',as a whole, can only be described as hit or miss. They mayn't have always been special, but were certainly effective! What really helped was that they were always framed and edited well, not to mention highly imaginative. This in many ways, hid a lot of cost cutting. I'm afraid a modern similar series, wouldn't have half the ingenuity employed on 'The Space Giants' in this regard. (Again, this can be highly suggestive point, but if you have opportunity to see it, you'll see my argument.)

    At the time, this was relatively untried territory for this type of programme. P Productions, the company that produced 'The Space Giants', had only previously made 'Agon The Atomic Dragon'. (I haven't seen this, although I hear it's surprisingly good. The monster suit from it does appear in 'The Space Giants' on two occasions.) 'Agon' was roughly a t. v. mini-series version of the original 'Godzilla'. However, it was having this under their belts, along with Tsuburaya Productions announcement of their new series 'Ultraman', that made 'P Pro' switch gears and produce 'The Space Giants' as a live action series.

    Originally it was intended to produce a series similar the 'Astro Boy', another Osamu Tezuka creation. Previously animated sequences were actually re-tooled for use in the series. They are actually very effective.

    These are just a few points, off the top of my head, about what I feel to be a cleverly handled series from the days before formula began to rule its genre.

    DVD's are out!

    This was a great show but the rumors of no DVD or video release are not true. They are out but the only place I have seen them is yahoo auctions. I don't know why they have not gone into a more wide release.

    This show was my first introduction to Japanese to English dubbing. It makes it really interesting to see how out of sync the conversations can get. These were dubbed really badly in some parts. The DVD release also has the areas that never got dubbed into English for whatever reason so you can be going through a conversation and all of a sudden it switches to Japanese.

    The originals are also more violent than the US edits. Not your standard kids show fair. I would highly recommend seeing the complete series in it's unedited form. It gives you a better overview of the entire series if you can find it.

    Space Giants Info

    I was a big fan of this show back then. I was hoping somebody could help me by sending info regarding this show. I would like to know if there is a website for it. I would like to know if there is a way to get old shows on DVD. I have seen info on ebay but it wasn't very specific. In fact, it was kind of vague. My kids would like this kind of show. I would like to see these again since it brings back some good memories of the past. There were other shows at this time like Ultraman and Speed Racer. These were great to watch too. I'm hoping someone out there can be a big help with this. Hope to hear from somebody soon!!!!!! I know I cant be the only one out there that would like this info. Please help!!!!! Rochey50

    Great Show!

    This was a great TV show. It aired in the early 80's on Channel 17 (WTBS). It was fun to watch as a kid and I'm sure it would be a hit even today. There was NEVER a character named Liz, by the way, and the show did not have any religious meaning behind the stories. It was good the good guys (Earthlings) against the bad guys (aliens). Of course the good guys always won! The lead man was named TOM MURA.

    Best Series of my childhood

    So long I have wanted to see anything of this series again. The heroes Goldar,dad like; Silvar,mom like; and Gan ,boy like ;there was also a kid who called on them with special whistles,one for each hero They were robot-like aliens thats what they looked like anyhow that could turn into jets, the bads guy were awesome the way their costume turned from seemingly human filled into a oozing blob of a green pudding filled looked lots cooler than I described. My favorite episode was about this young boy who would dream bout a monster and then it would come to life. Oh what I wouldn't give to see an episode of my favorite childhood show...

      This Japanese series can be viewed as a forerunner to the legendary "Transformers" franchise, which began in America in 1984 as a toy line but soon launched the hit Transformers (1984) and all subsequent TV series and feature films.
