Space Cases

This sci-fi epic caught my attention from the first episode, and has never left my memory since. The mix of comedy, drama and science was the perfect combination for a great show! Despite the fact it aired on Nickelodeon -known as a kids network - Space Cases has many little references, jokes and themes throughout that fly right over the heads of its target audience. The distinct personalities of each cadet make them unique...I was also one disappointed by the loss of Catalina at the end of the first season. (With that Saturnian personality and powers, she's the best of the five IMO.) The episodes went downhill incredibly from Suzee's appearance onward. Thanks to the internet I have found pictures and sounds to remind me of this great work, but sadly I haven't seen an actual episode in five years. Sure, I could find more ''flaws'' now than I could back then at age 13, but there is no chance I would like it any less; if this is your type of show you cannot grow out of it. If you can get a hold of some Space Cases episodes, I completely recommend it to you and am sorry I can't see it anymore. Zabagabe, zabagabe!!

The feel of how this show was filmed reminds me of "the tomorrow people". Group of young cadets let curiosity get the better of them and sneak aboard a strange alien space cruiser. Suddenly, they find themselves in unknown space, trying to get home while battling a race called the "spung". Like most good shows however, it died too soon because most viewers prefer "stupid-vision"(aka "reality shows").

I at least would very much like to see this series released on DVD, or for some other station(COUGH~independent~COUGH)to broacast this show on the air again. Barring that, if I could gain permission to do so - I would start a LPTV and broadcast it myself! Shows like this should NOT be allowed to drift into obscurity!

I have such fond memories of this show. I vividly recall rushing to the TV Saturday nights just to watch this show. It was original, funny, cute, and related well to its target audience. I was crushed when it stopped airing on Nick, and still think about it to this day (whenever I see the girl who played the rainbow haired character, Staite or something similar I believe). I really wish the show would have continued, that someone would have at least tried to tie up some of the loose ends. They could have done so much more with this show in my youth, and I feel sorry for the many people who will never get to see it for what it was. This was far to excellent a show to just slip away and disappear into the corners of young people's memories....

Wow, this is amazing. I adored the show from day one - wasn't it part of "Snick"? - and eagerly tuned in until they killed off Catalina, my favorite character . . . from then on I lost interest. Bearing in mind that I lacked a good deal of perspective four years ago, I still remember a very good show, and I'd love to see reruns now to know if I was right.

The people at Nickelodeon, must have not known what they were doing when they removed this show from their lineup, had they no idea how many people actually found this show interesting. This was my favorite show. I remember watching SNICK at 8 PM every single Saturday. And I miss this show...although, corny at times, it never failed to delight me nor my sisters. And I must congratulate on the writers of the scripts, that kept me glued to the TV. I normally dislike Sci Fi, but this is a huge exception. I wish they would at least put on reruns. Well, hopefully, they will, since this show, and others like it, are highly missed, being that these new shows, aren't that great.
