Guess the TV show

[Frodo]

The Sea Voyage?

The Sea Voyage?

No, but I think you win for at least sharing a guess. It’s ‘The Voyage of the Mimi’, an educational PBS series that was pretty widely used in grade school curriculums to teach certain scientific concepts.

Ok all yours, Frodo!

[Frodo]

And now, for something a little bit weird.

Bill Nye Saves the World?

[Frodo]

Sorry, no. 
It's a sci-fi programme. 

[Sinitrena]

Lexx or Farscape?

It looks weird enough for both, though I think Lexx had worse picture quality (and I've seen maybe 5 episodes of Farscape)

If you had to pick one of them... which would you pick?   


She got the whole world, in her hands.
She got the whole wide world, in her hands. 
She got the whole world, in her hands.
She got the whole world in her hands!

Oh, you want me to guess just one? Where's the fun in that?

Alright. Farscape?

"Humans are superior!" 

But I'm too late, Sinitrena, got it first.

Alright. Farscape?

I had all these great Farscape screenshots ready... and now I can't use them.   
Excuse me while I go and sulk for a while.   

Yep, it's the 'slightly' weird Farscape.  I've been watching the repeats on Sci Fi Channel recently. 
But I was sure that first shot was bizarre enough to throw people off the scent.   


CRICHTON:  Told you I was taller than you!  See?  My head is above yours, and I'm literally looking down at you.
D'ARGO:  The only reason you're head is above mine, is because you're feet are not touching the floor!  I can easily rectify that.  Would you prefer your big head to stay up there, while your tiny little feet are replaced on the floor?
CRIGHTON:  I'd prefer my feet to stay attached to my body.
D'ARGO:  Gah, you're no fun!   *drops Crighton*

I don't know the show, but that full on looks like a Twi'lek (from behind).

I'm sorry!!!!!  The ceiling gave it away. Thiy screamed either sci-fi or industrial chic and sci-fi seemed more likely...
You do seem to love the show. I tried to get into it but didn't. If you want, you can try to convince me to give it a second chance? (You can even show me some more screenshots?)


But to get on with the show here, how about this masterpiece:



Sorry for the quality, this show is old. (And I'm not sure how well it is known internationally.)

[TheFrighter]

Looks a very old sci-fi serie, so... Sapphire & Steel?

Nope. But very old sci-fi, yes.

[Frodo]

The Time Tunnel?

[Sinitrena]

Not that one either.



Hints (so far):

Spoiler

Maybe not known internationally (note where I'm from)
Very old sci-fi

New hint:

Spoiler

It's a mini series

[Frodo]

The screenshot isn't showing anymore.   

[Sinitrena]

They show fine for me. (Maybe a little (temporary?) glitch with the free hosting I used).

I uploaded to a different service again, just to make sure:

[Frodo]

Screenshots are back, thanks Sinitrena.   

Don't know what the programme is, though.

That's Raumpatrouille Orion, of course! Wonderful early Sci-Fi series!

Someone else can take my turn, I usually don't read this thread, was just by coincidence that I saw the screen.
