Space: 1999 - Season 1 (Blu-ray)
An adventure as big as the universe!
In the year 1999, a spectacular explosion at a lunar nuclear waste dump sends the moon out of Earth’s orbit. In this seminal sci-fi series from producer Gerry Anderson (Thunderbirds, UFO), the men and women of Moonbase Alpha are suddenly propelled on a treacherous journey across the universe in search of extraordinary new worlds. Left with no way home, the Earthling citizens are forced to embark upon the greatest adventure of their lives, encountering bizarre life forms and strange phenomena as they struggle to survive among the awe-inspiring wonders of outer space.
All 24 first season episodes of this acclaimed space adventure have been restored in stunning high definition and presented with newly-created 5.1 surround soundtracks, and hours of brand-new bonus features.
With its progressive plotlines, an outstanding cast, and astonishing special effects from Oscar winner Brian Johnson (Alien, The Empire Strikes Back), Space: 1999 has secured its place as one of the most thought-provoking series of the 20th century—and beyond.

Disc 5 hidden surprise episode - DVDNut
This set remastered in HD is excellent! Plenty of extras not available in the earlier DVD set. Hidden in the extras menu is the season 2 premier episode "The Metamorph" in HD! I found it by mistake on the internet so I rented it again to see it. I hope there will be a full season 2 HD set in the near future.A Master Piece - uchu
This is, undoubtedly, the most underrated sci-fi show of all times. Intended to be the first big British TV hit in North America, it has all the elements of a space classic, comparable to Star Trek or Star Wars. Landau and Bain rendered brilliant performances, almost as good as the amazing Barry Morse, a superb British-Canadian actor.
Season one is acclaimed as being more true to its original idea, while season 2 is arguably rated as a faulty attempt to make it more "Star Trek" like, in an effort to attract audiences this side of the Atlantic.
A master piece from producers Gerry and Sylvia Anderson (Thunderbirds, Captain Scarlet, UFO), this series is a must see for any sci fi aficionado. Highly recommended.Classic Show - olliekahn
Space 1999 is a true science fiction classic, and one of the most underrated shows of the 70's. Never finding a huge audience, perhaps now with it's Blu ray release it will find a cult following.
With a great story revolving around human kind living on the moon, this program will be a sure hit for anyone a fan of the science fiction genre.
