    Space 2099 (TV series) - Space 1999 reboot

    Yep, you read that right

    ITV Studios America and HDFilms have teamed to develop Space: 2099, a reimagining of the 1970s British sci-fi series Space: 1999 created by Gerry & Sylvia Anderson. HDFilms’ Jace Hall, who recently executive produced ABC’s reboot of another sci-fi franchise, the 1980s mini-series V, is executive producing the new project.

    true on that. one of the best ship designs out there. too bad the show didn't live up. when your ship is the coolest thing in a show/movie, you might have some problems. wait a minute...lucas made a fortune off of movies where the ships were the best actors....hmmm
