USA: Of course, in this post-"Sopranos" world, we should acknowledge that "Babylon 5" (1994) was the first SF show to address serious political themes.
UK: Episode one of #Blakes7 (1978) has the police-state frame Blake as a paedophile to avoid making him a martyr. We remember this series as silly.

What I like about the 'if' is that it presupposes the best idea is to just perpetuate the bubble endlessly rather than step back.

Arguably the best Pertwee, if only for Martin Boddey's fear acting when he meets a Sea Devil.

This laptop is actually on an eye-height stand with a four-plus inch gap between it and the tabletop. So this is the fan noise in what I'd describe as close-to-ideal circumstances.

This is in no way scientific enough to go into the review. But here’s a clip of the fan noise when you’re playing a game.

Link and Levinson conceived him less as a real character and more as a sort of force of justice. Appearing from the void after a crime has been committed and disappearing back there at the end. But, even so, LA feels like *his* domain, where he's always one step ahead of his rival.
