What episode of
Space: 1999 (1975-77) should I watch next? In perpetuation of my
Space: 1999 theme, I should screen another episode and comment.
"Earthbound" I watched then discussed briefly (
here) the other day and noted that that episode is one of the rare outstanding installments of the forty-eight, so to contrast maybe I should watch one of the worst of the pack: While there are a few, the one that comes to mind is "Ring Around the Moon". Nothing comes close in the
Space world to that one for general poorness. (
Star Trek has "And the Children Shall Lead".)
So, unless one of my devoted readers can suggest a better pick than "Ring Around the Moon" then that's what I'm going to view tonight at "eleven". Stay put for the review in a day or two; or feel free to tell me that my final choice from 'bad
Space: 1999 episodes' is the wrong one.
Addendum: I watched "Ring Around the Moon" a few months ago. I guess that episode could be classified as a guilty pleasure.

Dragon's Domain! That scared the pants off me as a kid. Or if you have the stamina for a two-parter, "The Bringers of Wonder" from the second season.
Thanks for the suggestions. The only thing is I wanted to watch a worst-of-the-pack story. And Dragon's Domain and The Bringers of Wonder are too tops for that.
I will do the third and final Space: 1999 episode screening on the weekend and pick one of the two you mention.
Thanks!
