Flash Gordon on RTE in the 70s...

[Deleted User] · 2008-03-21 14:23:26

Anyone else remember it? It was the original show from the 30s, I think, with spaceships on strings, sweeping music, and electrical crackling being the only special effect. Think it was on RTE2 on Sunday evenings. Great stuff, bring it back...

Ah stop with that nonsense! Though the Buster Crabbe series sure beats the current version by all accounts - esp the effects!

The new show is a disaster. Mongo is a wooded area somewhere in Canada, Ming is a benevolent dictator, not necessarily a bad guy just trying to help his planet survive and worst of all Flash is'nt even all that Flashy so to speak.
