Hi Robin, Just couldn't get into this episode. : ( Don and I didn't even watch it all the way through. I don't know why, it just did nothing for me. How...
Hi Robin, Mrs. G., I think Steve "knew how to pick" them when he was 20! Or maybe they knew how to pick him! I hope Steve dated before comitting himself to...
Hi Cheryl, Pauline and I felt exactly the same way about this story - first time around when we got the DVD set. But, we liked it much better the second time. ...
Hi Cheryl, I think that's exactly it. The girls knew to pick *him*. So he had no trouble collecting nice girls as friends. He ould have been known as a...
Hi everyone: Something that's been bothering me for a long time is why none of the other XL ships appear to have a doctor among the crew. Well, of course,...
Hi Ed, Very cool message! Thanks! We didn't know Fireball was pregnant, just thought she was chomping most of the fish food! But we have two baby mollies now...
Hi Robin, I don't know what this is in reference to, but I like your sign off! Cheryl. Robin Day <ra.day@...> wrote: Thanks for the info on rearing a...
Hi Mrs. Gooner, Why is it I couldn't even get through this episode? Don didn't care for it, either. Already asked Robin. Anyone have an answer? Thanks, ...
Hi Robin, Thank you for this posting. Now I will watch it again. It seems that every episode has so much texture. Perhaps it is the apparent childishness of...
Hi Robin, I think that Jim is exactly right. With Steve's looks he probably had a lot of interested "girls," but he seems the type to go out with a woman. ...
Hi again, Mrs. Gooner, Totally off subject - how did the Pats do? The Raiders lost 42-14. Pathetic. They're so bad that they haven't televised a Raiders...
Hi Mrs G. I'm glad you asked that question. I'll give you the 'answers' that Pauline and I came up with when we pondered the same thing. ... other ... him/her....
Hi Cheryl, No, it's not about budgets. Look at Star Trek - how many of the 430 crew did you see? How many of the 1000 crew did you see? In other words you...
I think that in Space Monster, there is some comment about the XL5 having a doctor and this being a surprise to the other crew. If that's the case either: A)...
Hi Robin, Great point about the XL ships being patrol vehicles, because that's what they are, but I'd never thought of them in terms of policing the sectors,...
There was some discussion on earlier episodes about how the crews seem to vary on different XL ships. They may have different missions, or perhaps there are...
Greetings!!! It's been a while since I alighted on this launch rail... Sooo, Is the Fireball Comic officially deceased or what? Do we know anything new? Also...

Hi Calling all those who are knowledgeable about TV21 etc. I've always wondered, and have never been able to find out, why Mike Noble didn't abide by the...

In the first Fireball annual isn't the front and end papers showing Steve and Venus on their jetmobiles and her uniform green in the picture? ... From:...
Hi Jeff and Mrs. Gooner, I don't know about TV21 or the Fireball Annual (never seen them), but on my vintage 1964 Fireball Thermos and lunchbox Venus' uniform...
Hi Jeff and Cheryl... ....and thank you for your replies. I've just had a quick look through the annuals and at a picture of the lunch box. You're right....
Hi Cheryl, Next episode is 'Trial By Robot'. Fire when ready... If anyone is still catching up, just post away, nothing 'times out'. I'll be posting my...
Hi folks, Well, it could be that Venus wears a silver/grey suit under the tunic. The sleeves reflect the green from the tunic. The trousers don't reflect as ...
Hi again, In 'Century 21' magazine number 12, Spring 1993, there is a copy of a merchandise guide. This shows Venus wearing an emerald green tunic and metallic...
Hi Robin, Thanks for your wonderful detailed answer - as usual lots of interesting and different views I hadn't considered before. Like comparing the XL5 to...
Hi Mrs. Gooner, No idea whatsoever, yet even on Fireball websites I see Venus in green and yellow. I believe I saw Sylvia Anderson with the Venus marrionette...
