...is so completely ridiculous - and that's why I love it. It's pure, goofy, mindless, fantastical escapism. Just thought I'd share.

Thank you! It's great to hear from people who understand and enjoy the show, without complaining about how the science isn't real.

It's pure escapism.

Enjoy!

Great show with fun characters and silly adventures.
Kind of like TV used to be.

Yes! This isn't trying to be some gritty, realistic, scinetifically accurate work of serious drama. It's an action-adventure show with a lot of DNA from the crazy action-adventure series from the 1980s (that were fun to watch, but did not follow the rules of physics, and were still awesome), with a dash of the 1960s "Mission Impossible."
