Ok, those would have been on my list, the list I wasn't going to make...

As you've decided to set free, from the amorphous, fabric enclosure, the
feline, has anyone seen for US audiences, or even in English translation, '
Raumpatrouille - Die phantastischen Abenteuer des Raumschiffes ORION'?

"Raumpatrouille - Die phantastischen Abenteuer des Raumschiffes ORION'"

Was that a 60's show that some compared to "Star Trek"? If so, I've seen
pictures, and maybe have run across a website or two, but never actually saw
it.

I do have some fond memories of a UK-German production from 1977 or so
involving evil female aliens kidnapping males from Earth or some such. Some
nifty models, silly plots. A short run TV series? Space Maidens? Could it have
had such a silly name? Ah, no "Star Maidens"!

Now there's a good background for a FT campaign!

Not sure how some Germans would like the comparison, but it was about a 'Space
Patrol'.

Sorry, all I can think of is the very grade B 'Queen of Outer Space'; even as
a child, I could only sit, and watch Zsa Zsa Gabor chew scenery in horror...

*shudder*

Appears wasn't so much about the kidnappings as about role reversals; ST: TNG
attempted the same with Angel One.

There have been plenty of 'Mars Needs Our Women', but I think Alan Nourse's
'Raiders From the Rings' probably did the kidnap mates as well as any I've
read.

Ok, I quit; the topic will soon run out of room for the 'was:' extensions...

Oh? Were you in Mexico recently? I've often thought of...

Oh. Oh, yeah. The topic... ;->=
