Flash!

Is the 2007 Flash Gordon TV series worth watching? One of my local charity shops has the DVDs for a tenner, I'm wondering if I should bother. The Wikipedia description doesn't inspire much confidence, since they seem to have cut out e.g. space ships. Anyone know anything about it?

OK, that seems to be pretty unanimous. I shall pass this one by. I had a feeling that was going to be the result.

In a word, no. Aside from everything above, the Sci-Fi Channel dealt with the old Yellow Peril stereotypes associated with Ming by going so far in the opposite direction that he became utterly bland. You can't blame them for that (and they aknowledged the character's problems on their official website) but IMO there were better ways to handle it. (http://jeriendhal.livejournal.com/353837.html)
