The show was heading way out.

I do so love the last episodes of UFO. the show was heading way out and who knows where it was heading if it had not been cancelled? I caught this on a rerun after midnight in Winter 2020 and I was familiar with it from years ago, but it was so magical to see it again at that time. In 2021 we are complacent that humans are pretty much irrelevant in the future and machines will be king, but this harks back to a time when humans were the king and could create any world their mind could allow and the big question of what is real and what is not in our lives.First impressions to anyone watching is 'they must have been on something' or this was revenge for being cancelled- It does not matter they captured human essence here a fragrance that now seems long departed.

Wow!

A TV show within a TV show, this is an astonishing episode. It's insane, off the wall, bizarre, hilarious and terrifying all at the same time. Straker's identity crisis is truly the stuff of nightmares. As much Twilight Zone as in-joke fest, this is one right out of the box we love to watch. If you watch the series early episodes first and then hit this one, it's a shock to the system in a very good way!
