	I think that anything "Star Trek Like" should be put into this news-
group.  Thus, "Space: 1999", "Battlestar Galactica", and possibly even "Star
Wars" belong right here.  After all, it's more or less the same type of thing,
i.e., a series rather than just a single movie.

	Keeping with my above opinion, I occaisionally watch Space:1999 (it
isn't on as often as it used to be, I guess), and a long time ago, I noticed
the replacement of the "Maya" character.  (The one who could change into other
nifty forms).  My questions:

	1. What happened to Maya, as ar as the story goes?

	2. Did whoever it was that played her quit, or what?

	3. Who is this boring bozo they replaced her with?  He seems
	to me to just be some old fart who can't do anything "neato".

Are you referring to Victor as Maya's replacement?  I believe you
have that backwards.  Maya was Victor's replacement!  However, I
could be wrong, they could be making more episodes, but I thought
the thing died a few years ago.  I only saw one or two seasons
with Maya.

I'm with Curry:  Star Trek may be big enough to have numerous fan
clubs around the country, but let's let these smaller ones in for their
buffs.  It shouldn't steal a whole lot from the trekkies, but it will
fill up the group.
