Hey, I liked that show a lot, even if they made the Chinese guy a little wimpy toward the end.
But I liked how their tech seems so plausible as compared to ST or SW or anything else for that matter.
But they did seem like they would be the universe that the Alien movies could be a reality in. Even the tech style matches. If it was Trek, Spock would've mindmelded with an Alien and next thing you know, they'll have an embassy in San Francisco.
I only wish Space: Above and Beyond would have lasted a few seasons longer.
