Review: Great dvd - Bought as a gift. They loved it Review: WILDCARDS ARE GO! - I have fond memories of watching this after Newsnight on BBC2 on Friday nights in the mid-late 90s. As you can tell I didn't get out much in those days - some things never change! Fantastic mixture of Guadalcanal Diary/Pacific island-hopping WW2 strategy and tactics plus Starship Troopers futurology. Fave story arc: Chiggy Von Richtoffen and in particular "The Angriest Angel" when TC McQueen strapped on his flying jacket once more to avenge the death of a colleague at the wingtips of the Chig ace! Stirring stuff- loved the payoff line "And what was it all for anyway?" Although my memory could be being selective on that point. I seem to remember the 2 part story arc started of with Patsy Cline's Crazy while Vansen stared out of a window at the stars. Great stuff - lots of themes I'd only seen before in WW2 movies by Sam Fuller, Fritz Lang and Nicholas Ray. Standing on the shoulders of giants - never fails. After all that its a shame its not out on region 2! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Contributor | James Morrison, Joel De La Fuente, Kirsten Cloke, Lanei Chapman, Morgan Weisser, R.

As you can tell I didn't get out much in those days - some things never change! Fantastic mixture of Guadalcanal Diary/Pacific island-hopping WW2 strategy and tactics plus Starship Troopers futurology.

Stirring stuff- loved the payoff line "And what was it all for anyway?" Although my memory could be being selective on that point.

Great stuff - lots of themes I'd only seen before in WW2 movies by Sam Fuller, Fritz Lang and Nicholas Ray. Standing on the shoulders of giants - never fails. After all that its a shame its not out on region 2! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Cancelled too soon. *by M***T on 26 August 2013* This is one of those series that should have been allowed to grow. When you watch it you can believe it is the prototype for the rebooted Battlestar Galactica series. A cramped claustrophobic setting, almost monochrome colour scheme, harsh lighting, lots of facial close ups and introspective dialogue. The series followed the exploits of a young group of marines called the Wild Cards aboard a space-going aircraft carrier called the Saratoga. As marines they are called upon to fly fighters as well as battle on the ground. In one episode they even fight in cramped tunnels like the Cu Chi tunnels in the Vietnam war. The team consists of 3 men and 2 women, one of whom rises to become their captain. All have joined the marines for different reasons, all have different backgrounds but all are bonded together in the heat of war against an unknown and superior enemy. Created by X-Files alumni Morgan and Wong SAAB was unfairly dubbed Melrose Space because of its youthful good looking stars but it went way beyond explosions and a few toothy smiles. The characters grew and showed their strengths and flaws. You got to learn their stories and see their humanity. The plots are frequently inspired by old war movies and events but add in dark conspiratorial X-Files overtones. We never really get to know the enemy which adds to the suspense. The Earth people are obviously less than perfect and we see that some figures in government and big business have less than honourable motives which casts doubt on whether we are the good guys or not. Throw in the racial intolerance towards the in-vitro humans and the complications added by the duplicitous AIs and you have all the ingredients for compelling story telling. The set and craft design was top notch although the CGI was lacking compared to Babylon 5. Maybe the effects would have improved if there had been a second series. That's not to say the effects were terrible, merely serviceable for the time when they were filmed. This box set includes the pilot film which follows the recruitment and training of our heroes. It even has the splendid R Lee Ermey as the drill sergeant. James Morrison deserves mention as the squad's hard ass CO Colonel T C McQueen. Despite being an in-vitro loner who lives for the corps he develops an affection and protectiveness towards his charges that really shines through. Tucker Smallwood is perfectly cast as the blues playing hard bitten commander of the Saratoga and there were an array of guest actors plucked from the world of TV to play one-off and recurring characters. No overshadowing the stories with big name guests in this series. The set also includes a documentary on the series tech, lots of stills and some cast interviews from 1996. Not a lot but I guess it's tough to find material for a single series cancelled 17 years ago. I'm just happy to get a region 2 box set, I've waited years for one to become available. Watch the show, enjoy the stories and don't get too hung up on the effects. Most of the time you won't even notice that they're a little creaky. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/51725033-space-above-and-beyond-collectors-edition-dvd-includes-pilot-episode](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/51725033-space-above-and-beyond-collectors-edition-dvd-includes-pilot-episode) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-07-08*
