NekoHomey Purely Joyful Movie!

ShangLuda Admirable film.

Humaira Grant It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

Kien Navarro Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

bkoganbing Although Space Patrol is set 500 years beyond the Star Trek TNG series it seems to be as primitive as the 20th century. Our concept of space travel seem to center on the rocket, all the science fiction shows of early television had that concept be it Rocky Jones, Tom Corbett, or even Space Patrol. No one could conceive of a ship like the Starship Enterprise.Space Patrol has Ed Kemmer and his crew, Lynn Osborn, Ken Mayer, and Nina Bara working for an outfit called United Planets as opposed to Star Trek's United Federation Of Planets. This was a futuristic law enforcement outfit tracking down villains as yet not conceived 20th century standards. In that Space Patrol seems to have anticipated the Star Trek franchise.It still amazes me though that the computer seems to have no place in science fiction programming of the time. Not on the small screen in a show like Space Patrol or on the big screen are computers even acknowledged.Like its peers Space Patrol is a museum piece and a lot of indulgence must be given in watching it.

TimesPrince Space Patrol really started a long tradition of the love of science fiction and space adventure that continues to this day. As a youth in San Francisco I watched it every chance. From this experience, when I started reading in earnest it was science fiction that I turned to, and haven't turned back since.One of my most precious possessions from childhood came from a visit of the Space Patrol cast to San Francisco. There is a page in my autograph book that I treasure signed by each of the members of the cast in their screen name. My name is Robbie, and Robbie's signature on the cast page was made with a drawing of a rocket ship that formed my impression of what a true rocket ship should be like.Space Patrol was so much a part of my life that for Christmas my brothers constructed and gave me a "spaceship control panel" with view screen, lights, and microphone (all this before any modern electronics) and my friends and I played "Space Patrol" adventures. Looking back this show was one of my best childhood memories that influenced a love of reading, sci-fi, and eventually my career in the computer industry, as well as influencing me in what real teamwork was like.This show was awesome!

franks7 Im shocked to find the omission of Carol, the commissioners daughter, from your full cast credits. She was the lovely, leggy blonde, inventor, and unofficial sweetie of Commander Corry. Space Patrol a must see for any 11 year old boy in 1951, especially the episodes that featured Carol. The name of the actress was Virginia Hewitt. Space Patrol was an inventive, budget saving endeavor in the black and white early days of Television. One episode had the rocket ship sinking into a soft planet surface, which was accomplished by pulling material upwards around the model ship, creating the illusion of sinking. A great series for a wide eyed 11 yr old.

IsleManage When Kit Cory disappeared on a secret mission to Plannet "X:", his younger brother Buzz took over the fight for right in Space. The Actor who played Kit Corey is my father Franklin Mullen. He is still alive and well in Las Vegas Nevada. He was using the Acting name "Glen Dennings" back then. I guess his agents thought that was better? I wasn't born till 1953 but I remember seeing reruns on TV. Too funny with rockets on wires with sparklers on the back against a painting of space in the background. The show I believe was the actual, first series in the Kiniscope period of Television and the old spools they kept them on were easily corruptible. The show was shot live. My father was in many old westerns and war movies too including Battle Cry and Command Decision. He was a good looking Jeffery Hunter type who my mother had dated too. But Dad won her over. BTW, My mother Rosemary was one of Jeffrey;'s last friends before his death. My father left Hollywood to do Theater at the Pheonix little Theater in Scottsdale Arizona and became a successful pool Contractor. He survived a plane crash where the Cesna wrapped around a Cable on a landing pattern. Later he was a Pioneer in the Stero Industry and moved back to Brentwood Calif. He has always been my hero and still is. As I write this he is 79 years old and I hope he'll be around a good while longer. I tried Acting myself but lost interest. I am currently developing a TV production company in Central America. I wish my dad had grabbed a bunch of the old Ray Guns. They're great collector Items.
