Answers: I thought it was a great programe.
Space: Above and Beyond (sometimes called Space 2063, and abbreviated as S:AAB) is a short-lived 1990s American science fiction television show on the FOX Network, created and written by Glen Morgan and James Wong. Originally planned for five seasons, it ran only for the 1995–1996 season. It was nominated for two Emmy Awards and one Saturn Award.
The show, set in the years 2063–2064, focuses on a group of United States Marines, members of the United States Marine Corps Space Aviator Cavalry, 58th Squadron, or the "Wildcards". They are based on the space carrier USS Saratoga, and act as infantry and pilots of SA-43 Endo/Exo-Atmospheric Attack Jet ("Hammerhead") fighters.
The show depicted a more rigid command structure and organization of forces than contemporary science-fiction shows like Babylon 5 and Star Trek. The show remains something of a cult series. This is partially related to the fact that the series received significantly better ratings during its second run on the Sci Fi Channel, as compared to the mediocre ratings in its initial run on the FOX Network. Criticism has been voiced by the producers, citing the lack of marketing, frequent slot changes, and constant pre-emption for sporting events as responsible for its poor ratings while running on the Fox Network.
mightve got cancelled or they just dont show it anymore
i did to but not enough folks did so now it's in reruns on the sci fi channel. dammit..it had GREAT potential! but then so did Firefly..and look what happened there.
