its not doing well, we want to kill it, they dump it in a graveyard slot and then point to the viewing figures saying 'oh look, its crap'

One thing about SAAB being scrapped was the FOX Network wanted Wong, and Morgan back on X-Files. How else do you do that when you have two great TV shows. Sabotage is such a mean word, but what else can you call it.

I still have fond memories of S:AAB. As I understand it, it was Chris Carter that exerted pressure on Fox to get his best writers back, hence the bad time slots for the show. It stayed around for one year at least, so I am thankful for that.

In my own case, I would love to have a Hammerhead pilot helmet. I've got a replica flight suit stiched up from a standard issue Nomex military one. It does the job even if the collar isn't quite right and has too big a US flag patch on one arm, but the rest of the patches are there and in the proper places at least.
 
I'd love a helmet also, but the guys I know that have them won't let them go. One guy has around 4 of them, and still no go on releasing them. I do have the cockpit, so it would be a great match to have one of the flight helmets.

On an other note the SpaceAboveAndBeyond.tv site forum page has been down a while. Damn spammers did that. It took me a while to track down the site owner, and offered to help, but he didn't except the offer. I guess he thinks the site is better off not up than fixing it. It is a shame, since it is the only SAAB web site.
 
Hi Guys,
Just thought I would share some of what I have left after the show ended.

Enjoy.

Hi guys,
I have 2 of the black helmets. I still have the masters to the helmet camera and the ground back pack ( the ones that the tubes go to the helmet) as well.
I am going through storage and cleaning things out and finding a lot of stuff that I had forgot about.
I also just found my set of dog tags.

Hello GoldCylon... My name is Kim Bailey, if you look online or in the Credits of SAAB you will find I am the guy who designed your SA-43 Cockpit. Congrats on the win and it seems you go the good one. If you have any questions on your cockpit let me know. We still have the power supply that runs that cockpit and if you look on some of the circuit boards you will see SFX Starlight Effects on the circuit trace. Should you restore the cockpit and get it working again, let me know. All of my photos were stolen in 1996 and I am looking to take a set of new ones. If you like, you can reach me at kim@kimbailey.com

The best SAAB info site still running now are the subforums at Scifihero.net, located here:

How many people does it take to scre... I mean, remove a 12 foot, 1500 lb crate out of a truck? Answer: 4.
How many should it take? Probably more than we had. :D

I had removed the left "monitor" myself before the picture was taken, so I DO actually have it. However, there is supposed to be
another display under the flight yoke that my cockpit is missing. :(

It needs some serious stripping (bow chicka wow wow) and repainting. Plus that whole hooking up the lighting thing.
*sigh*

Can't help with the Chig rifle, but a couple of people are working
on getting the Marine rifles done.

Just have to see who makes it to the finish line first. :)

The show also suffered from the fact that you'd miss half of it because it got preempted for football season or they didn't bother putting it on at all. There was like 5 episodes i didn't see because the games always ran over into its time slot.
 
yep. Another show that suffered because the brain trust at TCFox doesn't understand SciFi. Firefly anyone?

I can't understand why nobody picked the series up for production after Fox closed the doors. They had all the sets, props and costumes available at that time. Sadly, the vast majority of it all is long gone now.

The Saratoga set for example was burned down. :(

Granted, at the time of production it was one of the most expensive hourly dramas to produce due in part to the CG
used.

Fox does this to all its shows: married with children, Futurama, family guy, and tons of others with potential like this. I'd have loved to get alot of this stuff but i was in early highschool lol.
