Default The Super Scouts Part two Redux

And here is part two.

Part two of what ultimately was the death knell of Galactica 1980.

Mindful of the network's insistence the show be made more "kid friendly", they added a gaggle of children to the show and gave them super powers. After all, what kid would not want to turn invisible,leap over tall trees, and be smarter than the average bear? The problem is, kids didn't watch the show. And neither did adults, apparently.

Continuing on our course to see if any of the episodes can be saved, I present to you The Super Scouts, part one, with the following changes:

Inane Dialogue Reduced - Why does every Galactican kid (and many adults) talk as if their dialogue was written by a computer? Still, I've managed to remove the most skin-crawling examples.

Dr. Zee Zeroed Out - Even Robbie Rist apparently couldn't stand the role, and he was changed out for Patrick Stewart. Of course, not THE Patrick Stewart. A better casting decision would have been simply that white light alone.

The Super Scouts Unsupersized - Well, there was no way to eliminate them altogether, and some of them are actually quite cute. They are much more tolerable without the big "S" on their chests.

Very good, and not even one glimpse of Dr. Zee

No Zee is the best Zee.

I haven't had time to sit and watch these yet... helping some people with a project. But want to watch through and comment back to you. Can't wait to see how it goes without Zee. Sadly couldn't cut the kids out or there would be no episode, but zero Zee is a major start!

Part two gave me the most trouble so far, as I had to cut out a pretty big scene. It was all Dr. Zee and the Be Kind To Your Environment blah blah. Really slowed things down.

Always look forward to yours and everyone's comments.

Pearls of Wisdom - I want my children to have all the things I couldn't afford. Then I want to move in with them.
