So...
Trying to look into this Brats of the Lost Nebula show and...
*no fan sites
*practically no fan art
*nothing about the series being out on DVD, or on Hulu or iTunes or whatever. There's bits and bobs of video stuff on YouTube (including a promo piece featuring The Crystal Method blasting away in the background, show's creator Dan Clark talking about the show, early concept art of the characters (Lavana is inexplicably "Selene" and Tripley has an eyepatch), and, oddly enough, space battle footage from Space: Above and Beyond and Babylon 5), and more bits and bobs on Vimeo (including some behind the scenes of the four puppeteers it takes to bring the Big Bad to life, puppeteers trying to figure out how the bad guy alien mechanical mooks should walk, and a twenty-minute segment of Brian Henson being shown the puppets in progress)...
The show's creator, Dan Clark, is still working... He was a story editor for a season of Yo Gabba Gabba!, amongst other things...
What I see of the show seems to anticipate things that came later... The main bad guy makes me think of Scorpius from Farscape, and Sarris from Galaxy Quest... down to bits of his armor moving of their own accord. The technology and the designs for the hero characters also remind me of Farscape to a degree.
Strangely enough, also thinking of that show Space Cases that once was shown on Nickelodeon ages ago... one of its stars (for season one, anyway) was a pre-Kaylee Jewel Staite, with guest appearances by Bill Mumy (one of the show's creators) and Mark Hamill as silver-skinned Liverpool-accented aliens, and George Takei as a reptilian warlord. I liked the android lady, Thelma.
Anyway...
