One of my favorite shows from the early 1970's was also a show that lasted just one season. UFO was a cross between James Bond and Star Trek. It was a BBC show that ran in the US from 1972-1973. The show dealt with a secret organization called SHADO that was set up to defend the Earth from aliens who were carving up humans for body parts. A kind of involuntary organ donor program.
Barry Gray composed the theme to this show. In my opinion, the music ranks right up there with Hawaii Five-0 and Mission: Impossible.
A feature film version of UFO is due out in 2012.

Return with us now to the era of Colonel Hogan and Colonel Klink, an open channel "D", Dr. and Mr. Spock and a post-Checkers Tricky Dick. Discuss, reminisce or just enjoy.
