I was watching old eps on Space 1999 on Youtube the other day..
I will say that some of the modelwork still looks excellent, even on a 40 inch screen. However, a lot of the "science" in the series was, at best, a little implausible, and at worst, totally impossible. However, in the early 70s, I think they could get away with that because every Sci Fi series seemed to use wildly inaccurate science.
Now, we've had a few series that have at least tried to introduce correct science (TNG, for all it's faults, was apparently quite good at this), so I think the fans will expect the storylines to be at least vaguely plausible.
