Welcome to my unofficial Space: Above and Beyond episode guide. I've aimed the guide at being less of a summary of the episode plot(s), and more of a look at trivia, production goofs, great lines and other personal glimpses for each episode. External contributions are not just welcome, but actively encouraged! If you have something to contribute, please let me know - I'll credit anything new to the first person to submit the material... no matter how small, or trivial (trivia's what this guide is all about!).

This guide is currently "work in progress". The content of each entry will certainly change over the coming months, and more episodes will be added as and when I review them.

So, why this concentration on more than just the plot lines? Well, the main reason is that there are far better plot guides out there - I'm terrible at summarising a plot, because I either fail to capture the essence in a few short lines, or end up waffling on about the smallest of scenes... The other reason is that I'm a big fan of Phil Farrand's excellent "The Nitpicker's Guide for..." which are almost excessive guides to all the wobbly sets, plot oversights and failed treknology explanations found in the various incarnations of Star Trek. It's all done from a fan's point of view, light hearted in tone and aimed at being a fun, but useful, reinterpretation of Trekdom. X-Philes do it, so why not Space: Above and Beyond fans?

Hence I thought I'd kickstart S:AAB netpicking... backed up by personal opinion, trivia, quotes and a few Intelligence Debriefing questions to test your observation skills...

(Note: I don't have a video of the pilot episode, nor have I ever seen it!)
