V is a two-part 1983 US alien invasion sci-fi TV mini-series. Flying saucers arrive on Earth. The aliens appear to be friendly. Appearances can be deceptive. The special effects have a very 80s arcade game look. Fairly entertaining.

Rod Serling's The After Hours, still my all-time favourite episode of The Twilight Zone. Has that wonderful subtle sense of slowly increasing unease. Great performance by Anne Francis. I've seen it many times and I like it more each time.

Voyagers! (1982) is a kids' sci-fi time travel series that plays fast and loose with history and is nothing more than a light-hearted adventure series. But it's lively and highly enjoyable.

📺 I love my '80s action shows.

Averages from the last 7 episodes I reviewed/rated.

1️⃣ #Riptide (8.4/10)
2️⃣ #HardcastleAndMcCormick (8.3/10)
2️⃣ #TJHooker (8.3/10)
4️⃣ #MikeHammer (6.1/10)

📺 Kinda not surprised to see that I like Hammer least, because the scripts are often weak/average.

📺 Kinda not surprised to see that I like Riptide most, because the scripts are mostly very good.

What's YOUR favourite from these 4?
