Funny, silly

"Flash Gordon" is a very funny show and is (deliberately) campy and somewhat silly. I like it a lot, and agree that you need to watch the whole series from the beginning to know what's going on.

its ok

this show is a good campy sci fi but it doent even have the same feel as the oreginal i did like it a little thow but the fact that the only thing they realy kept from the movie is the names kind of sets me off to it so if you never seen the movie you will like this but if you have it will most likely disapoint.

Enjoyable!

Flash Gordon is a clever interpretation of the comic strip, film, and classic television series. Although it did seem rather slow for a few episodes in the middle of the season, upon its return from its break it became more "epic" than before. It would help to have watched the movies, but it concludes cleverly and leaves a rather nice transfer into a new season.

Interesting Adaptation, Horrible Acting

"Flash Gordon" holds true to the general quality of shows produced by the Sci-Fi Channel. It is a generally mediocre quality show that does not hold you on the edge of your seat, and is useless to watch without starting from the beginning.

Flash Gordon is a character which has managed to stand the test of time and can still manage to hold a fan base.

I believe the series is best summed up by a review coming from Travis Fickett, comparing the Flash Gordon series of 2007 to the relative success of the 1930's film and the original comic strip. He states, "Rather than emulate that pulp spirit, this series takes it out back and puts a bullet in its head."

You ARE able to sit through and watch this, and even be entertained at times, but it is definitely not a series worth writing home about.

I do support the fact that hulu.com has places this show on it's website, as I believe that viewers should have every opportunity to follow a television show. What I don't agree with (though I don't necessarily place all the blame upon hulu.com) is that so few episodes are available for viewing (on many shows available.) With this show in particular, only a few days ago, there were two (non-consecutive) episodes available for viewing. Now, there is only one! This cat and mouse game has got to end.

No idea what's going on

I watched Season 1, episode 13, as it was the only one available. The episode was ok, nothing exciting.

Since I don't have the opportunity to watch the series, starting at episode 13 is a joke. The story's apparently rich setting was nearly meaningless. It makes no sense to have 1 or 2 episodes (I see two now, 13 and 19) with a complicated setting, plot and multiple characters. If I get a chance to see the pilot or the 1st part I might be interested in the series.

For the record, I've enjoyed both Stargates, Battlestar Galactica, Dr. Who, definitely the Dune mini-series and quite a few other productions. Just a disappointed and confused fan.
