a bit of a let down
By Brian from London , 27 Jun 2006[Highly rated reviewer]
after a relatively interesting first series (though hardly a total rip-snorter), this second series is an enormous let-down
each episode struggles to hold interest for the full 50 minutes (often losing-steam within the first 10 minutes) - the acting reaches new heights of HAM - the dialogue between the baddies tries to aspire to Shakespeare, but the only 'Richard the Third' I could think of was rhyming-slang - the plots were unimaginative (land on planet - have a run in with baddies - escape)
to be honest, I couldn't care less if any of the 'heroes' lived or died- Was this review helpful to you?

(30)Daft, Sarcastic, Laughable Dated Memories!! Great!!
By laneyb (256 reviews) from Rochester, Kent , 16 Mar 2012The further I get into the series, the more I enjoy it. My favourite characters are Viller and Avon. I like Viller as he's just so daft I can't help but laugh at him...Avon because I find his sarcasm funny to.
Roll on the rest of the series!! I don't mind that the series is dated, of course it would be, how could it not!! I loved it when I was a kid so had to give it a shot!! Oh such memories, ha ha!!- Was this review helpful to you?

Grumpy, Sarcastic British Sci-Fi at its Best
By Bathbun (1 review) , 08 Dec 2011Love this series... ok the sets might be rubbish, the effects laughable but put that to one side for a moment and just enjoy the dialogue and story lines. This is how the British do sci-fi well, in fighting amongst the crew, sarcarsm, realistic characters (not perfect shining models of society) - and that is what makes Blakes 7 so watchable still.- Was this review helpful to you?

too many writers after series 1
By a customer , 22 Jun 2011The first series had only one writer. the 2nd, 3rd and 4th had several writers and this is why the series suffers.
This is why later series had a mixed bag of good, okay and bad episodes.- Was this review helpful to you?

Bit of a mixed bag.
By MAXIMILIAN (176 reviews) from BURNHAM , 08 Dec 2010This series of Blake's 7 is a bit hit and miss. the last episodes I saw were like The Manchurian Candidate, where Blake is pre-programmed to go to some asteroid and find somebody who turns out to be Travis, Blake's nemesis. the next episode ran like a weird version of CABARET (1972), where Blake gets information on a fugitive and Avon and Villa use Orac to break the house casino. The last episode, The Keeper I can barely remember watching - something about Mideval kings and a very boring episode. I hope the next episodes are better.- Was this review helpful to you?
