Saturday Morning's Forgotten Heroes: Space Sentinels in The Prime Sentinel (1977)

Y'know, I get the feeling that some of the Space Sentinels scripts could've gotten more mileage had they been written for a certain sci-fi franchise four years earlier.

Take for example "The Prime Sentinel". We find that there are other Sentinel teams across the galaxy, and one such Sentinel asks our Earth team for help when the titular Sentinel is being besieged by alien attackers. Sentinel 1 (George DiCenzo) came off flatter than usual. DiCenzo also voices Hercules, and I think either he or Lou Scheimer (Moe, Prime Sentinel) voiced the visiting Sentinel...



This series was the only cartoon credit known for actress Dee Timberlake (Astria). Hmmmmm.

Not one of the better entries in the series.

Rating: C.
