    I have absolutely never seen anything like this movie before. You have to see this movie.

    The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

    Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

    Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.

    "I mean, come on.. an astronaut attempting suicide because of unrequited love of other astronaut who she slept with in 90210 fashion. Give us a break, this would never happen in the space program and this is an insult to the real NASA employees and Air Force Men and women who do there jobs with the Space program with professionalism and great respect." In light of recent events in the astronaut corps this 7 year old comment is something the author may wish to take back...Yes, the show could be unrealistic (well totally unrealistic at times) but it was a fun show to watch regardless. I would love to have it available on DVD at some point.

    The Cape was a good show but never given the chance to find an audience or should I say the audience couldn't find the show. In my area it played at 1:30am on Saturday nights. The networks probably would have done it in even faster. Later I saw one of the actors selling real estate on HGTV House Hunters. With a large cast and a lot of location shooting it was probably and expensive show to do. The success of SPACE COWBOYS (AWFUL) tells me that a show about the US space program could have been successful if it had been given a good time slot. I wish the one season was available of DVD. Since it involved NASA the show had a real feeling about it. The theme music was also very good. One of the final shows that involved a Russian capsule with dead Cosmonauts aboard was excellent.

    That negative Titusville comment was so ridiculous it should never been printed. -- There was more truth in those behind-the-scene episodes than he/she could imagine. It was purposely kept low-key, with most shoots off-base to MINIMIZE any impact on Launch Processing.The only show we've seen come down the cinematic pike that did not overly romanticize the all-so-human aspects of our "Ascans" and Flight folks.It was one HELLUVA good show and the effort to bring it back keeps on growing..

    I went to KSC, Kennedy Space Center, during the time of this show and there was no mention of it anywhere and nobody seemed to know anything about it, at least they said. I do believe it had the best of intentions, a realistic show about NASA astronauts but it all seemed so unbelievable that nobody really took this show seriously. Anybody who knows anything about the US Space Program knows that it's headquatered at Johnson Space Center in Houston, TX, not at KSC, which is a launch facility and Air Force Base. The Astronauts seemed more like 90210 teens than true astronauts and the stories and plots reflected this. The training in the Space Program is so controlled that if you even showed signs of suicidal tendencies it would be the end of your career not only for space travel but flight as well. I mean, come on.. an astronaut attempting suicide because of unrequited love of other astronaut who she slept with in 90210 fashion. Give us a break, this would never happen in the space program and this is an insult to the real NASA employees and Air Force Men and women who do there jobs with the Space program with professionalism and great respect. So, I'm gald to see that this show is history now and that know one really took it seriously, except maybe Corbin and that Baldwin guy. Hey Corbin, save your sex antics and mellodrama for the new LA Law the new generation, and those Denist movies you do and keep it out of the US Space program.
