This will be dating myself SO badly, but when I was in school my friends and I were briefly fans of an already-old show called Blake's 7. It was full of awesome 80s costumes, weird special effects, and a cavalcade of familiar British actors. We loved that it didn't look all that much more polished than the SF series we videotaped in the subbasement. But some of the actors were really quite talented, and I definitely see its influences on other shows. It was created by the writer who created the Daleks on Dr Who (unless I am completely confusing different fandoms). We did tons of art and cosplay, a flock of young girls and maybe two guys. Then we all became Robin of Sherwood fans... (yes, another old show. But I'm also a huge Rat Patrol and Classic Trek fan, so... old shows are great :) )
