Cleopatra 2525
An episode guide
This half hour show was another fun and light combination of jokes, action and eye candy. Like "She Spies", it used a "Charlies Angels" format but in a SciFi setting. Machines called Baileys ruled the surface of the earth and humans lived Underground. The three lead women fought the bad guys for an unseen boss named Voice with a male intermediary named Mauser. |
