Cleopatra 2525

An episode guide
by John T Burt - 2003

This half hour show was another fun and light combination of jokes, action and eye candy. Like "She Spies" and "Charmed", 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.

NOTE: In the Spring of 2004 the SciFi channel finally ran almost the whole series again. For some reason though, they didn't run the last two episodes. I already had the penultimate episode on tape so I reviewed it, but not the final episode. I'll review that one if I ever see it again.

When the show was canceled, the shows from 2.09 on were broadcast as one hour episodes. The credits indicated 2.09 was a part 1 and 2 combination. I continued the 1/2 hour format for the rest for continuity. Some appeared to have solid break points at about 30 minutes.
