best assignment?
Assignment 1 is a great start to the series and they found a good child actor to play the boy. He is very convincing.
For me Assignment 2 the best. I could see that being remade as a film even. The corridor, which turns into a submarine, is a great testimony to what can be achieved without using special effects and relying instead on tight direction and acting.
Assignment 3 doesn't work as well despite the decent writing. The effects are the worst of all the assignments. A time machine derived from animals is not so much a bad idea but as with other assignments, this enemy should not have been given corporeal form especially not as a silvery grey hand puppet.
Assingment 4 is great but the acting and direction not as good as one & 2
5 is underrated it seems. It's well put together, quite tidy plot wise, but perhaps lacks a definite enemy or force which S&S have to overcome, so overall suspense and the conclusion is less satisfying.
The final assignment is again brilliant and to this day, I still want to know what happens next. I feel a bit like S&S waiting in space.
