The based on the books Brandis-liked radio plays sensationally good. Brandis, a kind of peace-loving space Preusse, the more often stunned his frustration over smug people times with alcohol. Heroes with such "traces" I find it exciting and the idea of telling their history appealed to me therefore. Finally, there are the existing material enough references to the past that can be pick up. But the spark will not jump with me, even after the third space cadets sequence. Mir, the performer simply too young. 20 would be ok, but childlike 16? The comparison to the ??? and TKKG imposes itself because on a formal. The head between the adult and Brandis him as a teenager is enormous. All that spoke to me on the old series, I do not find in the new episodes so far, unfortunately again. Also I wish more explanations of the framework for action. Exactly why Hirschmann is a political star? What is concretely the hazards of the republics. What exactly is the Vega and why do they exist? Unfortunately I have not read the books and I would like to be picked up by a prequel therefore more. The old Brandis stories have their relevance for me is always drawn from the thematic exaggeration: environmental disasters, upgrade, life concepts (Pilgrim 200), forms of society in the struggle together, dictatorship vs. Democracy, etc. In the new radio plays me this categorization is missing.
