BTIES: Sci-F-eye chart...


Thanks to JD for the linkspam! =)

I'll chuck my answers in a comment.

* September 9, 2010. Posted an updated list of answers with my gaps filled by responses found in comments. Still can't get or commit to the first and last logo characters from the last row. Boo.

* September 8, 2010. Revisiting and thinking—What? No LOST? No LOST IN SPACE? No SPACE:1999? No B5? No TWILIGHT ZONE (or could that be FANTASTIC FOUR =)? No WHO or HORRIBLE, Phd? Perhaps the chart is limited by font rights (copy- not civil- =) issues? I have not sought out an answer key. Do feel free to correct my erroneous guesses in the comments.

Keep on geekin on~

Three I should've gotten way earlier...

I only know them now from giving up and scanning comments at the original post. I guess I was somehow blocked against matching cartoons. Bleah. : P
