FORGOTTEN SCI FI TV PRESENTS: "Cleopatra 2525" (2000)

"Cleopatra 2525" is an American science fiction television show that aired for two seasons starting in 2000, featuring a 20th-century exotic dancer who awakens in the 26th century. She joins a team of women fighting against the Baileys, flying machines that control the Earth's surface. The show, created by Sam Raimi's Renaissance Pictures, presents a world where humanity lives underground to evade the machines. With elements of satire and camp, the series explores themes of resistance and survival in a technologically dominated future. Despite its interesting elements, the show's revealing outfits and late-night airtime contributed to low viewership and cancellation on a cliffhanger.
