"paper-mache sculpture of all the stuff from SF that RTD's enjoyed in the last 20 years."
Try closer to 40 or 50 years. The whole "Creatures without bodies/ of pure consciousness" shtick was straight out of original series Star Trek in the 60's. THEY even pulled that one several times over their 3-4 years. (And heavens know, it probably reaches further back than that!) Sparkling clouds of lights, anyone? An entire village that looks sort of Medieval, but the "People" are pacifists and won't let Kirk and the Klingons fight, and then they all disappear?...
