Mod outer space caper
involves murder and an asteroid made of sapphire, Groovy! That's Warren
Mitchell (Professor Crevett in the "Crawling Eye") playing the part
of the evil, Hundred Percent Hubbard, and the Lady Clem also starred as Maya
in KTMA's "Cosmic Princess". The FX team on this flick would go on
to win Oscars for movies like "Alien" and "Super Man".
That's
the trivia, how about the riffing? It's tough to
give any season one episode more than a B grade due to the many sparse moments.
But there are some real good quips sprinkled throughout -especially the ones aimed at
Clementine's hats and hairstyles, and the many that made fun of the big dumb
English guy (great voice Crow).
Plus, Joel makes like a Go-Go Dancer in the theater and plays
'Rock 'em Sock 'em Robots' with Tom and Crow during a Host Segment. The inventions were cute; the Mads celebrity toothpaste was very evil and very
funny.
Fun, yeah that's what this was, fun. Not a bad movie either and
it has a great '60s pop theme, sung by Julie Driscoll.
Host Segments
Intro: Joel explains the premise. Invention: Joel demonstrates the food transporter while enjoying some milk and cookies. The Mad’s present ‘celebrity toothpaste’. Segment 1: Space program pageant. Segment 2: A look at games that will be played in the future. Segment 3: A zero gravity fight on the SOL. End: Good thing/Bad thing. Viewer mail. No Stinger -But if I chose one? 100% Hubbard apparently Moo's, then sez -"Would you stop fiddling with that thing!"
