  K10: First Broadcast - 6pm Sunday, 1/22/89

This movie is actually a couple of episodes from Martin Landau's dry "Space 1999" series. The riffing draws from the TV show 'Family Affair' (The bad guy looks like Mr. French), and all those Dairy Queen quips we've heard over the years? Well they get a major workout here. Not a horrible experiment but it's not their sharpest riff work either. The funniest bits are when Tom's head keep falling off (Josh enjoys a laugh at his bots expense). Joel has to tape it down in the theater "I feel lke a Nun" says Servo. The guys are real giggly during this segment; the bots fight and Tom coughs. Of Note: My copy includes the commercial Trace and Josh made for the restaurant "Pizza & Pasta".

Host Segments
Intro: The Mads present, "No-D Glasses", these are 3-D Glasses with a lens missing. Segment 1: Crows Barbershop (which will be seen again in episode #105). Segment 2: Servo learns to fly, badly. Segment 3: The bots learn that they being claimed as "Business Expenses" on Joels taxes. End: Joel and the bots play some football, it is Superbowl Sunday after all. No Stinger: but if chose one I'd go with that Jack -O- Lantern guy with the helium voice.
