Taryn74 November 11, 2014 Share November 11, 2014 It was pretty much as boring as I remembered it. Link to comment

joelene November 11, 2014 Share November 11, 2014 I tried to watch this episode during the summer actually but, yeah, that eventually happened at Casa Joelene as well. I think I made it as far as when Space Alien Mars Ghost Face! flew into that NASA lady's car window, but then I opened my eyes and it was morning. Link to comment
queequeg November 11, 2014 Share November 11, 2014 My plan is to get really, really drunk and then watch it... Link to comment
joelene November 11, 2014 Share November 11, 2014 (edited) As for the plot itself.. I'm not sure I ever really got it. Space Ghost got the austronaut to fuck with equipment and stuff? So that they wouldn't be able to continue their exploration? 'Cuz it was possessing that guy, and that was the reason? It wanted people to not come near it/Mars? Did it hitchhike to Earth or did it travel from Mars everytime it attacked? And then it tried to kill that lady because she was... Ugh. Brain pain. Edited November 11, 2014 by joelene Link to comment
queequeg November 11, 2014 Share November 11, 2014 All I remember is Mulder nerding out over being at the space center and meeting Col. Belt. Link to comment
janestclair November 11, 2014 Share November 11, 2014 All I remember is Mulder nerding out over being at the space center and meeting Col. Belt. Same. That and maybe something about the space shuttle being sabotaged. Or something. And then at the end he killed himself, much like I wanted to while watching the episode in the past. On the bright side, I think we've found a cure for insomnia. Watch Space. You'll be out like a light in 5 minutes. 1 Link to comment
Bastet November 12, 2014 Share November 12, 2014 (edited) I remember: 1. Scully teasing Mulder about his fanboy ways. I wanted to be an astronaut when I was a child, and I maintained an interest in the space program, but I still greatly enjoyed her mocking him. 2. EMTs heeding Mulder's instructions overruling MEDICAL DOCTOR Scully's orders when Col. Belt keeled over. Whatever, CC; you're so far up Mulder's ass you're wearing him for a hat. 3. Mulder expositioning everything happening in mission control, as if Scully - and the audience - were addled. 4. A lot of archival footage clearly inserted to fill the time CC was too stoned to write actual script pages. (Yeah, yeah, it was to help keep the budget down. I like my version better, so I'm sticking to it. After all, CC didn't have the budget excuse come Redux time.) Edited November 12, 2014 by Bastet Link to comment
queequeg November 13, 2014 Share November 13, 2014 I haven't been sleeping well the last week or two. Will try watching Space tonight as a treatment for insomnia and report back.. 2 Link to comment
queequeg November 13, 2014 Share November 13, 2014 So Space failed even as a sleep aid. *yawn* Pass the coffee... Link to comment
supposebly January 10, 2015 Share January 10, 2015 I tried. I failed. I can't stay focused with this. It's not even in the so bad it's good category. So I took a shower and made some tea instead and listened to it with half an ear. I did find Michelle rather annoying this time around while previously, I thought she was the highlight of the episode. Link to comment
