“Operation Kid Brother” was one of my favorite episodes. It was a good spoof of the real Bond movies.
Nothing to do with anything, but I chanced to remember a question that I’ve been wanting answered for well over a decade:
In the Sci-Fi Era door sequence, what’s the little creature that moves from one side of the corridor to the other?
Thanks. :-)
I think it’s simply meant to be a cockroach.
Perhaps, but what KIND of cockroach? Robotic? Demonic? Mutated? Extraterrestrial? Extradimensional? Extratemporal? A were-cockroach, perhaps? SO many possibilities. ;-) Whatever else can be said about it, though, it was a living creature (I mean, unless it was a robot, I guess) that inhabited the Satellite of Love, and Mike & the Bots saw it every time they went into the theater and every time they returned to the bridge. Seems to me as if, since the writers went to the trouble of creating it in the first place, presumably for some actual REASON, it should have turned up on the bridge at some point. We can but hope that it survived the Satellite crash.
I know. I’m overthinking it. I do that sometimes. I enjoy it. :-)
On a separate note, just think of the nannite infestation that Wisconsin must have experienced after the crash. Plenty of potential super-villain/super-hero origin material, right there. ;-)
