Space 1999 - The Dorks


Tony's attempt to create a Margarita doesn't impress Koenig.


Men in Beige - protecting the universe from alien dorks.


The crew of Moonbase Alpha are huge fans of Fox commentator Bill O'Reilly.


In the 21st century, unisex hair designs make it difficult to discern gender.


Maya has an acid freakout after being hit by a green spotlight.


After her acid freakout, Maya needs cocaine.


Little did this man know that his grandson would play cricket for England.


Red alert is announced, and a red light flashes for everyone just in case they forgot.


Moonbase Alpha's plumbers get ready just in case the base septic system overflows.


As the base is attacked, overweight Alphans rush to protect the bases' donut stores.


Alphans reel in horror at the sight of a bright, reddish-white hot thing blocking the corridor.


In the confusion of being attacked, Tony punches Frank for making a pass at Maya.


As the battle progresses, Koenig falls asleep.


Koenig continues to sleep as the aliens stop their attack.


The alien leader gives her gang sign to frighten the Alphans. The Moon, along with most of Inglewood, now belong to the Crips.


Strangely enough, Judge Dredd is helping the Crips take over Alpha.


Carter does his "hello boys" routine to confuse the aliens.


The lights are on, but no one's home.


"Help me! I'm trapped behind this wall!"


Maya enters the alien Hair Salon. The hairstylist in the background assures her everything will be fine.


The hairstylist reels in horror at her creation.


Maya is unhappy with her do.


Koenig "presents" himself as a way of getting Maya back.


What we were after now was the old surprise visit. That was a real kick and good for laughs and lashings of the old ultraviolence.


"Welly, welly, welly, welly, welly, welly, well. To what do I owe the extreme pleasure of this surprising visit?"


Koenig admires the man's uniform. "I must get one of those" he thinks "Helena would love it".


"No time for the old in-out, love. I've just come to read the meter."


"You needn't take it any further, sir. You've proved to me that all this ultraviolence and killing is wrong, wrong, and terribly wrong. I've learned me lesson, sir. I've seen now what I've never seen before. I'm cured! Praise Bog! I'm cured!"


"So, what are doing now that the show has been cancelled?"


"Cancelled? Nooooo!!!! Is this the role I'll be remembered for? You have to be joking! Where's the Producer? I'm going to kill him!"


"And then I saw Catherine Schell chasing him with an axe..."

Space 1999 - The Immunity Syndrome


"Well, after last episode, I'm just glad to be out of the action, which gives me the chance to wring my hands and feel useless if anything goes wrong down on the planet."


In the 21st century, reflections of bright light usually indicate impending doom.


In the 21st century, people still wear false teeth.


Tony is driven mad by the bright light.


"I STILL can't get FOX on this damn thing!"


Predictably, Maya and Helena wring their hands and feel useless.


Tony begins to hunger for human brains.


In the 21st century, telescopes can shoot lasers while eye protection consists of 1960s Andy Warhol type sunglasses.


In the 21st century, RTA road crews still have morning tea breaks.


...and afternoon naps.


Frozen with fear, the ground party watch helplessly as the Commander's Eagle plummets to the ground.


Here is the ground party watching helplessly from a different perspective.


Koenig makes a radio communicator out of balsa wood, plumbing equipment, yellow sticky tape and bubble wrap.


Meanwhile, back on Alpha, Helena wrings her hands in anxiety, feeling helpless.


Suddenly the ground party discover an underground conceptual art gallery.


Maya and Helena put spacesuits on to give them the impression that they are doing something. They feel better.


Koenig, Carter and Frank begin watching Fox and Friends.


On Fox and Friends, they watch an interview with Mel Smith dressed up like a Cardassian.


Just like a pair of dogs sniffing one another.


The height of 21st century men's fashion.


That deaf, dumb and blind kid sure plays a mean pinball.


Alan, Helena and Maya prepare a futuristic mortar in case Koenig needs artillery support.


Suddenly the show ends with no explanation of what was going on. Damn you Fred Freiberger!
