I almost believed it's true, I was screaming with the alternate season two titles when I saw "Featuring the Moonbase Alpha Girls" then the long lost alternative ending.. and HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Brilliant stuff!! Great! Great job! I'm blown away! I still laugh at The "Babs" part....your narrator should get a job in this stuff...lovely voice!! More Please!
I've seen Space:1999 fanfiction that was way better than the actual Season 2 scripts. Maybe the fanfiction writers should have been around to write scripts at the time (sigh...). Hilarious parody, in any case...
GREAT WORK! I also got suckered in pretty well until the Space:1999 Girls showed up. I'm not sure anyone could sell any DVD that features Fred "Series Wrecker" Freiberger as much, though.
To celebrate, I saw the 1st episode on the day it was set. I remember first seeing the series as a kid when it came out - how futuristic it looked - it's weird that 1999 is now in the past.
I used to love Space 1999 when I was a kid, I kinda still love it now for the memories, and this is the best, funniest, most on the spot stuff I have seen about the prog in years. B****y well done mate, it's brilliant !!!
at the start I was really excited...wow...finally a DVD release of Space: 1999!!! And how cool to buy the DVD and find 'exclusive rare footage' of a 2nd season alternative intro that was never used...and then the 'Igyan premiere' alternative ending to the pilot...like you had the total inside track...until the bad editing and the bad Martin Landau spoof...got me good...nice job!
Love it -showed up everything that was wrong with the stupid second season, Fred Hamburger should have been shot, god those stupid monster costumes...
Oh lordy, that was amazing ! The Japanese titles was excellent ! :lolololol: Tremendous piece of work, I actually enjoyed it more than some of season 2's episodes !
This really had me going until the Breakaway alternative edition! Absolutely brilliant; so refreshing to see a truly funny and heartwarming tribute. This must have taken you hours! More, more, more...!
The saddest part of all, aside from the glut of Season 2's "costume shop aliens", was seeing the "Moonbase Alpha Girls", ala "Charlie's Angels in Space". Note how the brunette in the hallway flings her hair back to advertise that she's a happinin' 70's babe. Not to be outdone, the blonde walking next to her does the same about 2 seconds later.
I have to say, you had me there for a while (I did wonder at the Alpha Girls then debated whether Gerry Anderson had stolen a march on his 70s rivals). You're clearly a massive fan, illconprods, which can only lead us both to wonder what this show could have been without the catastrophic 2nd series.
"Year 2" of Space: 1999 was a traumatizing experience for a 10 year old back then. It was like going from an extremely trippy "high" to an all-time "low", without drugs. I was quite angry about the second season for years. Now I can finally laugh at the awful mess.
Brilliant! I laughed out loud. It really is so damning of the second season - probably deserved. The drawing of John Koenigs head on the Japanese titles is a stroke of genius. I'd love to see UFO parodied like this. 10/10.
The 1st season was brilliant in look and style, but was flawed. The 2nd season was horrible, period. Your video made me see what a joke it really was. So horrible in fact that it was laugh-out-loud funny. What were they thinking?? Thanks for the laughs.
oh my god that was so funny, i love this show, but it made it look so bad that is was good especially the first one with them all laughing as if at the show
This is gr8!! It beautifully illustrates what a pig's ear Freddy Fried (cheese) Burger and chips made of the 2nd season. Well done, people. Your understanding of the genre is really quite remarkable, too and made with great affection. What a pity Season 2 was denied the same degree of attention. I am a big fan of the series. Thanks for the entertainment.
GO! GO! GOGOGOGO!
