1. Instead of over to the desk, theme music,
cold open, opening remarks.
Copy !req
2. I get it.
Copy !req
3. You got it.
Copy !req
4. So you're saying cold open first,
then the theme music.
Copy !req
5. Mm-hmm.
Copy !req
6. Then we hit them with opening remarks.
Copy !req
7. Right.
Copy !req
8. Then... Then I go to the desk.
Copy !req
9. Right.
Copy !req
10. That's different.
Copy !req
11. Yeah.
Copy !req
12. So you're saying cold open—
it's—it's a continuity thing.
Copy !req
13. You see, you can't have a cold
open after the theme.
Copy !req
14. Mm hmm. Got you.
Copy !req
15. Ok, places everybody.
Copy !req
16. Zorac? Ready to go with the theme music?
Copy !req
17. Eh, hang on a minute.
Copy !req
18. There we go.
Copy !req
19. Ok, people?
Copy !req
20. Less than two days before the big premiere.
Copy !req
21. Today we're rolling tape on this
stand-in guest, this guy, uh,
Copy !req
22. Fred... Schneider, uh,
before the real deal on Friday, ok?
Copy !req
23. Is this thing on?
Copy !req
24. Whoa, zorac! Save some for Friday night, huh?
Copy !req
25. You know, this sound effect isn't working for me.
Copy !req
26. It's too wacky.
Copy !req
27. You're right.
Copy !req
28. You know what? I'll pull some stuff tonight.
Copy !req
29. Ok, everybody, look alive,
cue music and title page.
Copy !req
30. We're rolling tape this time.
Copy !req
31. And fry
Copy !req
32. action!
Copy !req
33. Hi, mom!
Copy !req
34. Um... Where's Space Ghost?
Copy !req
35. Hiya, I'm Space Ghost.
Copy !req
36. Hiya, I'm Moltar— hold it!
Copy !req
37. You missed your mark.
Copy !req
38. Shoot. Sorry.
Copy !req
39. Still rolling.
Copy !req
40. Go again.
Copy !req
41. Hiya! I'm— cut!
Copy !req
42. Yeah?
Copy !req
43. Looks good. You looked good coming out.
Copy !req
44. But, Space Ghost, yeah?
Copy !req
45. Let's see if you can come
up with some better words.
Copy !req
46. You know, you're a superhero. Feel that.
Copy !req
47. Ok, ok.
Copy !req
48. "Hiya"--it just doesn't cut it.
Copy !req
49. Got you, chief.
Copy !req
50. Mm-hmm. I'm feeling it. We ready?
Copy !req
51. All right, go.
Copy !req
52. Skip the invisible.
Copy !req
53. Salutations, citizens of earth.
Copy !req
54. Space Ghost of the cosmos here,
and I am commanding you— cut! Cut!
Copy !req
55. I went off, didn't I?
Copy !req
56. It's a little strong.
Copy !req
57. Almost there, but not so... Overbearing, you know?
Copy !req
58. Take a deep breath and...
Copy !req
59. Action.
Copy !req
60. Greetings!
Copy !req
61. I'm Space Ghost.
Copy !req
62. Tonight on Space Ghost coast to coast,
we have Fred Schneider
Copy !req
63. of the b-52's.
Copy !req
64. Not yet, Moltar.
Copy !req
65. Don't put this on the tv— sorry.
Copy !req
66. Line!
Copy !req
67. Cut!
Copy !req
68. You don't have a line, zorak.
Copy !req
69. You're just playing off Space Ghost.
Copy !req
70. Um, I'm challenging him... To give me a line.
Copy !req
71. Ok, but, uh, for our first show,
let's try something a little less oblique.
Copy !req
72. Easy. You caught me off guard. Sorry.
Copy !req
73. Ahem. Now what's my motivation?
Copy !req
74. Ok, you're a space villain.
Copy !req
75. Space Ghost has enslaved you to
work on his show, just like in '68,
Copy !req
76. only more angry.
Copy !req
77. Um... Ok. Ready?
Copy !req
78. You betcha. Let him have it, and... Action.
Copy !req
79. Space Ghost!
Copy !req
80. Say hello to zorak, ladies and gentlemen,
my green-with-evil sidekick.
Copy !req
81. Fear me, o people of earth!
Copy !req
82. Memorize my grim vizaage— cut.
Copy !req
83. Visage, zorac.
Copy !req
84. Why don't you try "countenance" instead?
Copy !req
85. Countenance, huh?
Copy !req
86. All right.
Copy !req
87. Fear me, o people of earth!
Copy !req
88. Memorize my grim count—
Copy !req
89. Cut! Hang on, everybody!
Copy !req
90. Criminy!
Copy !req
91. Joe, get in here, will you?
Copy !req
92. What's the deal here?
Copy !req
93. Say, I didn't even fire.
Copy !req
94. Right.
Copy !req
95. Techies, in here?
Copy !req
96. This is just a glitch, people.
Copy !req
97. Hey, uh, Bob?
Copy !req
98. I got to go.
Copy !req
99. Uh, everyone?
Copy !req
100. Moltar has to go.
Copy !req
101. Uh, can someone come escort him, please?
Copy !req
102. Oh, and I'd like another coffee,
and some of those biscuits,
Copy !req
103. if there's any left.
Copy !req
104. Bring me some of those, uh,
orange crackers— Space Ghost is
Copy !req
105. the cinderella story in this year's tournament.
Copy !req
106. One well-placed blast, and he'll
take the championship— Space Ghost?
Copy !req
107. Space Ghost?
Copy !req
108. Space Ghost!
Copy !req
109. Huh? What? Hey!
Copy !req
110. Hey, all righty!
Copy !req
111. I'm sorry, man.
Copy !req
112. I didn't mean to yell like that.
Copy !req
113. I just—I want to try that remote segment, ok?
Copy !req
114. I'm going to have zorac improv a little
intro thing— eh... Yeah. Well, ok.
Copy !req
115. And, bill, could we get space
ghost in the banana suit, ok?
Copy !req
116. I'm ready when you are.
Copy !req
117. Space Ghost is going to inviso down
to his mark in Atlanta, gotcha. Uh,
Copy !req
118. where do I look?
Copy !req
119. Straight ahead.
Copy !req
120. And we're ready?
Copy !req
121. Ok, and... Action.
Copy !req
122. Ask the big banana
Copy !req
123. uh, was that ok?
Copy !req
124. Aw, give me a little more, zorac.
Copy !req
125. Come on, stretch a little.
Copy !req
126. We're still rolling, right?
Copy !req
127. Ok, here we go.
Copy !req
128. Ahem.
Copy !req
129. Hey kids! It's time for...
Copy !req
130. Time to ask the questions,
time for your wacky questions,
Copy !req
131. to the big banana in... Outer space.
Copy !req
132. I'm not real comfortable here, Bob.
Copy !req
133. The suit's on backwards.
Copy !req
134. This is great.
Copy !req
135. Uh, the suit's on backwards.
Copy !req
136. Is th what it is?
Copy !req

Copy !req
145. Ha ha ha!
Copy !req
146. Where's my face?
Copy !req
147. Well, I'm a banana, see?
Copy !req
148. Bananas don't have faces.
Copy !req
149. Whatever.
Copy !req
150. Ok, that was fun.
Copy !req
151. Can we try something else now, Bob?
Copy !req
152. Just one more, please.
Copy !req
153. I'm starting to sweat, Bob.
Copy !req
154. Ok, ok.
Copy !req
155. Come on out.
Copy !req

Copy !req

Copy !req
163. That's not good.
Copy !req
164. What in Andromeda's name is going on?
Copy !req

Copy !req
166. Did I miss something?
Copy !req
167. I'd just like to see it coming.
Copy !req
168. Is th too much to ask?
Copy !req
169. We're sorry, zorac, but it's rehearsal, right?
Copy !req
170. I mean, that's why we're here.
Copy !req
171. Fran, get some makeup on zorac again—
I'm not sure that banana
Copy !req
172. segment is working.
Copy !req
173. We'll deal with that later.
Copy !req
174. You up on all your questions?
Copy !req
175. Definitely. What are your
superpowers, oxygen? Got it.
Copy !req
176. We're going to take it from the intro of our guest.
Copy !req
177. Zorac, you're back, right?
Copy !req
178. Yes, I'm fine.
Copy !req
179. Say, who's up on Friday night?

Copy !req
206. Are you getting enough oxygen?
Copy !req
207. Riveting.
Copy !req
208. Um, no, because of hay fever I am suffering.
Copy !req
209. Sorry to hear that.
Copy !req
210. And... Superpowers.

Copy !req
218. Do not threaten the guest.
Copy !req
219. Um... Hang on, people!
Copy !req
220. Hey, man, you, uh, need anything right now?
Copy !req
221. Stay where you are,
because you don't want to be here.
Copy !req
222. I heard that.
Copy !req
223. Mr. Schneider, we apologize. S.
G.'S a little nervous today.
Copy !req
224. No, not at— Fred, look at me.
Copy !req
225. Huh?
Copy !req
226. Do you have any advice for me,
as I take on the late-night talk show wars?
Copy !req
227. Let it happen.
Copy !req
228. Let it all hang out.
Copy !req
229. Just sort of relax and go with it, you mean.
Copy !req
230. Yes.
Copy !req
231. Do you think I should be a serious
talk show host, or just plain wacky?
Copy !req
232. Just do anything.
Copy !req
233. Who cares?
Copy !req
234. Just shake it.
Copy !req
235. Shake it loose.
Copy !req
236. Gotcha. I'm shaking it.
Copy !req
237. What's this love shack all the
kids are talking about?
Copy !req
238. Cut!
Copy !req
239. Um, we're out of time, Fred.
Copy !req
240. Thanks for coming in for the run-through.
Copy !req
241. Would you consider doing an actual guest spot?
Copy !req
242. I will if you pay me enough money.
Copy !req
243. Of course.
Copy !req
244. Well, um, thank you.
Copy !req
245. Good job, sg.
Copy !req
246. That feel good for you?
Copy !req
247. I was horrible.
Copy !req
248. I spent so much time worrying
about which question to ask next,
Copy !req
249. I wasn't even hearing his responses.
Copy !req
250. Well, look, you'll grow with it.
Copy !req
251. Listen, I got to— I got to take this call.
Copy !req
252. Everybody take five!
Copy !req
253. You know, this is something—
guys like us with our own talk show.
Copy !req
254. It's a testament to our continued popularity.
Copy !req
255. Yeah, well, I hear it's a cost-saving measure.
Copy !req
256. How do you mean?
Copy !req
257. It's the nineties, Space Ghost.
Copy !req
258. Network brass is openly referring
to us as the "b" characters
Copy !req
259. in their cartoon library,
something about building equity.
Copy !req
260. I can't believe that!
Copy !req
261. They told me— aw, don't get your nylons in a wad.
Copy !req
262. It's just a business.
Copy !req
263. I'm under no delusions about this particular gig.
Copy !req
264. Yeah, but come on.
Copy !req
265. "B" characters?
Copy !req
266. Zorak's right.
Copy !req
267. The only thing to do right now is put
out the best darn talk show we can.
Copy !req
268. Arsenio, Dave, leno...
Copy !req
269. You know, maybe it's time you fellas took a step back
Copy !req
270. from the klieg lights of adulation
and took a good look around.
Copy !req
271. There's a distant thunder drawing near,
rolling in across
Copy !req
272. the vast wasteland of popular entertainment.
Copy !req
273. Maybe you can't see it coming,
because your view is blocked
Copy !req
274. by cheap facades of skylines and cityscapes.
Copy !req
275. But you'd better make ready, my friends,
because this thunder is
Copy !req
276. preparing to rain down fear and terror
on your gilded houses of complacency.
Copy !req
277. Mark my words, big shot late-night gabfest mavens!
Copy !req
278. You're about to tangle with
a one-dimensional caricature
Copy !req
279. A bug and a—
Copy !req
280. what are you, anyway, Moltar?
Copy !req
281. I'm a poorly drawn lava kind of a molten man.
Copy !req
282. And a poorly drawn lava kind of a molten man!
Copy !req
283. There's a new player in this
late-night talk show war!
Copy !req
284. And his name is— Space Ghost?
Copy !req
285. Yeah, Bob?
Copy !req
286. We need to book, man.
Copy !req
287. The snorks are in here for a
promo or something at 4:00, ok?
Copy !req
288. Oh, right, right.
Copy !req
289. Hey, uh, who played the part
of the director, anyways?
Copy !req
290. I don't know.
Copy !req
