Check local times in your area.

Aaaah! Don't *scare* us like that! At least let us warm up
with, like, those 1930s travelogues about exciting Indianapolis or
historic Guelph, Ontario.

It doesn't stretch 'Underground' far enough, though.

Actually, the weirdest thing about watching them --- other than
that Turner Classic Movies seems to have better prints of them so that
there's more dialogue identifiable --- is that the movies feel faster
without the MiSTing commentary than with. In fact, I barely know how
the Brains had time to make their jokes; there hardly seems enough time
for the basic screams of agony.

Also apparently Frank Douglas's silly little spacecraft was
supposed to be a two-man vehicle. That's what, ridiculously enough,
the horrible dialogue says. Honest. What happened to the other guy
I don't know.
