Good grief, it's a wonder they even survived for one day! They all act like they've got their heads up their butts. No one seems capable of asking a simple and direct question, or giving a simple and direct answer. But, I don't want to seem like a totally Negative Neda ... I actually rather like these early b&w episodes. They're a little more grounded, not quite as campy or ridiculous as later seasons, though those episodes are fun in their own way, too. Dr. Smith was rather murderous in these early eps, though judging from the events here, he's not completely without a conscience. And best of all, this episode has Debbie the Bloop, the space chimp, in it! Fortunately the series ended before she grew old enough to go bonkers and rip Penny's face off.
