  • Summary

  • Between Metropolis and Star Wars lies a 50 year wasteland of terrible movie robots. Every week we rate the robot from a movie, if it gets a score of 7 out of 10 then we say that it is not a shit robot. Today, we begin our Star Wars season by not looking at Star Wars. We are joined by author and animator Niel Bushnell to discuss Space 1999 and the old sci-fi of the mid-70s whose time was running out.

    WARNING 2! The S**t-bomb is used but nothing more
