Since I have had zero interest in G4 lately, I missed that this was actually airing today at 5PM. Anyone know if they've aired any other episodes, or is this a "Burnoff" thing they're doing?

I don't know if it's a four episode run of all the episodes they've got fully produced to not have to air them again or just perhaps an extended sneak peek of what's to come, but I thank you for the reminder. But really believing it's going to be a quite alright cartoon, nothing groundbreaking obviously, but better than a lot of other things that passes as entertainment these days (especially for G4).

Hey, it's not Cops, Cheaters, or a game that revolves around vomiting. Even if it sucks, I'll take it. I almost wish they'd just run cult movies all the time on it now. At least then it would justify it's continued existence to me. Well, that and Code Monkeys.

I taped all four episodes and have watched the first two thus far. After the first one I wasn't so sure it would be that great, but the second one really cracked me up. I'll watch the last two tonight and have a better idea of how it's going to be afterward. I was glad to see Mel Brooks, Daphne Zuniga, and Joan Rivers all returned to provide voices. The guy doing Barf's voice sounded alot like John Candy. The first two episodes were spoofs on Revenge of the Sith and Lord of the Rings respectively. The second two appear to be spoofs on the Grand Theft Auto games and Jurassic Park.
I can't find any info on the web about how many more episodes are supposed to air. I programmed the DVR to tape it whenever a new episode airs. I'll just have to keep an eye out for it.

It was okay. Nothing special.
But I do agree that the guy voicing Barf did a great job.

All I can say about the Spaceballs animated series is
it's certainly a T.V. Show.

Even though the show is a Mel Brooks creation, it just had this feel that anybody could've made it. It's just another lame parody show.
And I understand that Spaceballs is a parody in itself, but at least Mel Brooks seemed to try harder then.
