Look, if I told you... it wouldn't work. That's obvious, right? Good. Stop f****** worrying about it. Stop f****** worrying about ANYTHING. Now, get out there and earn, you f****** Maggots Caterpillars.

Trivia: in THE INVADERS DVD set, Thinnes talks about his own UFO sighting. That HAD to mess with his head.

Another striking anomaly in this/"your" timeline, and I must say, a pleasant one. Good to see you above ground, John. You funny son of a bitch.

(Alas, I have yet to trip the faster than light fantastic to any stream in which Lurch (Ted Cassidy) lived even one day past JAN 16, 1979. Interestingly, in this timeline, Ted narrated the television series THE INCREDIBLE HULK.

Fascinating.)

That’s another oldie, Quinn Martin production I’ve been re-enjoying recently.  I like how they went with the gig of the time of having the usual guest stars of the era passing through.  Imagine wandering the remote country side, narrowly avoiding sinister aliens, and just by happenstance running into the likes of Susan Oliver?  Now that’s the type of plausibility I prefer.

I think you might enjoy this, Cam.

I remember I got one of those Invaders UFO plastic model kits when I was a kid.

The Aurora kit?  Ha, yeah, I had one, too.  Nothing like what this guy does, though.

Love it. The last time I saw such impressive detail was the high budget SOL in the opening scene of MST3K : THE MOVIE. It was straight out of 2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY. Trace worked on that one as well as on the original SOL model. Surprised when I saw some footage of him at work on the movie version. Multi talented bastard. I had assumed it had been built SOLely by hired special effects people, given the increased budget.

Now, if we can just get a build of Susan Oliver's build thrown into the mix here, we will really be cooking with alien heat.

That yellow coat of hers is going to require expert dry brush technique else it is going to look like a squash vegetable slathered with Testors YELLOW.

I wish I were not speaking from painful experience.

Holy lizard suit, Batman!

Perhaps the best/most surprising person I've ever seen since starting this topic.

Hail Katsumi Tezuka!
God bless Katsumi Tezuka.

108 kicks insane ass.

Love it! In fact, I’ve posted several skits from the show here over the years. Here’s a particular fav of mine:
