It’s Just A Show

162. Famous People Doing Weird Things. [MST3K K13. SST: Death Flight.]


Listen Later

SST: Death Flight, chock full of celebrities, is flying as fast as it can to hear Chris and Charlotte talk about Lorne Greene, John de Lancie, Billy Crystal, Misty Rowe, and, you guessed it, Donald Pleasence.

Show Notes.

SST: Death Flight (David Lowell Rich, 1977): IMDB. MST3K Wiki.

Previous Donald Pleasence Day episodes: Warrior of the Lost World. The Pumaman. Alien from L.A.. Circus of Horrors. Pod People. Teenage Crime Wave. Prince of Space. Hangar 18.

Oops: Tom Welling.

Our episodes on the KTMA episodes City on Fire, Humanoid Woman, and Time of the Apes.

We talked about Lorne Greene in our episodes on Johnny at the Fair and, for some reason, San Francisco International?

John de Lancie’s novel.

The Bastard (Lee H. Katzin, 1978).

John Jakes: The Bastard.

Our episode on Quest of the Delta Knights.

Benjamin Franklin’s bath theory.

Oh, and our episode on Final Justice, which also has some Donald Pleasence discussion.

Um actually, Jodie from Soap is not the first regular gay character in a tv show. That would be Peter Panama from the short-lived show The Corner Bar.

Matt Baume’s video essay on Soap, and his delightful book about television and gay history, Hi Honey, I’m Homo!

Rabbit Test (Joan Rivers, 1978).

Roger Ebert’s review.

One of Robert Reed’s memos about terrible Brady Bunch scripts.

Yet more cross-references! Our episodes on It Conquered the World, Attack of the the Eye Creatures, Parts: The Clonus Horror, At the Earth’s Core, The Last Chase, and Hangar 18 again.

Bert Convy.

Klamath Falls has a slightly misleading name.

Bucket of Blood (Roger Corman, 1959).

The Cheers: Black Denim Trousers and Motorcycle Boots.

Major spoilers for Soylent Green (Richard Fleischer, 1973).

Misty Rowe’s demo reel.

The Who Wants to Be a Millionaire fan wiki has all the answers.
