BEGIN TRANSMISSION | |
(Opening theme & titles) | |
Tansut: | Greetings, this is Tansut, welcoming you to the first ever Space Ghost Coast to Coast 37th show anniversary celebration spectacular-mathon. Tonight, funny man Bobcat Goldthwait, and funny woman Judy Tenuta. And now, your friend and mine, that ghost host with the most, Spaaace Ghooost! |
Space Ghost: | (invisos in, coughing) Greetings, TV-watching citizens! I am Space Ghost, and I'm tickled pink to be here! |
Zorak: | Tickled stupid, you mean. |
Space Ghost: | (stares at Zorak, sniffs) Before we begin, let me introduce you to the director of tonight's festivities, that fabulous hot rock himself, Moltar! |
Audience: | (applause) |
Moltar: | Hey, don't get up, really. |
Space Ghost: | And, over here, we have my band leader, and indentured mantis-servant, Zorak, and the Original Way Outs! (Way Outs play a synthesized excerpt from "William Tell Overature") And we'd like to welcome you to... (takes deep breath) The first ever Space Ghost anniversary spectacular-mathon, uh, show. |
Zorak: | Whoop de doodle do! |
Space Ghost: | You know, kids, tonight is a special notch in the belt that is the Space Ghost saga. |
Zorak: | Ehhh, Space Ghost, what anniversary is this, anyway? |
Space Ghost: | Weren't you listening, Zorak? It's my 37th show anniversary! (smile sparkles) |
Zorak: | I never heard of anybody celebrating their 37th anniversary before! It's dopey. |
Space Ghost: | It's not dopey! It's our 37th show! That's an anniversary, right? Darn tootin' it is! So, hap-hap-happy anniversary it is, and shut up Zorak, because you're not gonna rain on my charade. |
Tansut: | Well, I don't know what I'm doing here, either. |
Zorak: | (looks around) |
Space Ghost: | (looks around) |
Tansut: | (in recording booth, behind a window) They called me twenty minutes ago, shoved these notes in my hand, what do they expect? (microphone feedback increases in volume) Buncha morons! |
Moltar: | Uh, Tansut? |
Tansut: | Let 'em fire me, I don't care. |
Moltar: | Tansut? |
Tansut: | What? |
Moltar: | Uh, your mike's on, man. |
Tansut: | Ohhhhh, fluff! Nobody showed me how to do this! (feedback increases again) (finally turns microphone off) |
Space Ghost: | Oh-kay! Let's get on with it, shall we? (invisos to desk, with new music) (Ding dong!) Say, I wonder who that could be? |
Moltar: | It's your first anniversary guest, Space Ghost, funny lady Judy Tenuta (she appears on control room monitor) |
Judy Tenuta: | I'm ready, honey! |
Space Ghost: | Judy! Welcome back to the show! |
Judy Tenuta: | Oh-h-h-h-h-h! Space Ghost! I'm so excited! |
Space Ghost: | Me too! |
Zorak: | Oooh! Me too! |
Space Ghost: | So, Judy gal, what have you been doing since I last saw you? |
Judy Tenuta: | Oh! Space Ghost, as you know, I rule the western hemisphere! |
Space Ghost: | That's nice, must keep you busy. |
Judy Tenuta: | (plays accordion and sings) I rule, I rule, I rule. |
Space Ghost: | Uh, Judy... |
Judy Tenuta: | Yeah!? |
Space Ghost: | Stuff a sock in it, Tenuta. |
Judy Tenuta: | (dances with accordion, to weird background sound) |
Space Ghost: | Judy, I've asked you to come back to celebrate my anniversary with me! Now, celebrate! |
Judy Tenuta: | Ohhh... |
Space Ghost: | Don't sing, Judy. |
Judy Tenuta: | (plays accordion and sings) Happy anniversary, happy anniversary, happy anniversary, Spaaaace Ghost! Oh-h-h-h-h-h! (spins around) |
Space Ghost: | (grimaces) |
Judy Tenuta: | Look at this! (swings her accordion up with her chest, then sits down) |
Zorak: | Must I? |
Judy Tenuta: | I can make myself invisible. You cannot see me now! (puts her hands in front of her face) |
Space Ghost: | Uh, yes I can. |
Judy Tenuta: | No-o-o-o-o! You cannot... |
Space Ghost: | Yes I can! (aims his power bands at monitor) |
Judy Tenuta: | No! His rays cannot harm me, no-o-o! |
Space Ghost: | (lowers his power bands, sighs) |
Judy Tenuta: | (shaking her head back and forth, singing) Hair dance, hair dance, don't be a square, dance! Hair dance! |
Space Ghost: | (stares back silently) |
Judy Tenuta: | (full face on monitor, puckering for Space Ghost) (Smoooooch!) |
Space Ghost: | Hmmm. Okay, I think it's time for Judy Jetson here to blast off. |
Moltar: | Gotcha. (throws lever to send her away) |
Judy Tenuta: | (still on studio monitor) Oh, you pig! |
Space Ghost: | Aaah! Moltar! |
Moltar: | I know, I know. (throws more levers, control room monitor changes several times, finally shows Tansut's booth) |
Tansut: | Uh, excuse me. Are we going to commercial now? |
Space Ghost: | No! |
Tansut: | Oh, sorry, don't mind me. (Moltar throws lever, control room monitor shows static) |
Space Ghost: | (Ding dong!) Aha! Our next guest! (sniff sniff sniff sniff) Hey! I smell evil! |
Moltar: | Space Ghost... |
Chad Ghostal: | (evil laugh) |
Moltar: | ... It's your evil twin brother. |
Space Ghost: | Aaaaah! Can't talk, Chad, I have a hernia! |
Chad Ghostal: | Hey hey, relax, baby, like, I'm not here to spread terror. |
Zorak: | Rats! |
Chad Ghostal: | I just wanted to swing by and check out the old Ghost Pad. You know, I had a real blast the last time I saw you, Taddles. A real blast. (evil laugh) |
Space Ghost: | Yeah, I bet you did. You and that creepy Elvira woman, pawwing each other. Yuck! |
Chad Ghostal: | Oh, forget that chick, Taddy Bear, I already did. I'm looking for some new action, you dig? Some new kicks, know what I mean, butterbean? |
Space Ghost: | Not a whiff, Chad. |
Chad Ghostal: | Then let me clue ya, Tadville. I want to host the show again. (evil laugh) |
Space Ghost: | Oh no, no no no no no! |
Chad Ghostal: | Okay Tad, be that way. Now I'm glad I left that surprise for you in your futon this morning. (evil laugh) B'da b'da! (evil laugh) |
Space Ghost: | Oh, that was you, huh? |
Chad Ghostal: | Well, I'll be in touch. Later, cats 'n kittens! (purrs) (barks) |
Moltar & Zorak: | (in unison) Bye, Chad! |
Zorak: | I like your brother. |
Space Ghost: | You do not! |
Judy Tenuta: | (reappears on monitor) Look at my cheekbones! |
Space Ghost: | Aaaaah! Moltar, break! |
Tansut: | (groans) Ten pounds of sausage in a five pound sack! |
Moltar: | Tansut! |
Tansut: | Oh, uh, coming up next, more stuff! |
INTERRUPT TRANSMISSION | |
RESUME TRANSMISSION | |
Tansut: | (sings) Welcome back! (normal voice) Oooh! Hey! I nailed that one! |
Space Ghost: | (Ding dong!) What now, Birdman? |
Moltar: | Relax, man, it's Bobcat. He's cool. (Bobcat is on control room monitor, waves at Moltar) |
Space Ghost: | Ladies and gentlemen, it's special anniversary guest Bobcat Goldthwait. |
Bobcat Goldthwait: | I tell ya, it's really been great here, to be back here, Space Ghost. |
Space Ghost: | It's great to have you. So, it's my 37th show anniversary, Bobcat. |
Bobcat Goldthwait: | You should slap yourself on the back. |
Zorak: | He should slap himself in the face. |
Space Ghost: | (slaps himself in the face) |
Bobcat Goldthwait: | (laugh, then shrieking laugh, then starts to cry) |
Space Ghost: | So, Bob-a-rella, did ya bring me anything special for my anniversary? |
Bobcat Goldthwait: | Oh, I brought you many things. (pause) |
Space Ghost: | (smiles at camera) |
Bobcat Goldthwait: | I'm lyin', man, what can I get ya, you don't even wear slacks or trousers or pants, you know... |
Space Ghost: | Oh, that's okay, just as long as you don't sing me a stupid song or anything. |
Bobcat Goldthwait: | (starts making gibbering noises, shaking his head back and forth) |
Moltar: | Look out, I think he's gonna sing! |
Space Ghost: | He's not gonna sing, Moltar. You're.. not gonna sing, are you, Bobcat? |
Bobcat Goldthwait: | Yes I am. |
Space Ghost: | Ohhh brother. |
Zorak: | Sing! Sing, you fool! Sing like a maniac! (shakes his arm) |
Bobcat Goldthwait: | Okay. (takes a deep breath, then shouts) SPACE GHOST COAST TO COAST, SPACE GHOST COAST TO COAST, SPACE GHOST COAST TO COAST, AGH AGH AGH AGH AGH! |
Space Ghost: | (sighs) |
Bobcat Goldthwait: | Could you buy the sincerity of that? Yeah, I, it really worked for me. |
Zorak: | Hmmmm, it had a good beat, and I could kill you to it. I give it a 75. (holding a sign with "75") |
Bobcat Goldthwait: | I'm tellin' ya, I'm gonna get up, and I'm gonna dope-slap that bug. |
Moltar: | Fine! Fine! |
Space Ghost: | Be my guest, Bobcat! Dope-slap away! |
Bobcat Goldthwait: | Zorak, I'm gonna dope-slap ya! |
Zorak: | (mocking) O-o-o-o-h, I'm so frightened! |
Bobcat Goldthwait: | (makes face at Zorak) (to Space Ghost) How did you get a show with a cricket? |
Zorak: | I'm a loc-, er, mantis! |
Bobcat Goldthwait: | Apparently, in, somewhere in show business, you shoulda went paper instead of scissors. |
Zorak: | Yeah, look who's talking, the talk show arsonist! |
Bobcat Goldthwait: | I'm serious, I will, I will clean that bug's clock so fast! |
Space Ghost: | Zorak! |
Bobcat Goldthwait: | You just tell him that, I, I, I personally put two of the Bugaloos in the hospital. |
Space Ghost: | I think he heard you. |
Bobcat Goldthwait: | (exaggerated wink) |
Space Ghost: | Um, look, Bobby-cat, I apologize about the bug. |
Bobcat Goldthwait: | Alright. Yah-yah-yah-yah-yah-yah-yah! |
Space Ghost: | I try to make him behave, but... |
Bobcat Goldthwait: | (looks to his right) Am I done, is that enough community service? (looks front and nods) |
Space Ghost: | (sighs) Any last words of anniversary wisdom for the little people at home? |
Bobcat Goldthwait: | Yeah. (pounds fist into his palm) You gotta make your own fun, Space Ghost. |
Space Ghost: | Great. |
Bobcat Goldthwait: | You gotta make your own fun. |
Space Ghost: | I tried to make my own fun, look what it got me! Happy anniversary to me! |
Bobcat Goldthwait: | (sticks his tongue out at Space Ghost) |
Space Ghost: | Whoop de doo. Moltar, are we done? |
Moltar: | Uh, we still got that cheap clip thing. |
Space Ghost: | That's right! This should be great, folks. It's a sparkling career retrospective to me! Space Ghost! Roll 'em! |
Moltar: | (throws lever, countdown begins) |
(Title screen shows: "OUR MAN SPACE GHOST / THE DIRECTOR'S CUT", followed by numerous "Space Ghost" cartoon clips of him getting blasted, pounded, frozen, slammed, by numerous enemies) | |
Moltar: | (laughs) |
Zorak: | (laughs) |
Space Ghost: | That was no sparkling tribute! That was terrible! That was... yuck! What in the name of Vic Tayback was that? |
Moltar: | A montage. |
Space Ghost: | (French voice) Montage! French, hah? Well, that explains that, no, Moltar? (normal voice) Those French, they ruin everything! I mean, you give them an entire Disneyland, and they can't even make a dime off it. Even purple-butted baboons couldn't screw up a Disneyland! Hmmm! I tell ya, one day I oughta do somethin' about them French. |
Zorak: | (French voice) I dare you! I double dare you! |
Space Ghost: | Okay, I will! See if I don't! (flies off) |
Bobcat Goldthwait: | (still making faces on the monitor) |

Space Ghost: | (in cockpit) Ruin my anniversary, will ya? |

Voice: | (with French accent) Look out! It is zee Space Ghost! (Phantom Cruiser ray blasts city) |
Space Ghost: | Take that, you cheese eaters! |
(Blasts city again, crisps Eiffel tower; blast city around Arc de Triomphe, city is in flames, people are screaming) | |
Zorak: | (French voice) Well, zat ees zat! Au reservoir, mon-sewers! |
