Movie Summary  Movie: First Spaceship On Venus:  Could this be the first MST movie with a black African person of color?! As an astronaut, even?!?! Even a female woman astronaut of the lady sex?! Who's an astronaut and a doctor, even?! An international expedition is sent to explore Venus with their darling pre-R2D2 robot. They find the civilization on Venus has been destroyed by warfare. It's dangerous. It's dubbed. Who will get back to Earth? Who won't? Who cares? — Mary Jo Pehl Host Segments  Prologue:  Joel adjusts the sarcasm sequencer on Servo. He cranks it waaay up.  Invention:  Joel invents the junkdrawer helper. Dr. Forrester and Frank find Abe Vigoda in the bottom of their junk drawer.  Segment 2:  Servo and Crow show Joel their coolest robot in the world. It speaks in foam, and fills the room with foam in a decidedly Soupy Sales-like manner.  Segment 3:  Crow and Servo host Match Game '78, and an ape visits the SOL, which scares the bejeebers out of both of them.  Segment 4:  A commercial for Klack food products, such as Polynesian Cheese Devils and Festive Skin Mittens. Servo sounds nothing like Ed Herlihy.  Segment 5:  Crow liked the movie; Servo is deeply sarcastic to the point of explosion; and Joel has some fond childhood memories. Forrester vomits into the junk drawer.  Stinger:  The Alphabet Antical people wave us off. Reflections The really long Klack food products sketch, the entirely non sequitur visit by a gorilla, the lame foam gag, the sarcasm sequencer, TV's Fish in a junk drawer...we went on vacation right after this show. We hugged our loved ones, gathered 'round the holiday table, and I for one had a good, long cry. — Kevin Murphy
