What is an old show you think is great and really doesn't get mentioned enough? Why should someone watch it?

Other Space

It is a brilliant little space comedy that died the worst type of death. It was a Yahoo Screen original. As you might infer from that it only got one season before the whole platform imploded. I think it might still be available on Netflix or Hulu?

A young space cadet is made captain for an exploratory deep space mission. His second in command is his older sister and she is not happy about it. He also appoints his best freind to the bridge crew and a girl he likes as the coms officer. The Chief engineer is a spaced out hippy type played by Joel Hodgson of MST3K and his robot companion is voiced by Trace Beaulieu who voiced Crow on MST3K. First episode is a little it of a slow start but the show is hilarious. I rewatch it from time to time.

I think my favorite thing about streaming is it has allowed for some rather weird comedy shows. This definitely looks fun!
