A character that resembles Harry Mudd from Star Trek appears.
This episode and the recent "Brian the Brain" are the worst episodes of Space 1999. Both hours attempted to inject comedy into the premise of the series and both failed totally. But it is not just these two shows that bombed in the comedy department.
Thanks to the new misguided producer from the US, many second season episodes had little moments of awkward forced comedy (often in the final minute) that just damaged my memory of Space 1999 as a whole.
But season two has some fine hours, mainly at the start and at the end, it just went through these bumpy moments in the middle. Things will pick up soon.
