The 2025 Flash Gordon New Year’s Meme: Flash Learns Intergalactic Customs.

Ladies, Gentlemen, and Greblenorts from Feebex 9, The Editors and Staff of Mr. Blog’s Tepid Ride proudly (ha!) present Flash Gordon’s yearly message of holiday greetings, beamed to us from the depths of space using technology roughly equivalent to the radio in a ’57 Chevy. You may have noticed over the years that Flash is not a particularly bright fellow, and this year Flash finds himself confused by some new space customs.

Missed any of the Flash Gordon Space Dispatches? You can find them all here.

Happy Halloween, Sci-Fi TV Fans!

28 Oct

October 28, 2024

Here’s a good question for you fans of sci-fi TV. (FOSFTV for short. Hey, why not?)

How many recycled Star Trek costumes can you spot in this scene from Mork and Mindy? This one is actually a bit tricky.

Mork’s Orkan costume worn by Robin Williams is modified from Colonel Green’s costume in The Savage Curtain.

Conrad Janis is wearing parts of two costumes. The body is the environmental suit from The Naked Time. The helmet is from the space suit from The Tholian Web.

So the answer is three, but maybe not the three you expected.
