This was great, I cant wait to see the next installment of Captain Z-Ro!!!! In Space….

Awesome. This is what TSE was meant to be in the first place, right? It's hilarious ^^.

quarky

Wait, I actually finished the video and still no comments? Wow.

robek

sooooooo awsome

bastafari

Sorta like Journey Man 2: Buried In Time. Hey, is it just me or does Captain Z-RO look like a tougher, but still gay Vincent Price?

areoborg

Man, first he stole all of his ideas from Archamedes and then he stole more ideas from the future. Old Leo didn't have an original thought in his head, did he?

lydius

Man that is retro

LeeEnfeild

My GOD that was boring! …Not you, Spoony, you were great. I mean the movie itself. What was it about? Teaching about DaVinci, Air Traffic Control, and how everything is better with an efficient power source? And to make it more entertaining to kids, they set it in the Fantastic Future Year, 1997? Guh. Dig up some of the Flash Gordon or Zorro serials. Those were -interesting-.

I love how their fantastic future technology is a floating platform and one shot of a jet fighter, while the ability to travel through time on a whim doesn't make the list.

timstoddard

State your favourite Doctor!

Captain Freetime

Number 10! Though Eleven is starting to grow on me

MrZer0

ah, they sure did love their boy sidekicks back in the day
they're stupid stupid sidekicks

timstoddard

Wow, Matt Smith is growing on you after only one full episode? I'm still with Tennant but Smith seems likable to stand, even if he does act a bit weird.

Oggystein

Heh, that was almost painfully boring. Your comments were great though Spoony especially the last five minutes had me laughing like an idiot. But you missed the golden opportunity to make the Sherman and Mr. Peabody reference. Anyway, great video and great work.

Oggystein

Heh, that was almost painfully boring. Your comments were great though Spoony especially the last five minutes you had me laughing like an idiot. But you did missed the golden opportunity to make the Mr. Peabody and Sherman reference.

I think my favorite was Capt. Z-Ro telling Jet that the glider didn't work rather than smack him for being the idiot of wanting to be the first person to fly, totally screwing the Wright Bros out of their hard work, especially as Jet didn't invent the damn thing. You're right Spoony, the good ol Captain should have let Jet fall.

DerKork

Nope, you're right on track, bastafari.

(Actually, that seemingly was a pretty common appearance in the fifties for sci-fi characters. Mostly the villains, if I remember correctly.)

nuclearaptor

Dammit,Spoony,stop cockteasing us with Hudson Hawk. I'd love to see you give that movie the Spoony Treatment.

Lovely to se another TSE Riff Theater up! Hope to see lots more of this in the future!

You are fantastic as always, Spoony

Kidnapping Leonardo da Vinci, evil looking beard, and volcano lair… Captain Z-Ro is clearly the Master, not the Doctor.

antonekens

Great video! A few moments when watching when I forgot it wasn't MST3k, which is why I loved it so much. As good as the best MST3k episodes, from the final seasons on the Sci-Fi channel. Loved the Space Prince reference too! I wish the RiffTrax people would try contacting you..

Foweraker

Yes those platforms existed in the 50s. And they never got them to be of any use. Slow, expensive and unstable.

Also, is it just me or does Captain Z-Ro seem to be able to predict Jeff's actions really well, almost as if this sort of thing happened all the time?

http://twitter.com/KatKaleen KatKaleen

Nr. 10.
Although I liked Nr. 9 quite a bit, and Nr. 4 is the one I´ve seen the most episodes of.
But if they keep going through the actors like that, they´ll soon have to make up a reason why the Doctor can reincarnate more often than other timelords.

http://www.facebook.com/Terrorblades Erik Olsson

Oh please make more!
(At first my mind went: “Z-ro you fellas better know my name man. Z-Ro!” Z-Ro Of SUC!)

Please make more spoony! <3
Whoop Whoop to the rest of you.

whiskytangofoxtrot

So where are the other six Mona Lisas? The ones with “this is a fake” written in felt-tip pen on the canvas?

timstoddard

Yeah, last time I remember Timelords have only 13 lives, with the exception of the Master who somehow finds random ways to revive himself.

So after regeneration number 12 they'll have to think of something.

Salenstormwing

This is why Child Labor Laws were created. Children were performing horrible jobs like sewing and making shoes and disrupting the time/space continuum. Like the one time Little Billy changed time killed a butterfly during the Mesozoic Era, causing Elvis & Hitler to invent the Luther Burger in their New York Apartment while they were having an argument over which was better, Krispy Kreme donuts or Bacon Hamburgers.

Needless to say, before the time stream was repaired, this was one of the greatest creations of all time. Mmmm. Bacon Hamburger on deep-fried Krispy Kreme donuts.

dennett316

Oh God!!! Jet is one of those dumbass kids who wishes zinc didn't exist….really want to see the next episode
“Marvel at the wonders of time travel as Jet finds out that cleaning the barrel of a gun with your tongue is not a wise idea!!! Witness as Captain Z-RO takes him back in time to visit with one Kurt Cobain to learn that guns are not the answer….and Courtney Love is a talentless whore!!!”

Salenstormwing

Tom Baker as Dr. 4.

Part of the reason is he was on for so long, he's the one I always remember seeing on the show. Also, he had the most awesome scarf of all time. Plus, he had some of the best escapes from the forces of evil ever. Plus, he used a yo-yo.

dragonqueen

wow Jet so stupid. I wonder if this where PBS the idea for Where in time is Carmen San Diego?

Foweraker

Based on how old Leonardo is here my guess is that they where made many years ago, meaning that the one we see in the episode is one of the fakes and the real one was already destroyed. The dates from these episodes (1505 for Doctor Who and 1515 for Captain Z-Ro) bare that out, although Lenardo has NOT aged well over the 10 year gap.

What?

coyoterys

That was awesome. The acting makes me think I could have been a cheesy TV star in the 50's!

http://bluehighwind.blogspot.com/ BlueHighwind

So essentially this is a live action version of that Cartoon Network show “Time Squad”: an annoying little kid teams up with a grizzled authority figure to travel through and have adventures. Only one slight problem… they forgot the effeminate obsessive compulsive robot.

Either that, or this is the American version of “Prince of Space”.

ciprianocms

Wow, I had no idea Voltaire (the muscian) acted in the 50s. Great job Spoony. I hope you continue these.

ciprianocms

Number 9. He was my first Doctor (Though I do remember seeing episodes of Baker on PBS on repeat at two in the morning)

I've watched a few of the first doctor who, you can get addicted to watching him bring a team of idiots from the 1950s and then watch them get killed, he just kinda leads them into danger.

ROFL!! I can't wait for the next one… and the second part of the FFX review you promised. I'm sending now my mind control rays

claim44

Great video, spoony one ! It feels just like a good old MST3K episode, but with today's humor thrown in by our official funniest man alive . Also, good find for the movie, i hope we will see more of captain Z RO, it's so easy to make fun of time traveling ^^
And who knows, maybe we'll finally see Tetro !

CPBacon

“As you can see Mr. DaVinci, our modern “rocket ship” technology is also shaped like a wiener, something I'm sure you'd especially get a kick out of.”

frood

Wow just read the wiki of this. Apparently Jet gets sent back in time to make sure the Magna Carta gets signed. Really?

Is this some reverse psychology tactic by Captain Z-ro to make Jet piss off historical figures to such a degree they would agree to anything just as long as they can finish up early and proced to slap seven shades of crap out of Jet. It would work for me.

awesome good show. not only a hommage to MST3K, your riff theather is standing on its own two feets.

SCIENCE

TheRandomOne

Woohoo! Assassins Creed 2 was one of my all time favorite games and its sweet to finnaly see Spoony recognize its glory! The flying part was pretty awesome, although to bad it was really only for that one mission. >:D

Cthulhu07

I wouldn't even trust Jet to buy me a carton of milk, let alone having him travel back through time to oversee such an important occasion as the signing of Magna Carta. This Captain Z-ro…. not the brightest fellow in the universe…

Kevin_Holsinger

Good afternoon Spoony and fellow Spooners.

So does anybody know of an instance where a Universal Translator DIDN'T make your lips move in the language you were being translated into? If someone spoke to me in Japanese, and I had one of these devices, the words I'd hear would be in English. But the guy would STILL BE SPEAKING JAPANESE, and his lips should move accordingly.

But between this video, Star Trek, Farscape, and The Last Starfighter, Universal Translators also seem to have functions that make your lips move differently. No idea how, though. Must be SCIENCE!

Cthulhu07

Where's Dr. Insano when you need him. He would know the answer to this for sure.

alfredmordeir

It doesn't really matter. We all know that da Vinci stole all of his ideas from the Atlantians when he was in the Delta Knights

http://www.facebook.com/people/Andrew-Millman/774036933 Andrew Millman

they really dont make shows like this anymore do they…….maybe for the best. Captain Z-Ro had some freaky facial hair, either they were glued on or draw on with a thick pen.

Very enjoyable on a show that would have been dull and lifeless without this riff

Sokka47

I did a one of these MST3K sorta things for a school project recently. The theater chroma-key was alright (though I could only do a one minute loop for instead of the live one they used to do) but I'm just not that funny. So it was a technical success but if I had The Spoony One writing it…..

http://twitter.com/iaro Isobel Allegra

Man, this serial's like a bad fanfiction! Though the Spoony One usually knocks Doctor Who, I was glad to see the numerous refs! More please, sir!

JALAPENOWAYNE

Golly, Spoony that was swell as well as a million other 50's/early 60's outdated words. I love the fact that Leonardo just accepts this all as a dream and that he's the most imaginative person to ever exist.

http://twitter.com/WackoMedia Wacko

This is a big deal Noah, you've riffed a whole movie and I know you've been meaning to do this for 10 years. I loved it!

RoryBinks

Really good Noah, your riffs are always good so it's nice to see you apply it to what it was originally supposed to be. Almost glad its just you and not burton though, he's only had a Robot Voice and Kevin Spacey so i'm thankful he didn't open his mouth…

Rory.

BluJay

As a doctor who fan I do enjoy the references

http://cassave.deviantart.com/ Cassavius

10:49 Historians agree that Da Vinci was most likely gay….so the hydraulics pump did get him guys…so why is he whining then?

capthavic

Or rather the least imaginitive person considering this is a 50/60's sci-fi picture

also gotta love that epic “hanging from a high ledge” I mean there was no way they could have been just laying down in front of a crappy picture and had someone pull the wings off to the side instead of falling straight down XD

rustedramblings

This is the first I've ever seen of this ridiculous show. I thoroughly enjoy how Jet's diction and tonality are that of Leave it to Beaver, even though he exists centuries in the future. Do the sci-fi characters of today's movies speak with such a dated voice, as well? I suppose our grandchildren will let us know.

Noah, you really ought to construct a small silhouette of yourself in your computer chair for the bottom of the screen. I know that would be a blatant parody, but it would also be a pretty amusing addition to these already well done riffs.

Anonymous

You forget, though. This takes place at some point in the 20th century, as stated in the dialogue. So he actually exists at least a decade in the past. Which makes him even more out of place awesome. “Golly! I wish I could fly! Golly! I wish I wasn’t hanging off the ledge! Golly! I hope Captain Z-Ro doesn’t take me out back to the woodshed and put a bullet between my eyes for being such a total waste of human intelligence. Golly!”

Tai_MT

Huh… A low-budget version of Doctor Who… Without the interesting characters or set design.

Well, still. Glad you riffed on this. Maybe you should riff on some of the early Doctor Who stuff as well? The black and whites mayhaps? Some of it is pretty silly.

http://www.facebook.com/people/Deacon-Hagan/100002190854170 Deacon Hagan

this came out 7 yrs before Doctor Who.
- Tai_MT
  
  Did it? With the same film quality/set design, it’s hard to tell. Then again, I watch movies purely for entertainment and not to wiki them.
  However, I must ask one question… Does it really matter? In the scheme of things, does it matter which of them came first? I’ve seen Doctor Who, I haven’t seen Captain Z-Ro. I relate what happened in the video to Doctor Who since I’ve seen a few of the Black and White episodes from when it first came out. I relate them because they are similar. I relate them because obviously one is more famous than the other. I relate them because I’m obviously not of age to have been alive when Captain Z-Ro first showed up.
  Must I do research on EVERY statement I make? Especially when I made no comment as to which actually came first? My comment was simply that this was a low budget version of Doctor Who without interesting characters/set design. It doesn’t mean it ripped off Doctor Who you silly person. It means that it is what I said it is. Basically the same thing. Similar in content/plot. Does it really matter which came first? Is that really relevant to my statement in the slightest?
  Look, I’m glad you have the powers of wikipedia and search engines in your hands… But shouldn’t you honestly be doing something else with your time instead of attempting to troll a comment over 2 years old? Just sayin’…
  - http://www.facebook.com/people/Deacon-Hagan/100002190854170 Deacon Hagan
    
    See you think time is lingerer, but really i’s a big ball of timey whimy….stuf.
    I wasn’t trolling just making converstion……jerk.
    - Tai_MT
      
      Doesn’t sound like it. Sounds like you were trying to tell me that my initial post what somewhat invalid because Captain Z-Ro was out several years before Doctor Who. Didn’t really look or sound like conversation.

Renaissance_nerd

i love these old movies of “look how awesome the human race is”

spoony just makes it that much better.

http://twitter.com/DANfan69 Kaohe Alama-Francis

Wow, this is probably the first riff from Spoony that actually did feel like an MST3K clone (Which was the original intent of the Experiment to begin with) and it was great! Captain Z-Ro must be his namesake cause apparently he's too stupid to notice that his kid sidekick Jet has ADD and literally wants to kill himself in the name of being famous.

LOL for the Yor: Hunter from the Future joke.

novaargh

Hey Noah,

i know you're a fan of MST3TK
but dude, this s not your strong suit,
do the 'let's play's like SWAT, of final fantasy, those are freakin' entertaining as all hell,
you are you there, and comes much more naturally
even the wrestling rants where more fun to watch becouse you where ranting about shit you dislike

this is out your comportzone, it seems
and the comments you to in those silly voices they come over forced and unatural, and even agravating
your voice doesnt come over posetively, your no joel, crow or tom servo.

in this case it's no movie sign sorry to say, because your other stuf really is entertaining..
but that's becouase it's your stuff i suppose, this is just a second hand MST3TK

Anonymous

You are so wrong, it hurts to even think how much.

I laughed all the way through this, and I don’t laugh at much. You’re clearly just a negative jackass with no sense of humor, and applying your own jaded bitterness to Spoony’s work here.

This was masterfully done, and you’re just being negative for the sake of being negative. Just because you’re too jaded and bitter to find it funny, in no way, means that it actually wasn’t. If you didn’t get it, that’s your problem. Don’t apply your worthless self-centered standards to his talent, and pretend to act like your elitist entitlement issues makes for a good point. it doesn’t.

Captain Z-ro seems like a name for some kind of comedy, you know, a play on words between hero and zero, this guys IS a Z-ro…

12 miles per second X 60 = 760 Miles per minute X 60 = 43,200 MPH.
Mean distance to mars = 141,672,632 miles

141,672,632miles/43,200mph = 3279.459074074074 hours/24 = 136.6441280864198 Days to travel from Earth to Mars at a speed of 12 miles per second, when the distance between the two planets is at its mean distance. That is not 11 years dammit!

spoonchao999

What's that Jet? You want to see Leonardo Da Vinci? Okay, let me tell the crew to get back to their stations as we all go out of our way to please you. I'll gladly waste energy and manpower for you! Not to mention risk our lives using a dangerous technology that doen't make sense when I explain it (how do you grab someone's electromagnetic impulse from across time and bring it into your time?), but if you want to see a stupid batsuit, than gosh darnit, you get to see a stupid batsuit. In the meantime i'll show Leo inventions of our time while he amazingly keeps his cool dispite traveling in time! Aaaaaah… the 50's. We invent a couple of things, so now we can do anything in 50 years.

I love how Leonardo is totally cool with being called “Mr. Da Vinci,” even though “da Vinci” only means “from Vinci” – as in, from the town of Vinci. Every single person who lived in that place is “da Vinci.”

Also, the Mona Lisa looked considerably bigger in this movie than it does in real life.

Spoony, your commentary is hilarious, as usual. I got a particular kick out of “…yeah, and space. Keep up, old man.”

Bondpirate

The only way Jet could earn a 'Darwin Award' faster, is if he beamed into a choose your own adventure book.

Also, as an aside to the most likely late Mr. Steffens (and every other writer of shows aimed at children should really listen up as this can pertain to you too), as Spoony explained recently, exposition is a very critical part of any narrative. You have chosen 'Jet' (I am using quotes since this is probably a nickname and I do not believe any self respecting mother would name their child this.) as your conduit for this, as well as the character of the (most likely if it had one) male audience has to identify too. I applaud this move instead of other droll avenues you could have taken with the scripting or casting. However, I must suggest that the character be retooled to either be naive or ignorant to promote the shows cohesion. Not to have him be so stupid that he would become smarter by eating lead paint. I have read plenty of books predating science-fiction, giving examples of children capable of wit, daring and cognition. You have no excuse as both the creator and, quote unquote, star of this program. I will not allow any blame be shifted to the producer Kathleen K. Rawlings (also known as 2KR in her jazzercizing circle), as she is the grandmother of the talented J.K. Rowling and therefore exempt of any contempt. And don't be sassing me about how their names are only phonetically the same, she must be her grandmother so my lackluster comment has enough oomph to gain me likes. Regardless, the reason is somewhere in my imagination. I'll look later. I only pointed this out so that you could learn from your mistakes and if you continue writing, to learn from this.

But with that said I would like to thank you for creating it as it were. So that one day in the real future our “Spoony Bastard” could Riff you a new one. Thank You.

Jono666

HEY SPOONY! I'm an AVGN fan who stumbled on your site some time ago now. Since that time I've watched all your videos. I feel so close to you now that It feels like we're friends, in a weird disturbing way I guess. I just wanted to tell you that unlike your recent wrestling stuff which I find really boring (sorry), this is definitely WIN! your witty sarcastic comments are awesome and they make me laugh REEAAAL goood. 1950's videos like this are pure gold to riff on too. Keep it up buddy!

btw, looking forward to seeing some of those board games you were talking about a few videos back, and maybe if I'm lucky, you'll do another “let's play” sometime soon :D goodbye for now, and take care.

I wish DVD commentaries would be this good!
Or they could make it obligatory to include a sarcastic commentary alongside the real one.

When I become a director and make my first film, I’ll invite you to do the honors, sir.
I’d think it was great if someone recorded a “take the piss-commentary” for a film I’d made.
A bit like the critics’ commentaries for the Matrix films.

Speaking of which, Spoony did a Matrix commentary a long time ago which was merciless!

“I've got 99 problems, but a bitch isn't one.”

LOL that line was awesome. For some reason this made me want to watch Rocky and Bullwinkle & Friends. I didn't expect these guys to actually go “back in time” using a way back machine. Anyways great commentary as usual.

Well I'm a olde time wrestling fan. I don't keep up on any current stuff anymore, but I found his wrestling stuff hilarious. You would probably have had to watch some wrestling before and liked it at one point to really get it though. Anyways it's cool to see new fans. Take it easy.

Cap'n. Z-Ro looks like a bad Angry Joe Vargas impression….the sets and models look like a chintzy version of those “Rocky Jones” movies MST3K riffed to death, and that's interesting because both Z-Ro and Jones were kiddie TV shows from the 1950s.

1:01- Are they trying to give the audience seizures with the constant flashing Captain Z-ro
1:15- Where on earth is this place?
3:42- Your work for the hero and fight bad guys, How famous do you want to be?
4:59- “TELL ME!”. You don't have to get in his face.
5:15- It was successful but they got themselves killed foolishly.
6:20- We couldn't possibly screw up the space time continuum this way.
12:18- Lets violate the space time continuum, Jet. Even though he will invent this eventually.
12:58- zing? What kind of finishing word is that?. Energize.
15:02- Leave it to Jet, The sequel to leave it to beaver.
16:48- Just like when Albert Einstein kills Hitler when he was going to art school. It screwed things up even more.
17:38- Petroleum limitless?! It's a user controlled source that has limited amount of storage.
19:12- They also had them in Russia too. They were regarded as impractical so they stopped working on them.http://www.damninteresting.com/hovering-in-history. Here's a flying hovercraft. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TCf-gJKEgm8.
25:12- Man, Jet really is stupid. There probably is a reason why people don't fly with wings. Not to mention the violated the continuum by losing the wings.

Do you have any more episodes to show us? where did you get them?

I used to hear that damn Talking Heads song all the time at work I was so sick of it, but when Spoony cited a couple of lines from it I burst out laughing so loud. Leonardo actually makes me kinda sad, but Spoony's commentary cheers me up and makes me laugh. I had to comment one more time about that.

joeengland

Y'know, I have to say, as ridiculous and outdated and twee as that whole thing was, you could tell they sort of had their hearts in the right place. Captain Z-Ro actually comes off as a fairly wise fellow, and the plight of Leonardo is actually compelling. There's certainly plenty to make fun of, but it's not, say… Uwe Boll bad. It's Ed Wood bad. Which is far less malicious.

haha, what a rip-off. I can see a billion and one things that are wrong with that show, and a billion and two things that Doctor Who could do way better. For starters he wouldn't rip the whole of the time/space continuum apart just to tell a guy he's gonna be famous when he's dead. Secondly, he wouldn't have a companion who would be willing to throw himself off of a tower to get famous. Thirdly, he has style.
Fourthly, this was realy funny XD I burst out laughing when you sung the Doctor Who theme tune :D

Jet is a Dumb Ass You forgot about that!

http://timeagentavril.deviantart.com/ Rhianna. But call me Vamp

Yush, which is precisely why The Doctor would never choose him.

godzillaexpert

Unless if it was a dare or Disney

http://timeagentavril.deviantart.com/ Rhianna. But call me Vamp

OMG U HAVE ATLAS IN YOUR ICON *fangirl moment over*
1) The Doctor would NEVER take someone who was likely to kill themselves, just because he was dared to.
2) Disney doesn't count coz Disney sucks big time.

Spoony, Jet jumping off the top of that building with the flying machine seriously called for you to sing, “Yor's world, he's the man, Yor's world, he's the man…”

Whoah, that Mona Lisa was huge.

Damn these old shows are so cute. And stupid.

This reminds me of of the episode of Star Trek Voyager when the holographic Da Vinci goes to the alien planet with the mobile emitter, according to wikipedia that was episode 79 titled Concerning Flight.

“For starters he wouldn't rip the whole of the time/space continuum apart just to tell a guy he's gonna be famous when he's dead.”

umm Episode 210 “Vincent and the Doctor”

“The Doctor offers to show Vincent something, and takes him in the TARDIS back to Musée d'Orsay in 2010. There, the Doctor initiates a discussion with an art historian, Dr. Black, within earshot of Vincent; Dr. Black gushes about Vincent's work, referring to him as “the greatest painter of them all”. Overjoyed at hearing this, Vincent hugs Dr. Black and kisses his cheeks in gratitude.” – Wikipedia

Maybe they believed in the concept of a stable time loop where causality is self-determined as a perpetuated certainty?

…

… they didn't, did they?

Well, that's one planet whose time and space is now completely fucked, whose next? (I bet Q was sitting somewhere taking notes).

Ah, back in the days when space scientists could just induct young boys off the street to take part in their narcissistic hero fantasies, whisking them away to some secret location and expecting them to faithfully perform the tasks delegated to an MiT Graduate NASA orbital traffic controller, without giving in to the temptation to hit the history eraser button or realize what a laughable farce their boss’s “science” is and question the idiocy of wearing his initials on every article of clothing he wears around the same time the kid discovers the joys of masturbation.

You should do more episodes of this. Or Riff something similar. This is gold.

The “help!” (flying platform scene) cracked me up more than anything else in this video. Perfectly timed.

Yes… the famous painting, Mona Lisa, which in real life is like five times smaller… They just keep getting it wrong in all the TV shows and comics, has nobody actually SEEN the real thing? (Except me because I’VE obviously been to the Louvre, duh. *puts on snob glasses™ and sips some expensive French wine*)

http://twitter.com/Arella18 Rebecca Wright

Actually the Mona Lisa used to be alot larger than it currently is there was alot more background. The painting after switching hands so much was cut down to the size it is today. it also had more of her dress. Take an actual art class and learn more about one of the most famous paintings in the world. Just going to see it in person however you’re right that’s still just a blown up version of the modern Mona Lisa.
