Totally geeking out over this...way to go Aharon and Red Giant and every happy geek involved...and the grumpy ones too! ;-)
Was that an event horizon I noticed in the background?
Luv it :) it's always a pleasure to see you as an actor :)
Amazing work David!
FANTASTIC performance! And, as Aharon’s sister, I’m an authority on... well... uh... nothing, really....
Thanks for keeping an eye on my baby brother (who’s actually a lot bigger than I am; so don’t tell
him I called him that or he’ll be sending me lens flare text messages all night). Your comments on
the “Behind the Scenes” episode we’re perfect. We wouldn’t want him to be getting a swelled head,
now would we?
Stargate
Everyone knows how computers work.
Clearly not half the people in my office.
I can't tell you how happy it makes me that someone else remembers Automan.
i jnow, rare to find someone that remembers automan and manimal and otherworld

Automan and who and what?
This was so funny. I loved Automan back in the day, so Chuck Wagner's cameo was a bonus! The reference to Stargate reminded me of a similar scene in the opening of "The A-Team". Well done!
Audrey - You win the prize! That is EXACTLY what that was supposed to reference.
The guy with the eye-patch was a reference to Airwolf and also there was a nod to Glen A. Larson.
The lens flair joke killed me. Very funny and well done.
And he even looks a little like JJ Abrams.
OMG! That was hilarious. I remember the old Automan show and loved the 80's cheese. And kudos for getting Chuck Wagner to replay his role.
IMDb says Dezi Arnaz Jr only had 3 more acting gigs after this show ended after 13 episodes. He retired in 2010.
I love it! So many great references to catch too (Airwolf’s Archangel, Stargate’s wormhole, Knight Rider, The A-Team, V, R2’s hologram etc.) plus the final cameo from Automan, himself Chuck Wagner! I’m geeking out and I need more 🤩👍
Glad you enjoyed it!
Would be interesting to see this get crowd funded into an actual 2-3 episode mini series. I mean after all, someone paid to have a moving made about sharks in a tornado and this is way better then that.
Yeah, it reminds me of Heat Vision and Jack except it probably cost a lot less to make.
If anyone from a studio is watching this has greatness written all over it
This honestly looks like the most important thing to humanity right now
This is amazing, it needs more views.
I adored Automan as a kid and love the Hewlett as an adult, so this just made all my geek girl fetish joys bounce with happiness! And the attention to detail was just brilliant!
Do it again, please.
3:42 OMG OMG OMG STARGATE REF !!!!! OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG
lol that got me
Was that supposed to be a Star Wars reference at 3:40 ?
rebeatle play and James Mcenanly both of those totally flew by me, thank you!
HOW DID I MISS THAT THE FIRST TIME?!
The 80s show intro is the best part! Brilliant!
I love David Hewlett, but what really makes this awesome is the return of Automan. If the show was originally cancelled because it cost too much, with CGI they could make it much more cheaply. I say bring it back.
It would be pretty hard to duplicate that awesome 80s campiness we all miss. Stranger Things came close a few times.
LOVE THIS,, made me totally smile ,, thanks for this McKay
Can this become a real thing?
plz make it so
Oh brilliant ! I Love the taste of the 80th. Best time ever ! Thanks, it makes me smile !
YAY! Automan reference that only a few old people like me love.
Jason's Voices sent me :3
Love the neon tron like feel (and it reminds me a lot also Automan) oh crap, i feel old.
and i would definetly watch a show making fun of the 80's tropes, almost like King Fury but nerdier.
I so remember watching Automan this is based on years ago!
Been waiting for this to become “Generally Available” so I could brag to all my friends about my brother! The BEST Red Giant film yet!!! Uh... no disrespect to Seth Worley (whose talent and work I admire)... but being Aharon’s sister, ... I’m not exactly impartial, here. Bro, I am SO proud of you! Always knew you had the talent and tenacity! And, BTW, as you can see from the comments, I’m not the only one who thinks this should be made into a series. Love and continued success. - your geeky doting older sister.👩👦❤️
Ah!! The throwback to Automan, lol! I used the love that show! Nice work guys!
I keep coming back to this. Just doesn't get old.
This was a very fun project to produce, great work everyone!
Holy cow, this really worked. David has amazing comic timing.
Not only Knight Rider, but I also see some Airwolf stuff :) Nicely done.
Great to see the History of Future Folk cameo! :)
I'd watch the heck out of this!
When you figured out that you could, you didn't stop to think if you should.
I've never seen Automan but I still love this, probably cos I love most 1980s nostalgia invoking stuff such as the BBC series Ashes to Ashes.
Really great work, guys! Such an awesome short.
This is freaking awesome! Loved every minute of it!
SO TOTALLY RADICAL!
Really takes me back. Love it!
Lars A. Glensson! AHAHAHAHAHHAH! Homage to Glen A. Larsson!
This is awesome! Clever references.
Very well done with the retro feel! Made me laugh a few times too!
Chuck Wagner hasn't half let himself go.lol
Awesome short guys! very nice production!
OH, That was so cool!! Thank You for bringing back so many fond memories!!
Chuck Rocks!
Dig it! Great work by everyone on this project!
HAHA Perfect end line from Aharon! Excellent short!
Hilarious and sooo well done!
A hilarious take on the 80's. Gosh!!! I miss the fun, out of this world TV series!
I LOVE DAVID HEWLETT
Who doesn't?
Found this after watching your interview on Twit's Triangulation. Made me laugh my arse off. Thanks for this. Bravo!
Oh yeah.. He was really good in Scanners 2.. Automan still kicks ass.
Great retro-comedy!! And I can't believe that the CEO of Maxon is playing a role in it!! Awesome community!
lol loved this. Awesome! love the 80s sound track =)
Nice Chuck Wagner cameo!
I loved Automan. It was super bad. But fun. Cant explain. The theme spoof is top notch !
awesome short. I loved it.
AUTOMAN!!!!!!
This was fantastic!
I'm currently watching Automan, so this is great!
Where did you find it?
@Greg Amazon. Price has gone up since though.
This is awesome! Loved the Stargate ref.
This was perfect but needs more lens flare.
OMG I LOVE YOU FOR THIS!!!
So cool! Well done
I kinda want a real tv show of this...
Bravo!! 🎉. This was priceless joy❤
Enjoyed the *heck* out of this, David Hewlett was perfect for this, so glad he was game for it! Created by Lars A. Glennson LOLOLOL.
The only thing that would have made this more perfect would have been a really quick cameo by Robert Picardo.... =)
This is so awesome!
Nice work!
This may be the best thing to happen in all of 2020.
Of course, I think the bar’s been set fairly low and cabin fever is getting to everyone.
Or 2017 when this was uploaded.
This is amazing, how come I've never seen this!
Awesome !! A perfect short about 80's sci-fi drama shows. #automan
I wonder if David remembered the Automan series when he was approached for this.
I just imagine that is what it's like working for JJ Abrams. "MORE LENS FLARE!!"
Toooo funny! Loved it.
Chuck Wagner = RAD!!!
Soooo cool and funny!!!!!!!! Love this, David
The STARGATE's at 3:42!!!
Great to hear Jason "Beer-and-Board-Games" Stephens in this.
It's great to be in it!
10/10 would watch it every week
Mere man cannot fathom how much I want this to be a real thing
Brilliant
SPECTACULAR!
Thank you. Thank you, so much.
Hondo! Delightful cameo in a great video!
ahahhahhahahhah LOVE IT! the VHS look is a bit overpowered but I love the rest! Still Amazing in 2021!
HONDO! Loved the Future Folk cameo.
I love this so hard!
best film ever
I have been bingewatching Automan, and I think there is a chance to rewrite the series modernly to make it work nowdays. For example, Automan is an advanced AI that is almost at Singularity level, that one day asks his creator to make a strange device it "invented": an electromagnetic projector that allows him to manifest in reality.
3:41 The great Rodney McKay's back! :D
This is just AWSOME...only thing against...TOO SHORT!!!! You should considerate do more perhaps? All sci-fi fans would LOVE!!!
Why isn't this a real series? Looks like can be a hit!
Red Giant is stepping forward, to go backward.
I really want to see the first season of this
Paul Babbbbbb! haha, this is great! :D
J.J ABRAMS Lens Flares

OMG LOVE IT!
Incredible. xD
