@@choosecarefully408 I also like how at 1:17:50, they’re ‘watching the planes’ with binoculars, even though the Golden Gate Bridge is nowhere near the airport, about 16 MILES north.
An interesting piece of trivia: this movie/pilot actually made it to series and survived an incredible six episodes. Unfortunately for Pernell Roberts, he was replaced in the series with Lloyd Bridges whose characterization he would spoof ten years later in Airplane.
Yes...it became part of the rotating series FOUR-IN-ONE, which also included MCCLOUD, NIGHT GALLERY, and THE PSYCHIATRIST (starring Roy Thinnes of the GENERAL HOSPITAL episode broken down into "shorts")
I'm surprised it made six episodes. This pilot took 3 possible episodes, 1. Congressmen stuck on a plane that might crash. 2. A grand heist to steal a lot of money. 3. A boy steals a plane but doesn't know how to fly it. What else is there? A terrorist episode I guess, maybe an episode dealing with a secret military plane... Pretty much it, end of show.
The congressman who didn't like it "at all" was Jason Wingreen, the original voice of Boba Fett. He also went on to appear in a 1980's TV movie called "International Airport", starring George Kennedy. So now we know where George Kennedy is in all of this. You're welcome!
"I'll explain it to you again, um..." "You're a loser and we're sending you away" "It's just that sometimes married people..." "...break up because of their kids" "...simply have to live apart for a while" "apart from their kids I mean" "You're gonna get a divorce" "Yes, and *I* don't want custody." "That hasn't been decided" "Although because of you it's very likely" "Do we have to go now?" "YOU have to go now."
They are SO MEAN to Davey and it's amazing. They spend that whole scene with Davey and his mom making one cutting joke at his expense after another, then they just keep at it the rest of the episode. "No one told Pernell Roberts that Davey had the IQ of a box turtle."
I'm seeing a lot of comments about this up and down the thread - I feel like it's worth pointing out that the original print probably wouldn't of looked that way - The print was probably not well-preserved and so the cyan dye faded on it, making everything look like the color of a dish cloth. although even during it's time it probably looked all washed-out and shit.
Actually, this is the pilot of a TV series which ran for six episodes before it was cancelled. None of the actors in the pilot returned for the show, except for Clu Gulager.
Makes you wonder why he didn't go the SOL and kick some ass! He'd have been like,"Screw this,if you want things done,you gotta do it yourself! I'm gonna kick some robot ass!"
I really thought you guys were joking with the whole Dr. Forrester thing before I saw it myself but the sheer fact that he has even a semblance of muscle tone hit me like a fucking train
I have a feeling that the visual irony of Frank’s gut vs Forester’s bod was intentional in this skit 😂 there’s no doubt that other MSTies felt the same as you!
@@SanchoKobe i actually genuinely like stranded in space--it has JUST enough potential to have been a decent movie (or show), but ultimately stumbles in too many places, too many times.
Dr. Forester is more fit than I thought... That weird moment when I realize he could best me in a fight. It makes me uncomfortable with how fit Dr. Forester is.
This episode was nominated for an Emmy in the writing category, but lost to "The Dennis Miller Show." There were more (and funnier) jokes in this one show than a whole season of "The Dennis Miller Show."
Although Airplane! borrowed heavily from the "airliner in peril" theme popular in movies since the early 1950s, there were no references to any scenes or dialogue from "San Francisco International Airport" in AIrplane! (Airplane II parodied space-themed movies and TV shows, and not aviation). Having a weakness for 1960s and 1970s disaster movies, I did a term paper for a college course on how aviation and space developments were reflected in popular film and TV. The paper summarized all the various references in Airplane!
I think SST Death Flight (1977, TV movie) was also another uncredited remake of Zero Hour. Zero Hour clearly did inspire Airplane (which was a virtual remake like the second Psycho was of the Hitchcock classic) but there are a lot of similar plot points in SST Death Flight down to a disgraced ex-pilot, a doctor, a marriage/relationship in trouble, and breakout of illness on the plane flight. There's too much for it to be coincidental! Today, I think they're far more blatant about remakes. Also, when SST Death Flight was made in the 1970s there was already a trend to downplay B & W films and they were being shown far less (on TV) starting then than they were previously in the 1960s since TV had pretty much converted to color broadcast and the vast majority of homes in the US had color sets after the late 1960s. It may have been enough time passed where Zero Hour became a faded memory. (I've watched Airplane for years and NEVER heard about Zero Hour until recently... It just wasn't advertised well and doesn't get shown much on TV. I finally saw it offline this past weekend! It's much better than SST Death Flight which is pure crap but is played so straight it's unintentionally funny, too. It's also a sad film because you can see how much Dana Andrews has deteriorated and he looks very haggard in the movie.) I'm not saying SST influenced Airplane or that Airplane was a remake of it... These two films just happen to remake or spoof the same source, Zero Hour (1957). This happens all the time but people generally only remember the memorable remakes. Casablanca (1942, Humphrey Bogart) is the third version made of that story in film. Nobody remembers the previous two films!
An equally significant irony in Airplane! was the casting of Robert Stack as Captain Kramer. He had played Captain Sullivan in 1954's The High and The Mighty, which is generally recognized among film historians as the first of the "airliner in peril" themed films. And the scene in Airplane when the runway lights go out during final approach was taken directly from SST.
That whole segment is just gold: You know, Jesus was a hippy! Well look at him! I see him. I can't take my eyes off him. You know any Donovan? I'm not looking for jokes. I am looking for some pot though, know where I can buy some? Oh, he's a made for TV hippy.
You know, I feel like the Urkel sketches really only work if you're someone like me that lived through the 90s and remembers how stupidly popular Urkel was.
"I'll explain it to you again. Umm..." "You're a loser and we're sending you away." "It's just that, sometimes... married people" "Break up because of their kids." "Simply have to live apart for awhile." "Apart from their kids I mean." "You're gonna get a divorce..." "Yes, and I don't want custody." "That hasn't been decided." "Although because of you it's very likely." "Do we have to go now?" "YOU have to go now."
"Davey, climb out on the wing, we're gonna switch planes." "Your gonna die, down there!" "Davey, I need to know where your dental records are." "The faces of those you've wronged will be floating up on your left." "Davey you're going to meet a man in a black robe who wants to play chess with you." "Okay that's enough for today, tomorrow I'll teach you how to actually land the plane" "You hold him, we'll punch him!"

Wait a second!!! So the pilot's wife gets kidnapped, held at gunpoint, threatened multiple times throughout the day. Then, when everything is said and done, the wife gets sent home with a sedative and the husband goes back to work? O.o I'm pretty sure this would be a good time to take a few days off and spend some time together, seeing as how you've just had a very stressful day.
I really had to laugh- I was just getting ready to reply: "Yeah, but you should see Joel in some of the early episodes. There's a reason they called him "the sleepy-eyed guy" but then I realized your were talking about Forrester's physique. Hahaha! (Well, it was funny to me....)
Analogkid, it is a real treat to find your channel. I have been a MSTY since 1991 and I have seen countless episodes....But this one, I have not ever seen. Thanks kid. Your channel is the one I watch most. And with my Iphone, I can now watch MST3K Anywhere....And thats important cuz I work a graveyard shift. Next to Reagan, and The Founding Fathers and our US Troops, and the HVAC repair guy, you are a frikkin hero!
@@Nimbasa180 Surprised these guys never thought to do a MST3K calendar. Mike in drag, the bots in whatever, & Dr. Forrester & Frank as construction-workers. They'd have to do something better for Mary Jo than be a floating head though. At this point, she hadn't become 'Pearl' yet. Torgo makes a surprise appearance as 'September.'
"Thank you, Token!" "There's a 'Grace Slick' on the runway." "They overbooked the credits." "It's Pernell Robert's elaborate trick to demonstrate the need for men's room phones!" "It's a black eye!" "It's an eye of color." "Child-of-a-messy-divorce on runway 2!" "No one told Pernell that Davey had the IQ of a box turtle."
Yeah, the Upright Citizens Brigade didn't get their own cable show until a few years after this episode, and even then she wasn't really on everyone's radar until she was on network tv a few years after that.
As a private pilot I see a bit of a procedural issue in the opening. The tower clears them to land on "runway 1 Right, winds 2-8-zero at one-niner", meaning the winds were blowing from magnetic heading 280, west to east. This means the plane is lining up to land with a direct 90-degree crosswind instead of landing on the more obvious runway 28 (left or right, take your pick) which would face them directly into a headwind, exactly what you want for landing. The two Runway 28s are considerably longer than the two Runway 1s which would have given the plane more room to have a landing gear malfunction. Their presumed "emergency" was faulty landing gear so it's not like they were out of fuel and had to land immediately so they had time to line up for runway 28. If there are any commercial pilots out there who can provide a reasonable explanation, let me know. (Wait...were the tower controllers in on the gag??)
"All the church would do is move him to another parish" Unexpectedly savage.
You know, they never did find the actual hippie who shoved in line at the candy counter.

I really had to laugh- I was just getting ready to reply: "Yeah, but you should see Joel in some of the early episodes. There's a reason they called him "the sleepy-eyed guy" but then I realized your were talking about Forrester's physique. Hahaha! (Well, it was funny to me....)
Samantha, *HAH!*
I was trying to see if it was painted on or not. It kind of looks legit lol
He and Frank both have a ton of bronzer on, his abs are painted on I believe.
quite SEXY
"Deb is private stock, man!"
Analogkid, it is a real treat to find your channel. I have been a MSTY since 1991 and I have seen countless episodes....But this one, I have not ever seen. Thanks kid. Your channel is the one I watch most. And with my Iphone, I can now watch MST3K Anywhere....And thats important cuz I work a graveyard shift. Next to Reagan, and The Founding Fathers and our US Troops, and the HVAC repair guy, you are a frikkin hero!
I'm a little uncomfortable with how fit Dr Forrester is.
He's got a freaking 6-pack.! What gives??? ....Dr Forrester.
Right?! Had to do a double take on that one. Got a lil steamy in here.
I was about to say.. Jesus H. Christ boy is FIT. Even TVs Frank is that fat-fit THICC
@@Nimbasa180 Surprised these guys never thought to do a MST3K calendar. Mike in drag, the bots in whatever, & Dr. Forrester & Frank as construction-workers.
They'd have to do something better for Mary Jo than be a floating head though. At this point, she hadn't become 'Pearl' yet.
Torgo makes a surprise appearance as 'September.'
you have to stay in shape if you want to conquer the world.
thanks for posting this! It was part of my revival of the "Turkey Day" marathon of MST3K begun by Comedy Central in 1991.
I still think the actress playing Davey's mom looks a lot like a redheaded 70s version of Amy Poehler.
I know this is old but I was looking at her like where do I know her from🤔. You are spot on. Amy good call👏👏👏✌
Mania has its perks.
wow claiton is actually pretty damn ripped
That's exactly what I was thinking....
LMAO at 30:23. "Sure call the flight Ross, what do I care?"
"Thank you, Token!"
"There's a 'Grace Slick' on the runway."
"They overbooked the credits."
"It's Pernell Robert's elaborate trick to demonstrate the need for men's room phones!"
"It's a black eye!" "It's an eye of color."
"Child-of-a-messy-divorce on runway 2!"
"No one told Pernell that Davey had the IQ of a box turtle."
Gina Williams I'm Ziggy Stardust!
Geez, ever since Vatican 2 these guys!
Dr. Zaius!
Now son Scotch is a good breakfast drink!
You know, people are gonna hate you for quite a while, Davey
Stuck at home because of COVID-19? Best time to play video games with MST3K playing in the background 😎
I mean why not?!
Simultaneous MST3K/Best of the Worst and video games got me through 2020 just wonderfully
damn Dr. Forrester looking pretty ripped
Yea, I was thinking the same thing. Who wudda' thought??
hmmm things where certainly orange in the 70s
Whup - Child of messy divorce on runway 2.
tim callender All those people down there are getting divorced because of you Davey!
"I wanna check out that story by Conrad!"
"It's called Heart of Darkness!"
God I love this show.
That chick looks like Amy Poehler. I kept waiting for them to say something, but it was obviously too long ago to have her be on everyone's radar.
Yeah, the Upright Citizens Brigade didn't get their own cable show until a few years after this episode, and even then she wasn't really on everyone's radar until she was on network tv a few years after that.
"No, I'm not the boy upset about the divorce..."
Davey? All those people down there are getting divorced because of you!
Ah, the 70's. When orange was the new every-other-color-of-the-rainbow!
Sara Black where is your avatar from
@@johnudiskey3056 It's the MST3k episode The Brain That Wouldn't Die
That, or olive green. Brrrrrr.
"I wish they filmed this movie in color."
Ooo9oo999oœo9oooo9o999o9
Dr. Forrester needed to go shirtless more often...rawr...
You know your photo has kind of a Diane Mahree quality to it...rawr...
analogkid01 Thank you :)
Dr F shirtless? Please God nooooooooo!
***** The Doctor.....
.....is in.
*YEAAAAAAAAH*
Melanie Elaine Dr. Forrester and TV's Frank are no Slab Beefchunks (or even a Bob Johnson), but still....rowrrr!
Son, scotch is a good breakfast drink
nelsonr12 I'm a beer and cornflakes in the morning man myself !!!
I'm a corn liquor and Total man myself.
I'll miss my neo renissance lifestyle *sob* and.... my windbreaker *whimper*
Well, there'll always be Battlestar Galactaca, that'll never be cancelled!
"The answer my friend is blow it out your ass!" Can't stop laughing at this!!! Looks like I picked the wrong day to stop sniffing glue!!!
I just wanted to let you know that we're all counting on you ;)
And don't call me Shirley!
mid 70s made for tv movies are just too easy for these guys.
"Y'know, all the church will do is move this guy to another parish."
For real. Been doing this shit for CENTURIES
For Hollywood, around a 100 years.
"Rest until you no longer move."
Rice-A-Roni, the San Francisco treat.
This really is like watching Airplane without a punchline. Not even MST3k could save this bag of farts.
Airplane without a punchline is just Zero Hour.... ua-cam.com/video/8-v2BHNBVCs/v-deo.html
"I went over to the candy counter to buy a pack of diet gum. . ."
"Oh, you mean for fatsos?"
As a private pilot I see a bit of a procedural issue in the opening. The tower clears them to land on "runway 1 Right, winds 2-8-zero at one-niner", meaning the winds were blowing from magnetic heading 280, west to east. This means the plane is lining up to land with a direct 90-degree crosswind instead of landing on the more obvious runway 28 (left or right, take your pick) which would face them directly into a headwind, exactly what you want for landing. The two Runway 28s are considerably longer than the two Runway 1s which would have given the plane more room to have a landing gear malfunction. Their presumed "emergency" was faulty landing gear so it's not like they were out of fuel and had to land immediately so they had time to line up for runway 28. If there are any commercial pilots out there who can provide a reasonable explanation, let me know. (Wait...were the tower controllers in on the gag??)
Every time I watch this ep, I bask in the glow of what I believe is the perfect joke: "Insert Tab A into B movie."
Back when kids could walk on the runway and hotdogs were only $5
"I need to know where your dental records are"
Everybody down there hates you
Hilarious !!
1:02:34 "I'm gonna splatter myself all over the tarmac to impress dad!" lol Tom Servos ridiculous voices get me every time
Servo to Crow: "I had no idea you were ancient!"
That made me laugh harder than it should have lol
God, I love all the brutality Davey gets. "Bye-bye, sucker."
That was the highlight for me to
It's like you've watched so much MST3K it's osmosed into your very soul. Bravo, sir.
22:40 I like the subtle layering inside the Urkel joke that Dr. Forrester is EXTREMELY concerned that Frank might be having fun.
Damn...for a MST3K spoof the show was actually pretty entertaining.
Brad Wilson Are you me from another dimension??
Maybe...Are you Junior or J a middle name. mines Erik.
you two need to fight to decide who gets to stay in this reality
Indeed, the MST3K crew always encouraged sharing their episodes...Hence the "Keep circulating the tapes" message in the credits of every epiisode
