TV shows don’t get produced like Space Ghost Coast to Coast anymore. The creators were basically told by Cartoon Network to whip together a cheap animated show for adults. What came out of that? An old, obscure ‘60s superhero, Space Ghost, was recontextualized into a talk-show host. Animation was reused. The budget was razor thin. And yet, the end product is a delight.
Space Ghost Coast to Coast legitimately birthed Adult Swim, and thus the Adult Swim style of comedy. Low key, this is one of the most-influential shows of the 1990s. It’s an absurdist delight.
Part of the fun is the style of Space Ghost’s interviews. Real people were interviewed in the real world, and their answers were cut into the show haphazardly and for the sake of humor, which was pretty brilliant.
