I should have listened to you guys when you said it was good years ago. Can we have a Space Ghost thread?

It started as a light night filler Mike Lazzo did for shits and giggles, which eventually led to Adult Swim. Of course before that happened, the Space Ghost gang starred in projects more directly intended for kids, like Cartoon Planet. (Which Cartoon Network surprisingly brought back—with Andy as Brak and Clay as Zorak—a few years ago.)

true, and I'm pretty sure the tranny didn't get the joke and tried too hard to play along as Space Ghost poked jokes at it and hung up prematurely. Still, that fucker was annoying and cringey, and not the fun awkward kind.

Evan Dorkin wrote a lot of the early episodes.
Heh, he name-dropped it in Eltingville, where the club decided they didn't like Coast To Coast because it made Space Ghost look silly.
And they even referenced it in the ultra-gritty Space Ghost revival, by having Ghost's real name be Thaddeus, and having his wife look like Bjork.

Space Ghost Coast to Coast is one of Cartoon Network's best shows ever made.

SGCTC had that one episode where Brak was yelling at Space Ghost, giving him sass, and Space Ghost just kept blowing up Zorak instead, and Brak was yelling that YOU CAN'T BLOW ME UP, CAN YOU? AND YOU KNOW WHY? BECAUSE THE ANIMATORS DIDN'T HAVE THE BUDGET TO DRAW IT, DID THEY?
I love Brak. Someone once asked him why he's so dumb on Coast To Coast, and so smart on the old cartoon, and he said "I was a great space pirate, then Space Ghost threw our ship into the piranha nebula, I fell asleep, and woke up dumb as a doornail".
