Ha Haaa -- Jenny the stoner robot! -- I'll have to check it out, but the animation style is NOT appealling to me at all. I prefer more realistic cartoons.

BTW Jeffbert, I'm not familiar with Broadcasts from Outer Space. Is that one of the Japanese-only episodes? Do we have a thread for that here or on TIE? Thanks!!

Broadcasts from Outer Space is a manga episode, so you can read it from one of the mangas, (I forget which volume though, but I think its the 9th). It could be possible they made an episode of that in the 60's series, but I don't really know if they did.
You're not a joke, you fit right in!
So shake it off, and give a grin. Don't be afraid to stand your ground! Crazy, noisy BIZARRE Town!

Well I'm a fan of science fiction, I'm (mostly) interested in anything that involves robots, spaceships, ...well you get the point. XD

Jenny suffers from short circuits when exposed to water in a similar way to many other fictional bots. And yeah, the style ain't that realistic either.

Thanks, Anime Girl -- sure enough it's the last chapter in volume twelve. Pretty funny too. :)

I remember that. That was a funny one. I liked how it all went Dr. Seuss style in the end. I remember that Astro Boy story too. I have the manga with it XD

AprilSeven, I had to look in my INCARNATIONS TABLE to find the title of the B&W, as it differs from the manga:

161 Dream-selling Aliens :lol:
