"Lily on Peligro Island"
I didn't have much to say earlier about this episode, and everyone asks, so here is more. I wish someone would just fly me to Australia or Japan and I could do this all on the DVDs. I asked to. But I am happy to take any and all of your questions here.
Where on freaking earth is Peligro? You all have wondered, I know. Well, here is the answer: it is just south of Shangri La and north of Brigadoon. It is a beautiful place.
Ewww -- dented head. I LOVE the log hat! A new fashion trend. And so ecologically friendly!
Blonde queen on the beach is Debbie.
I am always amused that Astro, who was constructed first, is parented by much later, lesser robots.
Kahlei is mom, of course, and Rich is dad.
Oh, no! I hope that's not the cruise ship Carolina again, going down for the last time! No! "Save the Carolina!"
I am the blue and white striped prisoner. Paul is the guy in the peaked cap.
Paul is also the sunglasses crook. Greg is the bearded old man.
And now the news you have all been so urgently demanding: Lily is Becky, who also voiced Urane.
Dave is the blonde crewmate, very briefly seen.
Really nice work by Greg in this show. Rich is the "we not let strangers" native.
Oh, ick, Debbie wants to do Astro?
This is an early show -- really early. Generally you can tell how early a show is by how many of the cast are in it; we added more actors as we went. You can also tell how early it is by how closely we match lip movements; we got lazier as we went -- especially when Linda directed. Later, we fell really far behind on schedule, and Del was away, and we just burned through a bunch of episodes with Linda.
She's a friend still, and I see her a few times a year -- and she was our producer -- but she did not take it all too seriously. Mike DeMark, our primary engineer, was NOT pleased! He had to spend many days editing tape, because we were sloppy. But time was running out. There was an increasing sense of urgency to finish the show. It all took much longer than planned. We couldn't even book our prime studio anymore, and were bumped to a tiny room. We took naps on the floor and did 12 hour days and literally drank cough syrup from bottles, because our throats were so raw.
Linda gave great parties, though! She had an amazing home.
I don't know why this show is so asked-about here. It's pretty run of the mill. Not our best by far, and a little bit racist. Ooga booga natives! (Shudders.)
All right -- as you see, I can greatly expand on any episode you want, if you give me a little time. Ask me anything? I am here for you.
But damn! You better all complain and get me voice work in the new movie!
I'm tired, so please excuse any typos here, and please correct them if you post it anywhere else.
