Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy

This forum is for discussing Chuck's videos as they are publicly released. And for bashing Neelix, but that's just repeating what I already said.

Interesting sure, but it would run into the problem there always is with comedy episodes... you can't make jokes about the jokes.

And given how close the 81 show actually is to the radio play and book, basically everything being discussed is being discussed anyway.

You could do a compare and contrast.

If you're interested in such a thing, The Dom (who specializes in compare-and-contrast reviews of adaptations) did several videos on the topic of the radio show, books, television show, and the film.

Part 1 - The confusing timeline of The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy adaptations
Part 2 - The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy book adaptation
Part 3 - The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Lost in Adaptation
Part 4 - The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy Continued, Lost in Adaptation

Ah, "Life, the Universe, and Everything" - the classic appearance of the Bistromathic Engine and the Krikkitmen. So... Perspex or Plastic?
