Day 239: The Space Pirates Episode 2

Dullness continues as the viewer comes to a sudden realisation. Not the viewer at the time, but the viewer in the present. It's because this story concerns a society where some people went out into space to find wealth, only for the Space Corps to come out and introduce law and order. These people who went out in the first place remain untrusting of the Space Corps, but continue on their business in their ramshackle ships. It's essentially the same plot as Joss Whedon's Firefly. Seriously, Robert Holmes created Firefly before Joss Whedon! It's not the same as Firefly though because it's unsufferably dull. So tomorrow, I'm going to look at why Firefly succeeds where The Space Pirates fails, as well as introduce a new element to this little blog.
