Please remove your metalic wig in mourning.
Not if you're on duty! Those wigs are part of the uniform!
My wife and I were recently lent the 1st DVD collection. While I remembered the fantastic open credits (see the self-typing typewriters of 1980!), the cool props (SID, Skydiver, the two whole cars w/gull-wing doors), and the purple-haired moon secretaries, I had forgotten how truly
odd that show was. And by odd I mean wonderful.
Straker had a Booze-O-Tron right in his office. But he didn't drink.
The Moonbase resembled a chill-out lounge. And smoking was encouraged.
All the actors were on Quaaludes. Well, except for Straker, and his craggy-faced assistant who was always on the make...
The moon secretaries removed their purple wigs as soon as they went off duty. And they frequently used their breaks to change outfits, from catsuit to minidress and back again. But for all of that regulation tartiness, they were skill remarkable professional.
Oh, and it had alien organleggers who breathed green liquid. How cool is that?
