Space Ghost Coast to Coast/Funny

Are you getting enough oxygen, citizen?

No, I'm too busy laughing to catch my breath.

• From "Kentucky Nightmare":

Willie Nelson: (to a bear) Hey, how ya doin', Tex? Zorak: Eh, that bear's a Yankee. Willie Nelson: Well, (bleep) him.

• • And from the same episode, Space Ghost's Version of "Space Cowboy"

Space Ghost: Dumb people haul trash around

• Zorak brings his nephew to work. And then eats him. And DENIES it. With the kid's headless corpse right there.
  • This beautiful exchange:

Space Ghost: Zorak, where's your nephew? Zorak: Who? Oh, um, I devoured him. Space Ghost: That's barbaric! (Beat) Is there any left? Zorak: Lemme check. (looks off to the side) Nope. Space Ghost: I'm gonna miss that little guy.

• "Living with you is like living in a living nightmare!"
• One word. Flipmode.

Space Ghost: Who killed Walt Disney?! Beat With a wrench!

• • The entire episode, really.

Space Ghost: Now, woodpile, did you or did you not masquerade as eels and socked Zorak with that wrench? Answer me! Now, what about these beans? Moltar: Those must've fallen out of my hair. Beat Moltar: Well, you're just making all this BLEEP up! Beat Moltar: ...Oh, what? You're the only one that gets to make BLEEP up? Beat Moltar: *Sigh* ...Those are part of the dinner. Space Ghost: No they're not. They're part of the plot. Moltar: They were on the menu. Space Ghost: Murder is on the menu!

• Pavement, the episode written by Space Ghost himself.
• Fire Ant: Space Ghost does his damnest to try to show Conan O'Brian that he's a genius...it doesn't work.

Conan O'Brien. FACE IT SPACE GHOST! YOU'RE A SPACE MAN WHO CHOKED ON A MUFFIN! Space Ghost. THAT, SIR, IS IMPOSSIBLE BECAUSE I AM ALLERGIC TO MUFFINS!

• • This entry would be incomplete without mentioning the ant "chase" sequence in the full, uncut version of the episode. Space Ghost is bitten by an ant, then follows the ant out of the studio and across Ghost Planet. This sequence, when aired in full, takes ten minutes before it reaches its climax (and the end of the episode). There are no commercial breaks and the sequence is made up of Space Ghost following the ant while muttering to himself. The absurdity of the segment is enought to earn it placement here.
• Another episode dealt with Space Ghost trying to butter up as many big shot hosts as possible. It goes well with one, (name escapes me) but he had a skunk spot and they try complimenting him on that.
  • Zorak: It looks like a third eye! Space Ghost: ZORAK! Moltar: Hey hey ex-nay on the third eye. Zorak: I mean I like it...it's neat. Space Ghost: That's the nicest third eye I've ever seen! Guy: You like that huh? Big with the chicks.
    • Even worse SG was doing well...until he asked if his tongue ever got sore. It just fell apart right there faster than a stack of cards in a hurricane.
      • The guest was former host of "Talk Soup" Jon Henson.
• Zorak constantly trying to sell his product, an ointment, constantly cutting into Space Ghost's interviews.

SG: Okay Zorak I'm sick of this so do your stupid little pitch and get it out of your system! Zorak: Oh... um it's good... it's good ointment. SG: ...Is that it? Zorak: It's good ointment... ah, here put some on your scalp! SG: No! Zorak: Okay... it's your loss. SG: SHUT UP! Zorak: ...But see look at my pincer * gets blasted*

• The episode where SG and the Council of Doom host a cooking competition. Zorak constantly reminds everyone that he wants the bones when hes done, one cook 'relaxes the chicken', another cook is blasted to smithereens because she won't cook for SG.
  • "You... killed the chicken."
• "Jerk" where Space Ghost wants to do an 'Emmy-worthy' award show...and "Ten seconds and it's already in the toilet" and it gets worse from there somehow.
  • The end. Space Ghost is left all alone in his studio... until he asks if he's out here, who's behind the camera. Cue the voice of Chad Ghostal (Space Spectre) saying "Hello there, Tad..." and his Evil Laugh while Space Ghost has an Oh Crap expression on his face.
• "Zoltran" where Space Ghost attempts to interview Merril Markoe only to have her rip him a new one on EVERY SINGLE SILLY THING ABOUT THE SHOW!

Merill: So where are you? SG: I'm right here. Zorak: No stupid she means 'in space'! Merill: Are like 500 miles away from Jupiter or on the moon or something? SG: Oh...I'm over here, Merrill. Merill: You don't know what you're talking about do you? (she says that numerous times) Zorak: * bursts into laughter*

• The "Chambraigne" episode, the Chambraigne ad, Bob Costas narrating Space Ghost blasting Zorak off like a baseball gamed and completed with Gainax Ending

Space Ghost: I AM THE KING! Space Ghost: YOU WANNA A PIECE OF ME? YOU WANNA A PIECE OF THE KING?!

• The Christmas episode. Especially the 12 Days of Christmas.

Space Ghost: That was pitiful!

• The episode "Joshua" demonstrates how a typical episode is made. The narrator explains that every joke is tested on a randomly-selected audience.

Zorak: That's not my hand.... It's my pincer. Audience: (silence) Narrator: Oops, that line needs a little reworking. Zorak: That's not my hand.... It's my butt! Audience: (a single man laughs) Narrator: Looks like we've got a winner!

• • "MY BUTT!"
• You see, dames are like mustard. They taste great on a sandwich. But when you're not eating a sandwich, they just sit there in the refrigerator.
  • ...on a shelf.
  • ...in a jar.
  • ...labeled...
  • ...mustard.
• Idlewild South, where Space Ghost gets drunk. Highlights include him riding the guest monitor like a cowboy, jumping on his desk and acting like it's a surfboard, and when Moltar (who gave him beer to begin with) suggests maybe he drink some water...

Space Ghost: You drink some water with YOUR ASS!

• "I too, banged a dog up the ass."
• BAAAAANNNNNJOOOOOOO!!!

Moltar: Mmmmm, barbequed shrimp.

• This exchange, where Space Ghost plays a trivia game with his guests (with both the losers and the winners getting blasted)

Space Ghost: Zorak, this question is for you. (Zorak has an Oh Crap look on his face) I have a tattoo. Where is it, and what is it of? Zorak: Um-- Space Ghost: WRONG! (blasts Zorak)

• Sweet for Brak, in which Tenacious D's performance of "Fuck Her Gently" gets censored at the last moment with a TERRIBLE acoustic cover of "Good King Wenceslas".
• Many, many moments from Terminal. The scene in which Space Ghost imagines having a son (or a "Little Space Ghost" named Roy Allen) is one of the funniest and most demented things ever put on television.
  • "I DIDN'T HIT THE BALL TODAY!!!!"
• "LET THE POWER OF PONCH COMPEL YOU."
• “STUFF YOU!” “STUFF YOU TOO!”
• "Package for Space Ghost!" "From Zorak." (It turns out to be a bomb that EXPLODES)
  • Also from that same episode - Space Ghost's laughing fit upon hearing Mary Anne's "cute story" about her teeth.
• From the first episode: Zorak and Moltar's "evil" parodies of children's songs.
• The Birdman Coast to Coast theme, consisting of Word Salad Lyrics that only make slight sense, ending with "Diggin' uncle Birdman~!"
  • The ending theme is even funnier, just composed of lounge style music with the singers repeatedly going "Birdman..." like even THEY'RE tired of Birdman!
  • Birdman, unable to think of an introduction, yells his own name (although lightyears worse than Keith Andes' portrayal), which causes the camera's lens to break. And then the cameraman Screams Like a Little Girl.

Birdman: Uh, do I have to pay for that?

• • This whole scene:

Birdman: Uh, welcome, Ice and Tower, it's great to have you here... errr... Tower: How are you doing? Birdman: Eh, not so great, actually. I've got my entire life riding on this moment, and if it fails, it means the end of my marriage and my career... Lokar: Oh, gaze upon me! I am the pitiful, tragic Birdman! I flit about in total depression! Oh, poor pitiful me! My world is an elephant dung pile! Birdman: Okay, that's it! I can't work with this bug. He's getting on my nerves, and I can't understand a word he says anyway... Bob: Harvey, Harvey... calm down. Do the show, all right? Birdman: All right... Lokar: My hatred for you is delicious.

• "She DIGS me!" (flies out of the room and into space)
• "Hey, it's me watching me watching me!"
• At the end of "Batmantis": "I had the most awful dream! ...Let's have a bake sale."
• The end of "Gum, Disease." Space Ghost, upon thinking Danny Bonaduce has caught Moltar's sickness, asks him to open his mouth and say "ah." The guest does, saying "ah" so loud that it shatters the windows and everyone gets sucked into the vacuum of space.
  • Not to mention Space Ghost playing Sonic & Knuckles after the break! This was the last episode to be brought to you by Sega, so I guess the people at Ghost Planet Industries decided to give it a send-off.
• Space Ghost and Bobcat Goldthwait are going to have a party with cake, lemonade, and paper hats. And then The Ramones steal that idea.
• "David! You're bringing me down, man!"
  • Space Ghost and Donnie Osmond having a gleam-off.
• The Council of Doom's opening song in "President's Day Nightmare."
  • Also in that episode, Brak yelling at Genndy Tatarvosky to tell him the time.
  • Craig McCracken and Space Ghost's discussion about the latter not being an actual ghost.
  • Space Ghost and Zorak singing about the winning cartoon being a tie. And Space Ghost has an actually good singing voice!
  • Blip's first scene, where Space Ghost can't understand him and eventually says to "get the monkey off the stage."
• The second half of the first Clip Show. Enough said. (For those who haven't seen, it's the events of "Banjo" retold by a Mister Rogers kinda guy, with accompanying poorly drawn images. The way Space Ghost looks is hilarious.)
• From the episode "Girlie Show," the ejector seat. The rest of the episode from there is priceless.
  • "FREE JACK KLUGMAN"
• The crew ordering pizza in "Hungry." The pizza never arrives. It was sent to two Asian dudes who don't even speak English.
• Terry Jones licking Space Ghost in "Explode"!
  • The end of that episode. "Ghost Planet will now explode."
• The ending of "$20.01," which is meant to be a Shout-Out to the Stargate sequence from 2001: A Space Odyssey. Of course, at the end, Zorak becomes a space baby.

Zorak: Look at me - I'm a SPACE BABY!! YAHOOOOO!!

• Oh good Lord, the end of "Lovesick." Space Ghost is talking to a cow, which is funny enough, but when Zorak says the cow can't talk, the cow becomes Suddenly Voiced and lets loose a "The Reason You Suck" Speech to Space Ghost, which continues into the end credits, the episode title card, and even the Ghost Planet Industries Vanity Plate!
• Tansit's introductions for the show in the first half of season 4, usually concluding with him crying and regretting his life. Eventually, Space Ghost fires him, and what does he do? Cry.
• Chad Ghostal's cat growls and his attraction to Elvira. His Beatnik nature is so Narmy it's hilarious.
  • In "Switcheroo," he asks Susan Olsen if she's related to Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen. He then goes on about how freaky-looking they both are.
  • The dramatic stinger that plays when he first appears in "Hipster."
    • "(through gritted teeth) DAVID LEE ROTH!!"
    • At the end of that episode, Chad sings about how he had a fun time hosting. One of the lines in the song is "Hey, I even got to hurt someone!" Cut to Brak bandaged and bruised, whimpering.
• "Surprise," where Space Ghost is sent to get a package so Zorak, Moltar, and the Council of Doom can plan a surprise party for him. Zorak "hosts" the show... and every time a guest appears on the monitor, he blasts them with his raygun before they even have a chance to speak.
