Old things youngins might like to know

I don't know if I would welcome them. It would suck to be an ingredient in some alien recipe. But if they wanted us as pets that might not be so bad. My dog has a pretty sweet life. Eating, sleeping and playing. Though I don't know if guys would like being pets. It depends on weather or not the aliens neutered them.

Ah yes. Look up the old Twilight Zone episode, To Serve Man.

There was also a Star Trek episode, I believe, where some of them had been captured and put into a domestic habitat to be observed like zoo animals. They didn't like it much...

Aha, the "Cookbook" To Serve Man.  And the Star Trek episode was called a couple of things, one of which was the cage and the buttheads were in charge.

Well... spoiler alert for To Serve Man.

The Cage was actually the very first Star Trek TOS episode filmed by Roddenberry, with a different cast. It wasn't aired until later, and was rolled into an episode with the cast we all know. I could swear there was a different one, possibly one of the Star Trek: Enterprise episodes with a different spin on it.

The Cage aired as a pilot with different cast. It was thrown back with a recast requirement. Then "Where No Man Has Gone Before" was produced (aired 3rd)

The Cage Pilot was reworked into a Two-Parter "The Menagerie"

I'm pretty sure there was several Star Trek episodes with that general plot.

I remember watching that Twilight Zone episode, "To serve man", one of the few that I do remember so clearly. It first aired in 1962.

My first ride on a motor bike was a thing that I built up after stealing the motor off of our lawn mower. I cobbled something together with a couple of wheels and a centrifugal clutch. Made it three blocks before I realized that I should have added brakes of some kind; crashed into a neighbors car.....that one cost me some pain in more ways than one.

Yeah, being on display in an alien zoo would suck. But it would still be better than being served as Julia Tar Tar or being evaporated with a heat ray or having my blood sprayed as fertilizer. Ewww. I saw a sci-fi show a long time ago in which aliens had been watching us and they noticed how we fawn over and pamper our dogs and they thought the dogs were the dominant species on earth and humans were just their servants. I can see how aliens might think that. Lol

Hahaha, My brother and I called them the buttheads also.

There's an episode of the Orville where there's a zoo.

I saw that one. I like the Orville.

Michael Sacks seemed to enjoy the alien zoo arrangement in "Slaughterhouse Five" when his cell mate was Valerie Perrine...

Great film, based on the book by Kurt Vonnegut, and highly recommended!!!!

I tried to link a trailer from YouTube but it didn't come through!!! 😀

Here's a terrifying one:


That frickin' clown.

[big kim]

Clowns spook me. Long before It, as a kid growing up in the 50s & 60s I found clowns sinister. Needless to say I had an annual trip to the circus! Just been watching the scary clowns in the Nightwish Storytime video
