DESCRIPTION:
(from G4's press release, September 2008) G4 will bring viewers Spaceballs Sunday on September 21 with a special presentation of MGM's 1987 cult classic feature film, followed by two hours of all new, never-before-seen chapters of "Mel Brooks' Spaceballs: The Animated Series." A rollicking parody of popular science-fiction and action films, "Spaceballs" stands as Brooks' homage to genre films in which the master of comedy skewers some of filmdom's biggest blockbusters. A collaboration from MGM, Berliner Film Companie and G4, "Mel Brooks' Spaceballs: The Animated Series" picks up where the cult classic feature film left off, delivering hilarious parodies of today's pop culture. Executive Producer and Co-Creator Mel Brooks reprises his roles as Planet Spaceballs' nefarious President Skroob and Yogurt, Daphne Zuniga returns to voice the lovely Princess Vespa, and Joan Rivers is back as the voice of Dot Matrix. Spaceballs Sunday takes place Sunday, September 21 beginning at 3 pm ET/PT, with the presentation of the feature film, followed by all new chapters of "Mel Brooks' Spaceballs: The Animated Series" at 5 pm ET/PT, only on G4. |
