The Angry Red Planet opens with a unique version of the American International logo.
Jeff MarkinHOST
I believe this is the only time this logo was used.
Rob LloydHOST
No Corby this season.
Kevin YankHOST
And it was the first time that the actor who played Lurch on The Addams Family, Ted Cassidy at the time, was cast as a looming presence in Star Trek.
Kevin YankHOST
In this, he played Ruck, a huge kind of... towering android of ancient origins that Roger Corby has found on the planet X03.
Kevin YankHOST
And he only has faint memories of the ancient ones that built him and his kind.
Kevin YankHOST
Oh.
Kevin YankHOST
And yeah, there are knockdown, drag out.
Kevin YankHOST
More than once, Ted Cassidy lifts William Shatner, not a stuntman, lifts William Shatner over his head.
Kevin YankHOST
And then it cuts to a stuntman being thrown across the room.
Jeff McIntoshHOST
Oh no. No. absolutely not the same the same thing with roger moore when he was on british tv as the saint and then they did a saint movie a couple of decades ago with val kilmer as the saint no you know some things you you just need to leave them where they belong yeah Nobody talks about the new Addams Family.
Jeff McIntoshHOST
They only talk about the original with Carolyn Jones and Ted Cassidy and all the rest.
Ron DonahueHOST
Yeah, I guess Wednesday is technically not the Addams Family because it's just a character, an offshoot from the original story, which i'll give them props on wednesday it has been pretty awesome i'll give them that but it's it's not they're not trying to you know make the original show you know what i mean is they took from it and made a whole different story from it which i can respect that so again that being said i hope i hope this um it's coming out next year i don't have the exact date but it's coming out 2027 and
Jeff McIntoshHOST

X7HOST
And our final episode, the homing device.
X7HOST
And it's not what you think it is, but there is true mortal enemy, arch enemy, Metallus, voiced by Ted Cassidy.
X7HOST
The wonderful Ted Cassidy, whom I'm a huge fan of, really enjoy his son's page on Facebook.
X7HOST
I wish that I'd have thought to write him a letter.
X7HOST
I wish that about a lot of things in this day and age.
Diabolu FrankHOST
I can't say for certain if it was there or on 1978's challenge of the super friends cartoon on ABC television, or I was first exposed to the fiend.
Diabolu FrankHOST
Brainiac was voiced by Ted Cassidy and then Stanley Ralph Ross.
Diabolu FrankHOST
And he's also the, one of the things I would look at and go, why don't we have that on the George Reeves show? Why is it always a guy in a suit with a revolver? Why can't it ever be Brainiac? So I was kind of spoiled from the cartoon.
Diabolu FrankHOST
I was like, I wanted more stories about guys like Brainiac.
Farrar HudkinsGUEST
