Yeah, the greenscreen thing is bugging me too. We know they have a Moon 13 set, we see it in the theme song and at the end when they are putting the cylinders in the holes at the end of the episodes. But the lack of set for Kinga and Max to interact with is not helping.

Um I think you're mistaken. Kinga and Max are always on a real set. They don't interact with it much because it's not very deep, but it's not green screen.

You're probably right.  Still, there are times when it does look like a green screen, particularly during the song (except for the part where Max does his solo bit and is touching a set wall).  Maybe it's just the straight-on camera positioning.

Whydonttheylook was saying that the guest stars like Seinfeld and NPH are on a green screen, which is probably true. But that's just because it would be too expensive to schedule time for them to come to the set. Instead they can send a green screen and a small crew to wherever they are for cheap.  That's just a guess, but it's an educated one.

Understandable, certainly.  But still (minorly) bugs me.  :P

(Now I want a screencap from Wild Rebels that I can caption with "that greenscreen bugs meee... it really bugs meeeeeee!")

This was a really funny ep. The riffing was well-timed in delivery and there were some great riffs. So much better than the first three eps. Didn't seem too fast at all.
...
I really liked this one!

Agreed!

One small complaint:

Blasé

when they were digging through the snow "we hit disco floor!"  HAHAHAHA

I have to say I was kind of impressed by Robert Forster's casual disco dancing while talking.  Very smooth.

Watching this one again. I really like the riffing here (even though it does occasionally suffer from rushed delivery). Disaster movies like this lend themselves to riffing so well.

Even better the second time around!

So...this was all because God wanted that old lady dead, then. And He had to try several times to do it, killing a whole lot of other people to.

No joke. I have to assume the ambulance driver must have had a stroke. That's the only explanation for why a professional driver, used to driving on ice, clear of the avalanche, with one patient, currently stable, would suddenly forget all of that and drive off a bridge.

This is like surviving D-Day, only to be killed by a meteor.
