Talk:. . . OF THE FUTURE!!!

I could've sworn this was used pre-"Time Chasers", but I'm probably high. -Zee

I had thought the same thing, but don't have anything to back it up. I've a sneaking suspicion it was used at least once in "Overdrawn At The Memory Bank" -- though it was more well known from "Chasers." Haven't watched 'Overdrawn' in ages, so its a good excuse to pop it in and find out :-)GlitterRock 13:56, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

It was used in OATMB ("UPS fashions of the FUTURE!!!" among others), but I think this might be even older than MST3K. I seem to recall this was a phrase used often in those old industrial and "educational" shorts ("Design for Dreaming," for example) where they talked about how we'd all have push-button kitchens and flying cars and robot maids and how great everything was going to be, as long as you were white and rich. --TheDiva 14:57, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

Diva's right. In the first half-hour of 'Overdrawn' there was the UPS-mention and "S.A.T. Farms... OF THE FUTURE!" (with the same emphasis put on "of the future" as was used in 'Time Chasers" GlitterRock 15:50, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

But the "Overdrawn at the Memory Bank" episode came after "Time Chasers". Can anyone find a Pre-"Time Chasers" example?-Zee

HEYYYY you're right! I was thinking that "Chasers" was shown in MST's 2nd Sci Fi season; I'd already remembered that "Overdrawn" was the 1st season's finale. I cede the reference to "Chasers" :-) GlitterRock 17:34, 2 June 2006 (UTC)
