Outer Space Astronauts!
This show is just funny. The animation style reminds me of the old Thunderbirds series, and the humor is irreverent as hell.

Anyone else catch this show yet?

2. My son
filled me in on this one a week ago. I'm still laughing at "Diplomatic Hat"

And thank you! I couldn't remember what the animation reminded me of, Thunderbirds, that's it!

3. The writing is really pretty funny.
It is being bashed on IMDB. I guess some believe science fiction needs to all be drama, but I love this show.

The episode I linked to has a tribble like creature called a "cuddlepuff" that knocks the crew out by giving them hickeys on their foreheads...LOL.

4. I saw an episode.

It was really funny. I know I quit all drugs so I'd quit going to jail. But if I could have just one back, it'd be pot so I could enjoy this show and others in the 'mellowly enhanced' state. I miss sitting in the dark and giggling at TV shows and dumb movies.

EDIT: And yes, the episode I saw was the one with the Diplomatic Hat.

9. The one hairy dude character is played by a woman.
They just put a mustache on her, and she speaks in that exaggerated deep voice. Funny as hell.

Undies was funny. Super undies!

6. It's on SyFy at night, but I didn't get it when...
I tried to watch a couple of times. It was more annoying than funny to me.

But, I'll give it another chance and see if I can get past the animation and see the humor.

7. The animation is a tad weird
The producer did all the filming in his basement. True grassroots.
