Deep Space Beaver

Many of you will remember the stupid, pointless absurd, farce but ultimately genuinely quite hilarious (well, me and Alex thought so) Starship Beaverprise, which was written when we were young and stupid and our lives were a pointless absurd farce (obviously) but many people don't like to remember Deep Space Beaver, which followed on from that but was set 1000 years later, maybe you didn't like the time travel stuff we made needlessly complex...Maybe you just didn't care. Anyway I just think it's funny when you look back at just how [insert word here that sums up what you thought of it] it was, really...Did we write this. Interestingly though I have had this joke in my head for about 2 years from episode 4 of DSB which I never finished, but upon re-reading this episode on my computer I realized my brain had replaced the actual joke from it that I had written then (3 years ago?) with a better, much cleverer joke that actually made more sense. This got me thinking, what would it actually be like now if we wrote it, which of course will not happen. But I may end up publishing a few things that never made it online, in all there lo-fi unfinished comedy glory. My opinion on what killed off this once legendary "franchise"? That final episode of SB, where we tried to do a 24 part episode set over 24 hours just like in 24, we almost died writing it and only managed like 13 hours.

Ha! Yeah we are legends...or something! I still have a vision to finish the final 11 hours of the final episode! Remember the ultimate decision we made? Do two more series or do the entire final series as a 24 rip-off! We opted for the two series with a final episode as a 24 rip-off! We were hard working fools back then.
