Off we go!, 9 July 1999
Author: anonymous from Chicago IL

As a kid, I got picked on a lot, and one of the best parts of coming home after a miserable day was sitting down to watch this show; I sat and laughed and felt good about myself for that half hour. I used to wish that there really WAS a Great Space Coaster to take me away. Now that I'm an adult, I feel badly that there isn't a show like this for the young kids; they're left to watch violent cartoons every afternoon, instead of learning something.
