Season one reaches its apotheosis as Evil Tom goes head to head with Smilin’ Tom and Phyllis and Chip with the fate of the show (and, who knows, mankind?) in the balance. Sunshine Friends come to the rescue, but at what cost?
Chip takes us through the transition to a bold new season with a tour of the galaxy and the astonishingly inept extraterrestrial television to be found there, a friendly alien drops in to play Scrabble, and Interstellar Broadcasting shuts it all down for lack of certification.
As Season Two ramps up IB tries to take control but Chip shorts their circuit and lays out the new protocols. Sally Polkadot saves the fair, Phyllis tries to tell a joke, Professor Dave gets recycled and then the show runs out of fibrazene!

Sally saves the Land of Lollipops from club culture, Professor Dave packs his bags, there’s lunch on the Rugged Road, Dipswitch gets technical, and the Hellenbacks get the boot.
Chip gets a tan, Sally makes the papers, IB exposes a royal cult, the kids on the Rugged Road study Newton, and ... TWINS! Professor Dave and Smilin’ Tom both find their twins! What are the odds?
Chip gets hung up in the control room, IB exposes Phyllis, Sally becomes indivisible, the Rugged Road gets risky, and by the end pretty well everybody has gone off somewhere or other.
Chip and Dip host the opening, Phyllis is abducted again but Sally saves the day and the road is clear for ascension to the throne. With all the characters bailing the show trolls for new talent.
