SHOW NOTES

(00:20:49) Our discussion of “Robophobia and the Uncanny Valley” starts at around 00:44:20 on our podcast #88 (“Tell-Tale Trews”).

(00:40:20) The Bugs Bunny cartoon “People Are Bunny” can be found here.

(00:46:40) “Interceptor” was a British game show shown on the ITV network during the summer of 1989, with one last episode held back and shown on 1 January 1990 for a New Year special. The show was hosted by former tennis player and Treasure Hunt sky-runner Annabel Croft. The eponymous Interceptor was played by actor Sean O’Kane. Only eight episodes (one series) were made (after an un-aired test pilot). It was re-run on digital TV channel Challenge many times between 2001 and 2015. A public vote on UKGameshows in 2002 saw the series voted the UK’s 13th best game show.

(01:10:09) This audio clip is from “Over to Pam”, an episode of “Victoria Wood Presents” and can be seen here.

(01:19:48) “Subspace Rhapsody” is the ninth episode of the second season of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds. In this episode, Captain Christopher Pike and the crew of the USS Enterprise (NCC-1701) encounter a naturally occurring fold in subspace which, when interacted with, causes the entire crew to start singing their private thoughts and feelings. The episode is a musical, the first in the history of the Star Trek franchise.
