This is the first episode I ever saw. Watched on Google Video, as it was before I found this website and put it on my hotbar.

I've never a few minutes in total of season 0 and 1 put together, and I've seen every episode from season 2 through the last season at least like ten times, others I'm afraid to know how many times I've seen. No Mike and no script, no good. Plus Josh Weinstein's Servo voice is barely audible in the theater. He mumbles everything. I'm sure they wanted someone with a big voice to take over for that reason, and Kevin Murphy definitely has a big voice.

Never been a fan of seasons one or zero. I have to make my own riffs to survive the movies. Thee are just so many empty pauses in this movie that go unriffed...
so weird.... I just finished season zero and theres such an abrupt change between the set design and host segments and the more familiar robot design. im all discombobulated!!!!! :(
I loveee this one <3

At about 0:21:00 -- Price & Pride in their film debut!
(I don't know if there was ever a "Price & Pride" joke on the show. It was more an East Coast thing...)
When I was a kid they showed this kind ofcrap every Saturday afternoon, without the funny, as if it were actually worth watching on its own merits. Now I know they were experimenting with our young brains.

Its so fun and interesting to watch the whole series, end on Diabolik, and then immediately start over (discounting the KTMA series) - the end of Diabolik (*spoiler alert*) is Mike and the bots watching The Crawling Eye - Its circular and just feels right - I watch that tiny tidbit and think "I should watch that episode" and BAM! Back to the beginning I go! I'M TRAPPED IN AN INFINITE LOOP! And I'm ok with that :)
At 44:49 Crow says, "Two men will reach the Senate..." and gets 'shushed' by Joel. Watch Crow's head turn. He's really not happy! A few seasons later that would evolve into an out of character 'dickweed', as they got more comfirtable with the boundaries, don't you think?

That was pretty funny. I am glad that I finally found this site. Favorite line, "Joel, you've examined the plot much more thoroughly than the writers." :D

I only discovered this show in the last few seasons when it was on SYFY and I used to tape it (back when people had VCRs) I still have the few episodes but am so glad I found this site with all the episodes!!!

It's strange coming back to this after watching all the episodes on this site and seeing how rough around the edges the show was.
I love Joel!

You know you're doing something wrong if the elusive alien vulnerability that you take the whole movie to discover is "Of course! We'll bombard them with napalm!"
John Carpenter stated that this film was the inspiration for his film, "The Fog". "The Crawling Eye" had been a TV serial before becoming a film, Laurence Payne and Stuart Saunders reprise their roles from the serial. In the original production, the creatures were called "Ixodes".
