[edit] Brak Presents the Brak Show Starring Brak

"He is more than likely an homage to Desi Arnaz."? Considering he's got the identical ideosyncratic laugh, I think its safe to say the resemblance between the two characters is not accidental.

maybe, but it's gonna need some evidence. Gzuckier 15:31, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Zorak being called Arthur

I don't have any proof, but I think it's likelier that this is a reference to how Dr. Pearl Forrester from Mystery Science Theatre 3000 took to calling Crow "Arthur" after a confused fan addressed him by that name during a fan mail session.

If that is true, it might indicate some kind of link between the title of this series and the gag about the alien named "Brak" in the MST3K movie. 74.13.58.176 23:44, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

Isn't it from the way Ritchie's mom called The Fonz "Arthur" in the long-running "Happy Days" TV series? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.3.186.10 (talk) 04:59, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] What's with the episode listings?

I have Volume 1, it's 14 episodes. On here it says 14 episodes, Mr. Bawk Ba Gawk through Pepper, but on the episode listing it says that's 18 episodes. is there some kind of mistake?

The DVDs have a few episodes missing. --81.179.94.58 02:30, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] More trivia

Just saw this about possible connection with lyrics of a Clutch song - can anyone confirm this? -quoted: If you ever watch the brak show, in episode 22 "coma" thundercleese is in love with a vacuum cleaner and recites her a poem. That poem is 10001110101 over and over. It aired 10-12-2003. The clutch album came out in 2005. So I figure they may have just gotten it off that. 71.246.66.97 17:19, 24 June 2007 (UTC)
