6. As others have said here, this IS the greatest opening for a cartoon, EV-ER. The editing of scenes from various episodes and the music is beyond anything else to come to Saturday morning, or television in general. It does appear that the very start is the same as the opening for 'The Jetsons', though much shorter. The opening in 'The Jetsons' continues as the viewer drills through space to finally have the planet Earth come into view. Also, the 7-second scene from 0:20 - 0:27 where the saucer ejects from the belly and zooms in to blow up the rocket? That was test animation done for the series. You will never see this is ANY episode of 'Space Ghost' but it makes for one of the most gripping scenes of any cartoon! I had the pleasure of meeting Bill Hanna in Sept 1991 and he was a huge fan of the Superheroes that they created. He said that he hoped that the whole Superhero thing would come full circle and they would somehow be 'rebooted'. Whether he meant as animation or live action, I don't know. It does seem that with the MARVEL characters getting their time on the BIG screen that H-B's characters could do the same. 'Space Ghost' would be the perfect fit! C'mon Warner Bros. (now owner of Hanna-Barbera), bring on SPACE GHOST!
7. I'm a Gma to a 16 yo Gd.. and she agrees neither Sprout or Cartoon Channel cannot top my 60's Childhood faves
8. "SPAAAAAACE JEWS"
9. Aaaaah,the memories.Batman(in his other other identity) in space with Beppo the supermonkey,which he stole from Superman:-)Oh yes,and there´s Robin and Batgirl too,with other aliases.But,who cares?Spaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaace Ghost! :-)Only one thing Batman doesn´t have,Zorak!He might eat Joker for lunch.That´s for sure.God,this would be a great crossover-Batman v Space Ghost:Dawn of Zorak.What do u think?:-)
10. Man, cartoons from the 60's were BAD-ASS. I remember this, Johnny Quest, Hercules and Spider-Man. Always actions packed with (usually) interesting plots, and even a little bit edgy.
11. I always wanted his power bands as a kid after watching Space Ghost.
12. I loved this cartoon as a kid. I always simulated the explosions from here.
13. Can't believe this year makes it 50 years old.
    
14. Ihr müsst natürlich n Intro neu sprechen für Spacey. Er ist einfach drin verostet. Und wurde gesucht. Man schickt ihn einfach eine Möglichkeit zu entfliehen. Er kehrt zurück. Es darf natürlich keiner wissen. Ist nämlich besser so. Lieber ein bisschen rumalbern.
    
    Verdammter Schnipfen. Der kann schon auf das denken gehen. Inkognito Tarnung. Und nicht auffindbar. Iwo in eine Zentrale. Ein Job halt. Das geht immer. Und alle freuen sich. Mehr Knete und mehr Anerkennung. Wo es sicher ist. Und offiziell. Denn ohne die Firma geht nichts.
15. I watch this intro way too much, it's the video I watch when I wanna get bad videos out of my mind (I might have actually commented on this video before, I'm not sure).
    
    Space Ghost is probably my favorite superhero ever, right up there with guys like Superman, Batman, Spiderman, etc.  I think it's just the way the cartoon was made, that and other great Hanna Barbera hits from when my dad was a kid (He was a fan before me).  This is the real Space Ghost, not that stupid talk show version that drove me and my dad up the wall.
    
    One of the coolest things ever is when Space Ghost, out of nowhere, showed up in Batman: Brave and the Bold.  You should have seen me, it was one of the coolest things ever.  It made me think, "Wow, this could be a new series, a new Space Ghost series".  Sadly, hasn't happened yet, oh well.  At least DC Comics is doing something with him recently, him and other Hanna Barbera characters.
    
    One final note...RIP Gary Owen, you were one of the greats.  Thanks for bringing Space Ghost to life!!!
16. The coolest theme ever!
