Screen venture and stars Neil Casey, Creator/EugeneCordero, Creator/ConorLeslie, Creator/BessRous, Creator/KaranSoni, and Creator/MilanaVayntrub alongside ''Series/MysteryScienceTheater3000'' alumni Trace Beaulieu and Creator/JoelHodgson.

* DearJohnLetter: Tina, after spending the first couple of episodes pining desperately for her boyfriend, Ted, gets a prerecorded message from him breaking things off. He programmed the ship's computer to wait a week before giving it to her so she would believe, at least for a little while, that someone in the universe loved her. What a guy!

* FailedASpotCheck: [[spoiler:Chad]] is clearly the alien infiltrator because he's the only crew member not seen on the ''Cruiser'' until after it's sucked into the new universe and not manipulated by the alien presence in the first episode. Justified from the perspective of the crew, however, as he is capable of altering their memories.

* ActorAllusion:
** Trace Beaulieu's character A.R.T. is one to his role as Crow T. Robot on ''[[Series/MysteryScienceTheater3000 MST3K]]''--the character ended up with the FanNickname "Art" due to a convoluted series of events, and the nickname ultimately ended up on the show.
** Zalien and Art are pretty much Joel and Crow with the serial numbers filed off. "First Contact" even has A.R.T. watching a recording of Stewart's dream and riffing on it.


Added DiffLines:

* MsFanservice: Natasha's first scene consists of her asking Stewart if her boobs and butt are the acceptable size and she is frequently seen in flattering outfits that show a fair amount of skin. Tina wears a sexy dress in two episodes.
