Talk:Men into Space

Missing information
The Outer Limits article mentions that the USAF actually paid or subsidized this show. This is not included in the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 198.54.202.234 (talk • contribs) 20:09, 22 October 2005‎


 * Hmm. That seems unlikely. Several USAF officers and departments are in the list of credits as providing technical assistance, and some USAF film footage was provided to the producers. It's doubtful the government would actually provide cash support to a commercially supported series. One of the show's main sponsors was Lucky Strike cigarettes. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.250.143.12 (talk • contribs) 02:46, 10 March 2006‎

Unencyclopedic
I like this entry but it is a REVIEW of the series, not an encyclopedia entry. It is full of fairly goofy superlatives, that are in no way justified. It needs to be edited for neutrality and factual accuracy.Cokerwr 17:01, 24 June 2006‎ (UTC)

Religion
Episode 12, Christmas on the Moon has an astronaut who complains about Christmas and religion. This immediately strikes you as strange in a country that was deeply Christian when this show was made. Later when a fellow astronaut comes down with appendicitis we find this atheist has turned into a Christian and prays for a miracle which of course happens. All it needed was for the man to shout: "Praise the Lord!" to make this nonsense complete. (193.250.60.129 (talk) 11:04, 7 April 2009 (UTC))

Pop Culture: Midnight Cowboy
Regarding this addition to the "popular culture" section: "The first episode, "Moon Probe" (30 September 1959) is the video source of the scene that plays during the Jon Voight/Bob Balaban movie theater sequence in the film Midnight Cowboy (1969). The audio used over this film-within-a-film appears to be custom-looped by the Midnight Cowboy filmmakers. Neither the end credits of Midnight Cowboy nor the film's IMDb data gives credit to Men into Space. " While it is possible this may be accurate, we have a strict no original research policy. Per WP:PROVEIT, we'd need a reliable source that has come to this conclusion in order to add anything like this. - LuckyLouie (talk) 20:25, 19 June 2019 (UTC)
