I remember the one episode though. I called it &#8220;Pig&#8217;s Dream.&#8221; I have no idea what the real title was. They end up in a dimension where someone released a biological\/chemical weapon wiping out almost all males, except for in Australia, making Australia a super power. The guys were pressed into service breeding a new generation. It&#8217;s hard to escape the whole &#8220;master race&#8221; concept, but I think they gave it the usual glazed doughnut treatment the show was famous for. By the end of the episode the guys were tired of putting out 4+ times per day every day and having to drink all of these nasty tasting protein drinks to keep their stamina up. They concoct a plan to escape the castle (or whatever it was) where &#8220;perfect&#8221; women constantly wanted sex from them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Just in time for mandatory stay at home Coronavirus lock downs, Comet TV spends some bucks and begins airing some beloved shows from the past.
