I'm sure we all know about these videos here and retsupurae, but I'm curious to know more about the actual TV show that aired in Maryland, Flights Of Fantasy.

Does anyone know where to find full episodes? Anymore info on the show like what channel it aired on? Dates? etc.

We can share favorite clips too, I'm just hoping to get more info about FoF and the enigmatic George Wood.

I never understood why exactly it was on retsupurae. Wasn't the guy just reading old game reviews? Thank goodness SA is dead and sunk all those clowns with it.

George Wood needs to do new episodes when Hillary wins the election.

It was a public access TV show that aired from 94 to maybe late 90s? Not sure. The Host George Wood was reviewing and previwing games out at the time. What makes it funny or cringe worthy, is how out of touch Wood is with gaming and how he didn't understand what he was reviewing and mocking viewers over liking certain games. IIRC he called anyone who like Tactics a 'lunatic' or something, because the game is menu driven.

"who wants to see my derriere" is the most mind boggling thing i have EVER seen

Im guessing they got George to say a bunch of words so people could use his sound clips to make reviews.

Pretty much every review is
>This game is great
>Spends 5 mins saying only negative things
>This game is a must buy!

Also the episode where he recommended that Lara Croft should have breast cancer in the sequel to Tomb Raider so there would be more drama.

He always gave off a creepy vibe. In every one of his Tomb Raider reviews, he constantly bashes Lara for having big tits, and makes corny fake boobs jokes. One segment he shows a chick in heels steeping on a barbie doll head after saying, "this is what women should do when someone tells them how to look" or something like that.

Old George was def trying to win over those liberal college girls back in the clinton years *wink* *wink*
