The countdown to the Moonbase 8 finale begins in this exclusive clip
They might not ever make it to the moon, but the would-be astronauts of Moonbase 8 have certainly ignited the office comedy of this Showtime series. Cap (John C. Reilly), Rook (Tim Heidecker), and Skip (Fred Armisen) are more earnest and likable than the crew of Space Force (minus one Space Frasier), though, as we’ve seen throughout season one, just as woefully underprepared for space exploration. The Moonbase 8 team has survived the death of a crew member, fever-induced paranoia, and a wave of pity from the upstarts at SpaceX. They’ve watched their more qualified colleagues move on to mission status, while taking comfort in canned bagels and their shared delusion. Cap, Rook, and Skip will probably never get the order from NASA, but maybe they’ll find some redemption in managing not to die in the desert.
