The site's critics consensus reads: "An all-star cast and blockbuster-worthy special effects aren't enough to keep Space Force's uneven blend of earnestness and satire from spinning quickly out of comedic orbit." On Metacritic, it has a weighted average score of 49 out of 100, based on 40 critics, indicating "mixed or average reviews". Richard Roeper of the Chicago Sun-Times praised Carell, for his "impeccable comedic timing and his uncanny ability to play yet another character who's often an insufferable buffoon with not a speck of…

    Donald Trump's latest Truth Social posts show him commanding a Space Force from orbit, walking alongside a handcuffed alien, and pressing a red button captioned "Target destroyed." This is what the president is doing as Americans pay more for gas and groceries and suffer through the war in Iran.

    UFO was a strange and fascinating 1970s British Sci-Fi series. A secret NATO Space Force of hard-drinking sex-starved men & women struggle to thwart a mysterious alien invasion. Imagine a cross between Star Trek, Thunderbirds, James Bond, Mad Men, and The X-Files, but with a really horny vibe.

    Chapter II splash from Challengers Of The Unknown no. 4 (Nov 1958) by Jack Kirby with Wally Wood. Love all the historical details in this one. Gorgeous! Concurrent with their work on this series, Kirby and Wood were also producing a newspaper strip, Sky Masters of the Space Force.

    S2 of Space Force is being repeated as of today on 4 Extra. It's Journey into Space with the serial numbers filed off, this run has some very peculiar ideas regarding Egyptology and it all feels very off kilter... but thanks to epic use of film music, it's unlikely you'll hear it any other way.
