Space Corn rather than Race. I'm sorry to say that I've even stopped learning the names of episodes because the lame and bad just kind of all run together after a while.

Space Race had potential, though I was gritting my teeth to watch them take an opportunity to show something new to us and cool about Sam and turn it into being about a race of aliens I cared nothing about and then overlaid it with the idiotic sports show cliche. It was obvious from the amount of time they spent lovingly crafting the sports talk and ads and scrolling language that if something can hold their ADD-addled brains in fascination long enough, that they could engage in flights of creativity. Which brought me back to gritting my teeth in annoyance of the astoundingly stupid Sam-the-pilot cum second banana in a Space Race. I suppose her subsequent melting into the stereotyped female role shouldn't have surprised me as much. *sigh*

Her love of speed and technology and explosives make sense for the hotshot pilot/scientist her character is supposed to be. On the weeks they remember she isn't just a pin up.
