Movie Information
Starring: Rod
Country of origin: USA
First appearance: "The Dad Who Knew Too Little"


The Adventures of Spaceman Rod is a short movie, starring Rod, that Ned Flanders created at the Make Your Child a Movie Star kiosk, in Springfield Mall.

Plot[edit]

The video begins with a title screen. After the title screen, a generic white rocket ship is seen flying through space, while the narrator introduces the story as an "outerspace adventure starring you!". Inside is a very buff spaceman with a photo of Rod for his face. The narrator goes on to tell that "One day while flying your spaceship you saw a planet and decided to land." As "Rod" walks out of the spaceship he is greeted by a group of frog-like aliens with jetpacks. He introduces himself as "Commander Rod," with the name 'Rod' being supplied by Ned's voice. The aliens then welcome him and ask "Rod" what his hobbies are. "Rod" replies (with Ned doing the voice) that his hobbies include "being quiet during trips, clapping with songs, and diabetes." The aliens reply that that "sounds like fun," and decide to party. They all then start dancing and the movie ends.

History[edit]

The movie impressed Homer and he decided to get a similar gift for Lisa's birthday because the Turbo Diary that she had asked for was sold out. The movie Homer gave her made her angry, however, because it showed that Homer knew almost nothing about her. This prompted Homer to hire a detective to find out everything about Lisa so Homer would seem like a good parent.
