Think I saw this show - disembodied brain sound familiar?
The concept's familiar, but that was a while ago.
One bit from the show I'm thinking of involved the main characters talking to a red brain in a plexiglass globe full of water or something. It always stuck in my mind because my grandmother's roast beef often turned out the same bright red color (great woman, but an abominable cook. On the bright side, as a result my dad grew up able to eat just about anything).
Anyway, bright red talking brain in a clear globe. Sound familiar to anyone?
No, no - Pillage first, then burn! Stupid Vikings...
