Space Chickens - rough draft of the intro

Space Theme Intro

(Captain Nugget voice over while we see a vast empty space shot. Star Treky music in the background)

Nugget
Space. It’s all around us.. These are the voyages of the Chicken Ship Drumstick. It’s multiple week mission is to explore silly places, to seek out new peanut butter and jelly recipes and find a good pillow – to boldly go where no chicken has gone before

(By this time we see the outside of the chicken ship drumstick…it looks like a frozen chicken…the front wings actually being the wings for the space ship and the legs being the rocket engines. It is slowly moving towards us staring from the left of the screen and moving right…gradually getting closer to us)

(Music gets interrupted… screeching sound like the needle is being pulled off the record)

Narky voice over
What are you talking about ? We’ve got a map and list of things to do!

Captain Nugger voice over
Would you be quiet I’m trying to do the intro!

Narky
Sorry.

(music starts in again)
Nugget
Anyway. Where was I? Oh yes…our multiple week journey

(screeching halt…again)
Narky
Are we there yet!

Nugget
NO!

Narky
Sorry

(music starts…again)
Nugget
Anyway. We space voyagers. We adventurers of the unknown .We shall discover the space before us! We ….chickens! We…chickens of space!

Narky
Chickens of space? That’s not very dramatic

Nugget
How about…(clearing throat)…Space chickens!

(Theme music takes over…coming to full life as we zoom into the “bridge” of the ship as we see Nugget and Narky for the first time as they blankly staring back at the camera.. Behind them a little bit is a small chicken cadet.)

A bunch of video screens are behind them and we zoom into one and we see astronaut paige…pan to another screen and there are some aliens…we go from screen to screen taking from the different week’s characters (and seeing their names) before we go back to the chickens…cadet lets the Nugget and Narky know that the camera is on then and Captain Nugget…belts out:

Nugget
Space chickens!
