The innerspace drinking game
Humans, there are two things you've invented that I truly enjoy. Booze, and geek news. I drink every day, and I watched InnerSpace every day. Clearly I was going to have to eventually combine the two with the simple goal of getting you so hammered in less than twenty two minutes you can't see straight. Personally, I recommend Jaegerbombs for this. I mean sure, that’s because I recommend Jaegerbombs for everything, but what matters is that my drinking game will have you passed out on your couch faster than you can say "See you in the future!"
Here's the offical Youtube Playlist that Space Channel somehow still hasn't deleted. You'll be able to apply a few of the rules with this (Jump to "The Reports"). Also, here's the one full episode I still have saved. Not sure if linking to it will work, but let's find out!
General
The Intro
Show Open/Back from Break or Story
One drink for each reference to Teddy Wilson’s former partner, Sam Maggs (reference by name not required. “My partner” is acceptable)
One drink if Morgan did something out of character the previous evening. If she was out abnormally late, take one drink per hour out past her usual bed time (three drink minimum). Two drinks if she attended a party. If alcohol was involved in her evening, raise your glass in Morgan’s honor, then drain it.
One drink per movie viewed over the previous weekend. Take an additional drink if said movie was previously discussed on InnerSpace
If a host announces their engagement on air, raise your glass in a toast, then drain it.

General
- One drink for any host who participates live "via satellite" (using the term loosely here Ajay!)
- One drink per guest host. Take an additional drink if the guest host is not there to promote something or if the guest host is Ben Mulroney
- Take a drink if anyone other than Ajay Fry is sitting in the camera-right chair. Take two drinks if it’s a guest host.
- If Ajay has a beard on camera, immediately shout “FRY FUR!” and take a drink.
- One drink per blooper that is not removed in editing. Since I’m pretty sure Teddy tries to get these in, take an extra drink for a Morgan or Ajay blooper.
- If Morgan is the only regular host, take a drink and refer to the show as “HoffSpace” for the remainder of the evening.
- If a host’s birthday is mentioned on air, raise your glass and say “Happy Birthday,” then take a drink. Two drinks if a cake shows up at any point.
- If I (Adi the Adipose) am specifically mentioned on air, YOU WIN! What do you win? ANOTHER DRINK!
The Intro

- Two drinks for any combination of the three hosts.
- Two drinks for an InnerSpace Special (Then immediately jump to the “InnerSpace Specials” section)

Fry v Hoffman:
For any segment involving both Ajay & Morgan, the following rules apply:
- Take a drink for fake surprise over the other host’s presence

- One drink if the rant decries Astrology/Paranormal phenomena, two drinks if Morgan is co-hosting (have a pitcher handy. At this point Morgan’s three drink rant minimum will commence)
- If Ajay uses the rant to highlight the struggle of any minority group, raise a toast in his honor and drain your glass
Sign Off (If you’re still conscious)
- One drink per story mentioned for the next day's show.
- Take a drink if “See you in the future!” is said by either Morgan or Teddy
- One drink if Teddy attempts to cram in one last terrible joke, one more drink if it gets a laugh.

- If there’s no extra footage, congratulate yourself for remaining conscious. You should probably go to bed now.
- Take one drink for show bloopers, two for extra conversation footage.
- One sip per attempted Teddy Wilson impersonation or sound effect
- One drink if Ajay is shown to have been wrong about something.
InnerSpace Specials
- If previously unaired: take one drink if the special promotes a new TV show or film, two drinks for a “Best of [Insert Host Name here]” or three for coverage of an event (ie. San Diego Comic Con) then follow the rules listed above under “The Reports”.
- If previously aired: If the special is a repeat, you must instead take one drink for each time you have already watched the special. For example, I have seen every “InnerSpace: The Best of Morgan Hoffman” ever aired. I therefore have a ten drink minimum. If your previous viewings number exceeds five, regular drinking rules are at your discretion. I’m not trying to kill anyone here.
Note: These are my rules. Additions, subtraction, and revisions are totally at my discretion! Unless you invent house rules. You should totally invent house rules and send them to me!
