Just sit right back and you'll hear a tale
A tale of a fateful trip
That started from this space port
Aboard a cargo ship

The mate was a mighty sailing woman
The Skipper brave and sure
Forty passengers set sail that day
For a three year tour, a three year tour

A meteor shower started getting rough
The tiny ship was tossed
If not for the courage of the fearless crew
The Hunter-Gratzner would be lost, the Hunter-Gratzner would be lost.

The ship crashed down on the surface of this
Uncharted desert rock
With Paris, the Skipper too
A millionaire, and his wife
A movie star
The Professor and MaryAnn
Here on Paris' Isle

So this is the tale of our castaways
They're here for a long, long time
They'll have to make the best of things
It's an uphill climb

The first mate and his Skipper, too
Will do their very best
To make the others comfortable
In their desert planet nest

No water, no lights, no motor cars (except for one sand cat)
Not a single luxury
Like Robinson Ca-rusoe
It's as primitive as can be

So join us here each week, my friends
You're sure to get a smile
From seven stranded castaways
Here on Paris' Isle.

Pilot Episode

(The surviving crew members of the Hunter-Gratzner are standing next to the crashed ship.)

PARIS: Gee, Skipper Fry. What do we do? We won't be able to fix the Hunter-Gratzner. That's a pretty big hole!

FRY: Just take it easy, Paris. We'll figure something out.

ZEKE HOWELL: What the bloody hell happened anyway?

FRY: Something knocked us off-lane. A meteor shower. A rogue comet.

SHAZZA HOWELL: Well I for one am thoroughly grateful. This beast wasn't meant to land like this, but I think you did well.

MARYANN: Yeah, thanks for saving our ponytails!

PROFESSOR JOHNS: We need to find shelter. I've observed that this planet has three suns.

MARYANN: Three suns?

RIDDICK (pulling on his Raybans): My agent is never going to believe this!

FRY: The Professor is right. We need to find shelter. I thought I saw a town of some sort when we were, uh, landing.

PROFESSOR JOHNS: Which way?

FRY: That way, towards sunrise.

(Our small group heads out, eventually coming to an old abandoned mining town. They quickly set up quarters in the buildings. So let's see; if it's PB, then they'd have to divide up as follows: The Professor and the movie star in one room; Little Maryann Jackie with Skipper Fry; Mr. and Mrs. Zeke Howell together and lucky Gilligan Paris gets his own room. Our small group meets in the dining hall after getting settled in.)

SHAZZA HOWELL: Well I can't say as I'm impressed with these accommodations.

ZEKE HOWELL: Quite right, Lovey.

FRY: They'll have to do for now. We have other things to worry about first.

PARIS: Like what?

FRY: No lights.

PROFESSOR JOHNS: And you do realize there's no water.

RIDDICK: And no cellular service. I won't be able to contact my agent. I have a big picture coming up that I was supposed to start shooting.
