Of course we remember. There just isn't enough bizarre Richard Benjamin
stuff floating around to throw any away. Unfortunately, that was before
any of us paid any attention to the credits.  But for those whose memories
need jogging:
      1) Classic title shots featuring something like Intergalactic
         Garbage Disposal Agency ship flying up to and munging trash
         bag
      2) Phicus, the plant/human. (bizarre pollination ritual:
                                    lie on back, put arms and legs in air,
                                    shake slightly while making whooping
                                    sound)
      3) Plasma creature eating lots of Pluto bits.

NOW do you remember?
