The Jet Benny Show (1986)

The story

Opening At the start of the film, we see a black-and-white television show, which appears to be The Jack Benny Program, although that name is never used. The host (Steve Norman) welcomes his special guest (Polly MacIntyre), and introduces the sketch for the evening (which is the body of the film, and in color). The “sketch” Jet Benny (Norman), a self-proclaimed “intergalactic soldier of fortune,” is traveling through space in his ship — the Maxwell, piloted by the android Rochester (Kevin Dees) — when the vessel loses power and crashes down on an unfamiliar planet.
