Super Adventure Team is an American comedy series shown on the cable television network MTV in 1998. The show is a superhero satire series using puppetry.

History[edit]

The show's co-creators, Rob Cohen and Dana Gould, met when writing for The Ben Stiller Show. The show debuted in July 1998 with a six-episode run.[2]

The marionettes were voiced by comedians popular at the time โ€” using aliases:

  • Talia Criswell was played by Karen Kilgariff โ€” stage name Barbara St. Bill
  • Benton Criswell was played by Paul F. Tompkins โ€” stage name Francis Mt. Pleasant
  • Chief Engineer Head was played by creator Dana Gould[3] โ€” stage name Benjamin Venom
  • Major Landon West was played by Daran Norris โ€” stage name James Penrod
  • Colonel Buck Murdock was played by Wally Wingert โ€” stage name Grant W. Wyllie

Keith Marder of the Los Angeles Daily News gave the show a positive review, saying that the use of puppetry gave the show an original look. He also thought that the show's comedy had the potential to make it a cult classic.[4]
