Art Show

"Art Show" is the fourteenth episode of Space Ghost Coast to Coast season three, and the thirty-second overall. It aired on December 18, 1996 on Cartoon Network. It was written by Evan Dorkin, Sarah Dyer, and Alan Laddie.

Space Ghost gets tired of the "artsy-fartsy" guests like Laurie Anderson and Stomp.

Memorable quotes
Birdman: Look, Tad, can I borrow some money? Space Ghost: Uh. Sorry, Harvey. No can do. Birdman: Please, Tad. My Hanna-Barbera royalties ran out.
