It especially reminds me of the Grebulons from the final^H^H^H^H^Hfifth book in the series, whose ships computer was damaged in transit, corrupting the mission directive and the memories of the crew. All they could figure out was that they should monitor the earth from a safe distance, so they set up a base on the tenth planet Rupert and watched earth TV all day.

- drewzero1 5y agoYes, the fifth book in the increasingly inaccurately-named Hitchhiker's Guide Trilogy. The 'final' was meant as a sly dig at Eoin Colfer's addition to the series, "And Another Thing", which attempted to wrap up the story after Adams' death. I read it shortly after release and didn't give it a fair chance.
