Space Cadets ended on September 16, 1997, on Channel 4. The show was a science-fiction comedy series that aired during the summer of 1997. It ran for a single season consisting of ten episodes, each approximately 30 minutes long. The series concluded its run after its final episode aired in September 1997, and there are no plans for a revival or continuation at this time.

Each episode featured the captains and their guests competing in science-fiction themed challenges, such as trivia and prop guessing, designed to test their knowledge of the genre. The show was monitored by a supercomputer named "Hal," adding a humorous, sci-fi element to the game format. It was a short-lived program that combined comedy with science-fiction themes, offering viewers a lighthearted look at space adventures.
The cast included Greg Proops as the High Commander, with Bill Bailey and Craig Charles as the Space Captains.
