According to the show's storyline, as part of an experiment to see how bad movies affected a person's mind, mad scientists Dr. Clayton Forrester and Dr. Laurence Erhardt (aka "The Mads") kidnapped Robinson, placed him on the Satellite of Love, and shot him into space. In order to keep from going mad himself, Robinson built his robot friends from parts of the spacecraft — namely the controls used to begin and end the movie. Eventually, Gypsy found an escape pod in a box of hamdingers and propelled Joel into it, returning him to Earth. In response, the Mads kidnapped Mike Nelson and sent him up to the Satellite of Love to take Robinson's place.

In response, the Mads kidnapped Mike Nelson and sent him up to the Satellite of Love to take Robinson's place. At the end of season 10, the Satellite was deorbited and crash-landed near Milwaukee, Wisconsin. In the unaired pilot, series creator Joel Hodgson (not yet using his character name "Joel Robinson") claimed to have designed the Satellite of Love himself. This was changed by the first aired episode to the more familiar storyline. The Satellite of Love during the KTMA era was also noticebly different than the version shown during the show's official run, built on a very low budget and not featuring the somewhat iconic "doggy-bone" shape.
