NFT: Mystery Theater 3000 Revival Release Date

I wonder what movies they will ridicule this time. I can think of many in the last couple of years that were simply awful and made me want the last 2 hours of my life back after watching.

A ton are streamable on shoutfactorytv.com. They licensed the series (hence why they all vanished from Netflix a while back) and I find myself watching about an episode per week. Much better quality than what you find on YouTube, and a greater selection, FWIW.

But no Mike or Trace makes me a bit sad, as they were the two who made me laugh the most. I enjoyed Joel's more esoteric humor, but his riffs usually brought about more amused chuckles than laughs.

While some would say sacrilege, I favor the Mike years over the Joel years (not that I didn't like Joel, just like Mike better).

I don't think anyone believes that either one of them ISN'T funny. People just have their personal preferences. Some people prefer more abstract humor full of obscure literary and cultural references, and that's fine. For me, Mike's stuff may have been more simple but it just made me laugh more.

In any case, the new cast has some big shoes to fill. Hope they're up to it.

they air two back to back episodes of MST3K every Sunday night...however, it looks like they only have 8 or 10 episodes in their library, meaning after a month or so they run the same episodes again...

one they do have is Manos, Hands of Fate, possibly the worst movie ever made...

They have Manos, I Accuse My Parents, Eegah, Beginning of the End, Red Zone Cuba, and a few others and play them over and over.

Killer Shrews...

80 glorious episodes, all great quality. Including the all-time greats like Manos, Final Justice, Mitchell, Jack Frost, Killer Shrews, Final Sacrifice and tons more.
ShoutFactoryTV - 80 episodes - ( New Window )

'70s Hawaii in all its glory, plus a young Ian McShane as the bad guy. It's kind of fun how all of their Ian McShane jokes refer to him as Lovejoy since Deadwood was still a decade away.

Riding with Death, Track of the Moon Beast, and The Final Sacrifice. I could watch those on a loop all day.

I'm the "Mike"camp, but my favorite person on the show overall was the 2nd Crow, Bill Corbett.

For such a fun/goofy show, there seems to be a lot of bad blood (Joel vs Mike, Joel vs Jim Mallon).

They just did the live MST reunion show together last summer. Mike chose to continue on with RiffTrax rather than writing for the new MST. I don't think Mike and Joel are best friends or anything, but I think the idea of a feud between them is inaccurate.

Jim Mallon, on the other hand, is a whole different story.

for Tom Servo. There were two different hosts and two different Crows, but Kevin Murphy voiced Servo for all but the first season (which not many people have ever seen anyway).

..and TV's Frank was totally correct in his commentary in the official MST3K episode guide...nothing happens in this movie. It's all stock footage of planes taking off and landing and refueling and taking off again and landing and refueling all to completly innappropriate music.
It's a chore to get through the entire thing so far lol

Also rewatched Mitchell last weekend. Good ol Joe Don Baker, that fat slob...

Starfighters is great, because it is - as you correctly said - really about nothing. But we did get the great "poopy suit" song from that one.
