Title: In the not-too-distant future.....
Post by: M4 on December 29, 2002, 01:00:50 AM: Way down in Deep 13,
Dr. Forrester and TV\'s Frank
Were hatching an evil scheme.
They hired a temp by the name of Mike,
Just a regular joe they didn\'t like.
Their experiment needed a good test case,
So they conked him on the noggin
And they shot him into space.
We\'ll send him cheesy movies,
The worst we can find.
He\'ll have to sit and watch them all,
And we\'ll monitor his mind.
Now keep in mind Mike can\'t control
Where the movies begin or end,
He\'ll try to keep his sanity
With the help of his robot friends.
Robot Roll Call:
Cambot!
Gypsy!
Tom Servo!
Crow!
If you\'re wondering how he eats and breathes
And other science facts,
Then repeat to yourself, "It\'s just a show,
I should really just relax...
For Mystery Science Theater 3000!"

Dude, it\'s AWESOME.

Essentially you\'ve got a guy and some robots making fun of incredibly cheesy movies. Bloody hilarious.

Post by: alienmagic on December 30, 2002, 08:37:45 AM: This has been my favorite TV show since I discovered it during it\'s 3rd season. I even built my own Tom Servo using most of the same items that are used on the show. It took me 3 years to find all the parts, and cost about $150 for everything I had to buy, but it was fun being a "bot builder" for awhile.

Post by: videoholic on December 30, 2002, 08:42:29 AM: I\'ve seen it a couple times, but the comments were so stupid I never really gave it a chance. I know, I suck.

Yes, you certainly do.
Title: In the not-too-distant future.....
Post by: alienmagic on December 30, 2002, 01:13:26 PM: Let\'s see, my favorite episodes are probably:

The Deadly Mantis (favorite line: "Hey babe, I\'ve got a mantis in my pantis")

The Giant Spider Invasion

Danger! Death Ray

and of course the ever popular Manos: Hands of Fate

I have about 70 episodes on VHS, a few that have been released on DVD, and the theatrical release on DVD.

Post by: Halberto on December 30, 2002, 02:24:26 PM: I like it. One episode I saw was the killer worms one. This guy had a buttoned down shirt, and while he was picking something heavy up he started grunting and this dude was like "UUgggHHh I think I just popped a chest hair."

Post by: Coredweller on December 30, 2002, 03:01:12 PM: I used to watch MST3K all the time, but I feel like I missed many of them, and of course I never taped them.

Can anyone tell me where/when this show is still running in the US? I have DirecTV, so I probably get whatever channel you can throw at me. Thanks.
