Does anyone remember this show? I used to watch it all the time in college. My girlfriend at the time used to get so pissed and tell me I was a nerd. She hated that show. It was so damn hilarious, though. It would be on Comedy Central late at night, I would laugh my ass off every time I watched it, especially if I had a few drinks in me. I know they played it on Sci-Fi up until a year ago, but I haven't seen it since.

I loved this show as a kid...still do, actually.

Sci-Fi's rights to the show ended in January, so the show might not ever be shown on TV again. Quite sad.

I used to watch MST3K when if first came out, when Joel was the host, and when they were still able to roll stuff like a Toho Godzilla film.

The "Richard Basehart!" (Gypsy love of him) spoof was hillarous!

It's still on. Sci-Fi channel at 7am on Saturdays. Unless you've been up all night drinking the night before, it's about as inconvient as it gets.

My favorites are"The Day the Earth Froze" and "Manos: Hands of Fate."

Crow or Tom Servo mentions Pearl Jam in the beginning of the Manos episode.

That's awsome. I have it on VHS, I'll have to check it out. I found the MST Drinking Game online, and one of the rules includes chugging during the "Haunting Torgo Theme" which runs for about 45 solid munutes during Manos: Hands of Fate.

God, that show was hilarious.


And who hasn't done their own version of MST3000 when watching a bad movie.

Wow, this was such a great show. Anyone else remember the Turkey Day marathons they used to do on Comedy Central? I loved Thanksgiving once...

Heh, I was forced into seeing Titanic in the theater with my girlfriend, and lets just say it took a lot of apologizing to get her to talk to me again. My favorite part was when everyone was dying in the ocean at the end and the guy in the life boat is shouting and blowing his wistle, I go, "Everyone out of the pool! Free swim's over!" and the entire theater turned around and started yelling at me. Two older women in front of me started crying and the couple next to us moved down a few seats. Oh, it was so priceless. Thank you Mike/Joel, Tom Servo & Crow for that freedom.
