Mystery Science Theater 3000

What a gem. And I know I'm not the only MSTie here.

Anyway if anyone's been wondering why the "cutie" Leia chick has been using avatars of ugly people with weird taglines, there you go. MST3K. Current one: Calgan from Space Mutiny, which is my favorite episode. Before this I had Prince of Space, and before him, Pumaman. Both great episodes.

Come on, Freaks. Show your MST3K love! And if you've never heard of it, Youtube it. You won't be disappointed.

Hirohito Gamera! Hirohito Gamera! Hirohito Ga-me-ra!

I must say there have been some great episodes.

We didn't get the show up here so I'm just now discovering it on DVD. So far I'm enjoying it quite a bit. I've only seen two episodes so far, though - The Corpse Vanishes and Warrior of the Lost World. The second one had me laughing out loud a few times.

The best MST3K episodes never made it to DVD.

Look, Trumpy can do stupid things!!!

I actually own a MST3K CD of songs from the show. Every once in a while I throw that puppy in and sing along.

Great show. I even get about half the obscure references!

Minimate customizer Boyd just made some MST3K customs for Custom Con, btw, which are pretty awesome:

The latest boxed set (Volume XVI) is available in a limited edition that includes a figure of Tom Servo. A figure of Crow was apparently included in a previous boxed set that was also available in a limited edition. I managed to snag one on eBay, but it cost over $70 US.

Manos Hands of Fate ---- THE best episode ever!

Any of you guys tried RiffTrax before? I have not.

Love MST!!

Have all 16 volumes released so far, including the rare Vol 10 which was pulled from shelves after losing the rights to Godzilla vs Megalon.

 

[Morbach]

I love MST!

This is probably my favorite show ever...I have a bunch of the DVDs and watch them constantly. Best episodes are probably "Space Mutiny" and "Deathstalker and the Warriors from Hell". Space Mutiny has the greatest chase scene ever put to film.

Oh and Mike > Joel

Oh and I just noticed the Kalgon avatar Cloud

Great, another set that's going to cost a bundle on eBay.

So that's the 20th Anniversary set that's available in a limited tin with a Crow figure, Volume XVI in a limited edition with a Tom Servo figure, and the original release of Volume X that is out of production due to copyright issues. Are there any other MST3K DVD sets that are rare or hard to find?

"Remember to believe in magic - or I'll kill you."

Ever since Crow retired he's been crashing at my place. We've got a fling going on.

 

[El Skutto]

I found out that volumes 8 and 9, and the original release of volume 10 are all out of print due to copyright issues. Those suckers go for big bucks on eBay at the moment. I wonder if there's any chance they'll ever just release season sets instead?

Oh, and I agree that Joel > Mike.

 

[Cloud]

I vote Mike > Joel.

 

[Mad Old Lu]

Loved the show! I remember they would play it every night at 11pm on Comedy Central. As far as Joel being better than Mike, it's kinda true. But wasn't Mike a writer on the show when Joel was around? I just think they used up all the great jokes by the time Mike starred on the show!

I particularly loved when they would do shorts!

Manos Hands of Fate ---- THE best episode ever!

I agree! My all-time favorite and the funniest episode I have ever seen.

 

[karamazov80]

I used to like Joel's dry delivery more, but honestly, Mike might have been a bit funnier. Love them both, though.
