Just curious if anybody watched this show, or have even heard of it. It used to be, before it moved from Comedy Central, to the Sci-Fi Channel, one of the funniest, and original shows on tv.
The concept: A guy, and two of his robot friends would watch some of the worse movies ever made, and rip on them.
If it walks like socialist, quacks like socialist, smells like a socialist, .... it's a socialist. Hope, and change we can believe in.

MST3K is awesome! When our local UPN affiliate first came on the air, they were showing Gamera movies. I got excited because I thought it was MST3K, then I realized they were showing the actual Gamera movie not MST3K :cry:

For those of you who don't know - Gamera was a poorly done Godzilla style movie that featured a flying space turtle whose legs went back into his shell turning into jet boosters, and he shot lasers from his beak/ fire from his breath.
It's the most fun in the park when your laughing in the dark.

Now that I really think about that..... :lol: , and he really cared about Earth's children. Just like Godzilla, he would get his ass kicked bad half-way through the movie, and then pull a Hulkster, and come back and kick butt.

Ahhh yes, those were some of the best MST3K episodes.

The first Gamera was the first MST3K I saw. Back when they had Joe...or was it Joel? It's been a while. 'Earth Versus The Spider' was the second one I saw. I have them on tape somewhere along with some really hillarious old commercials from the ninties.

Ever see the movie?

I was lucky enough to have bought the original DVD when it first came out. They pulled it from the shelves in 2000 when the rights to "This Island Earth" expired.

Old topic, I know, but last year I made my own MST3K video. Check it out.

I loved this show, wish it was still on. If you still do like it, these guys actually still do the voiceover stuff for current movies and other miscellaneous documentaries in the form of Riff Trax. I've heard a few of them, and it's just as good as MST3K, on top of the fact that it's a movie you might have actually seen before. You have to buy the voiceovers though from the site.

^Yeah, I've been watching those. The Twilight ones are probably the most hilarious thing ever.
