Mystery Science Theater 3000

Sing along with me, boys and girls!

[I]In the not too distant future
Next Sunday AD
There was a guy named Joel
Not too different from you or me
He worked at Gizmonic Institute
Just another face in a red jumpsuit
He did a good job cleaning up the place
But his bosses didn't like him so they shot him into space
[/I](Typed from memory, I'm that cool :downs:)

[B]So, what is MST3k?[/B]
Why would you ask that? Do you live under a rock or something? Get out of here with your stupid questions.

As everyone knows, MST3k is the greatest show to ever exist. No exceptions. Can you think of any other shows like it? You've got this cool guy (Joel, or Mike if you're watching the inferior episodes) and some robots, and they watch terrible movies and say generally hilarious things as the movie is playing. Each episode is either an hour or two and a half and lasts the length of an entire movie.

If you're American, then why don't you sit down and watch an episode on hulu. [URL="http://www.hulu.com/mystery-science-theater-3000"]Right here[/URL]
If you're not American, then GET THE FUCK OUT! AMERICA IS THE BEST! Why don't you go watch it on your little commie Youtube or the bay that shall not be named, or even a simple google video search because the show is almost everywhere. The episodes are basically never taken down because it's the series motto you know; "Keep the tapes circulating"

I've always thought the skits in between the movie watching was pretty unfunny but actually riffing on the movie they're so damn witty.

You should probably put something about the characters or the best episodes

I fucking love this show. Just great stuff.

I love the show, been watching it on netflix. However, what's with it seeming like a kid's show, then a movie comes on and it's dick jokes galore.

[Handsome Pete]

This is probably one of the best TV shows of all time

I saw Joel Hodgson and like four other people who were on the show live at this touring thing called Cinematic Titanic in 2009, where they pretty much just do what they did here but with a real movie screen and them talking through mics on a little side stage.

I got to meet them and get autographs, it was so fucking funny

[Alex_DeLarge]

Yeah I was there when they ripped on New Moon

[Jookia]

Does anybody know the episode where the word 'robot' is pronounced as 'robit'?

I remember watching this; The only thing I remembered from it was the silhouette they use for the screens.
