I hope I don’t really need to explain the premise of MST3K to anyone reading this, but on the off chance that a few of you don’t know about this show I’ll do it anyway. Once upon a time (1988-1999) there was this great show about a janitor who was exiled to space and forced to watch a horrible movie every week. To keep his sanity, he built himself a few robot buddies from spare parts, and they make wisecracks during the movies. Totally logical, right?
It’s silly and absurd, and that’s exactly how it’s supposed to be. This is a great collection of MST3K episodes, including two of my favorites, “Mr. B’s Lost Shorts” and “Teenagers From Outer Space”. Listening to Joel, Tom and Crow kinda reminds me of listening to Dennis Miller… you have to pay attention to get all of the references, and there’s no way you’ll get all of them. That’s part of the fun of watching with friends so you can compare with each other and try to get the most of out the humor. If this sounds like work, it’s not, it’s just good fun.
If you’ve already started a collection of MST3K episodes you’re gonna need this one. If you haven’t, this is an excellent place to start.
