Mystery Science Theater 3000.

I can't be the only one here who is a fan of the show. In case you don't know that MST3K is, it's about a guy named Joel who works as a janitor at a place called Gizmonic Institute. His bosses, Dr. Forrester and TV's Frank, decide to shoot him into space and use him as a guinea pig for Dr. Forrester's experiment: How many bad movies can one person watch before they go insane? Joel builds two robots, Crow T. Robot and Tom Servo, so he doesn't go insane from the loneliness. Joel, Crow, and Tom make fun of the bad movies they're forced to watch.

The show has such a simple premise, but it works beautifully.

I love it. Their showing of Manos is my favorite.

There are very few vhs tapes I keep the originals of. Some boxing, retro originally boxed porn (you spend 19.95 on a glossy box cover of Tori Wells ass and tell me you would throw it out ;D ), and the copies of MST3k. It wasn't the same when Joel left and they brought in Mike but still classic!! They did these "Turkey Day Marathons" ;D but since Comedy central dropped it I haven't seen it on tv? Love that type of subtle, cutting observation humor and its something every single one of us does at home watching a B movie..or the local news. The show was genius man.

I'm a total Mstie!

Manos....people enjoy that??? Jesus, I love bad movies but some bad movies aren't even fun to make fun of.

My lady and I made certain to watch Santa Claus Conquers The Martians as well as Santa Claus vs The Devil...brilliant jibes taken at those movies

If you are a gamer at all then I suggest playing the Manos: The Hands of Fate IOS game on iphone or ipad.


It's quite good, despite the movie apparently being horrid.
