I'll tell you right now there is no fucking way they spent $120 million on this thing when the only stars in it are Elizabeth Banks and two days work from Bryan Cranston.

It stinks!

Erma Bombeck says ALL teenagers are from outer space.

Joel Hodgson was not an unknown. He'd been on SNL four times before MST3K, as well as Letterman, The Tonight Show, etc.

I don't know—-four appearances on SNL is a pretty big showcase that the Bot guys don't really have anything comparable to. Oswalt is obviously much bigger than Hodgson was or is, but the show in general is a bigger deal now, so I don't think it's out of line to have him.

Would that have ruined the show?

As a rule, I find the ratio of laughter between watching something with other people vs watching alone is about 10-to-1.

Those I got, but what's the one with the blonde in the sunglasses? It looks like maybe Argoman or something.

That Crow sounds better to me than Bill ("I'm different!") Corbett's.

"It's the Crypt Keeper!"

Hoping for lots of Matthius Rust references.

The Dr. Katz promos too. When I think of MST3K I hear Penn Gillette's voice almost as much as Joel or the bots.

Yeah, Hodgson had even been on SNL before MST3K. He was a known entity.

Yeah, no. Not feeling this one.

It was Jan Hooks and Demi Moore.

"Time hasn't been kind to Beauty And The Beast's weird central romance".

I could actually go for a dice and sponge sandwich right about now.

i used to worry more about stuff like that, but it seems like anything with even a bit of an audience has a pretty safe haven on Netflix. Hell, even something like Hemlock Grove lasted four or five years.

I'll take her.

Not necessarily. It's definitely about two people who have some growing to do before they're ready to be with anyone, let alone someone just as damaged as themselves, but that's why shows last several years.
