Does anybody remember this awesome show? Best episode of the ones I remember is Puma Man.
I remember as a kid, Crow used to scare me, but now I realize his true awesomeness.

I only remember Joel.

My favorite robot was Tom Servo.

MST3K has long been one of my all-time fave shows. I have a bunch of episodes of it on some old VHS tapes that I dig out and watch every now and then. 8)
It's too bad nobody's airing it anymore, they should think about bringing it back...

Both were good in my opinion. Most of my collection was taped off the Sci-Fi channel back in the 90's. Favorite episode has to be Space Mutiny, followed closely by Riding with Death and Final Sacrifice. I've been raised on MST3K since '97, and I really wish they'd air them again.

I loved MST3K! :D Joel was definitely the better host, and Crow was my favorite robot. It's been too many years since I've seen any episodes, :( so I can't remember which was my favorite.

I guy and two robots poking fun at bad movies -- brilliant! :lol:

I haven't watched it in a LONG time, but this was one of my favorite shows.

We've got a pretty good collection, though nowhere near having every episode. I taped a bunch before I got married and we bought some since then. We also used to hang out with some other fans we've since lost touch with and we did get to go see The Movie premier in L.A. which was a lot of fun. It would be great if they'd air them again, but I guess they have to make some money off them on their web site.

Have you heard of Rifftrax? That's what Mike is doing now. I've downloaded several, and now I won't watch Star Wars episodes 1-3 without them. Especially episode 2.

I remember when I was in my first apartment, almost 18 years ago and finally started making enough money to afford cable. I got hooked on MST3K, but think it kind of went downhill when Joel left. I later moved out of town and didn't subscribe to cable anymore so I didn't see it anymore.

Saturday nights with a take out pizza and MST3K were great!

I was around 20 before my local cable company (before it got taken over by time warner then comcast) carried MST3K (1994)

Remember some movies were so bad even they couldn't help - like "Side Hackers" and "Manos: The Hands of Fate?"

We have copies of both of those and you're right... we don't watch them much. Some films are just too painful. Pod People and Gamera, on the other hand...

Invasion of the Neptune Men was another (so bad it made them like Prince of Space.) However, there was the "Hitler Building"... :lol:

I saw a couple of episodes, but I also saw "MST3K: The Movie", and I loved it. It's the same premise as the series, and the movie they watch is "This Island Earth". The part where they "switch to normal view, Normal View, NORMAL VIEW, NOORMAALL VIEWWWWWWWWWW!! !" is priceless.

Every once in a while they did a decent movie.
