is there anywhere online to watch every episode? really disappointed with the small netflix selection on offer right now

Here's a list I made of where you can legally watch each episode. Most of them, at least.

Pluto TV has an all-MST3K channel with maybe 20 or so episodes in good quality, and is totally free. They seem to loop 4 or 5 episodes a day. I know there's apps for iPhone and Amazon.

The downside is it's literally a channel. If you miss something you have to wait until it rolls around again. Plus they keep the original ad breaks for maybe 2 minutes of new ads or Pluto id's.

Almost all the other channels are junk but it's worth a download. They have a couple of obscure movies channels that aren't bad at all.

It's a real shame that the rights to the Japanese monster movies are such a headache; I'm a fan of those films on their own terms and so the MST3K episodes featuring them are among my favorites. I have the MST3K vs. Gamera box set, luckily.

Sandy Frank never did forgive them for that song they did to make fun of him, did he?

"Time of the Apes," in case you were wondering which one it's from.

I think the episodes on Pluto are the ones on the official MST3k YouTube channel, because Pluto pulls most of its content from YT.

I like him already. That voice is familiar.

That's the worst kind of movie I think, for MST3K.

It's just not a lot to work with.

I tried watching it in bed the last three days and kept falling asleep during it.

I think one of the smart things Joel did was to have Jonah help pick the new bots. They have a built in, natural rapport, and it helps to rekindle the vibe of the old show, which to me alway seemed like a bunch of friends having a good time.

Racket Girls is one of my favorite episodes because the movie is so goofy and pretty much every riff is hilarious. Then you have the added treat of a great short and the rare time the host segments are about the short instead of the movie.

Some of my biggest laughs are when Mike is visibly corpsing, like when he busts up at the surly shopkeep ("Creeper, creeper!") in The Beast Man.

Yeah, one thing I keep getting from all the interviews is that all three of them are

A) really excited to work on the show, like it's a dream come true
and
B) think of themselves as a team and really like the way the dynamic works between them.

I'm at work and can't watch the video and now I have to wait like eight hours :mad:

e: The guy who voices and operates Waverly posted on some old MST3K Proboards. I'm glad they're trying to stay engaged:

It's probably just practice now. The Kickstarter and FoD videos were their first tries at the roles, but they've shot the whole season now so they're probably settled into the voices.

There is a backers only Kickstarter post that walked through the design process for Mr. Waverly. Unfortunately it doesn't say what the original parts were but it does say that the final model is a ~1.5x 3d-printed blow-up of the original prototype (which was cobbled together from bits of common household items like the classic bots) so you may have to look at smaller items than you are currently looking at.

I cant access the kickstarter page from work, but a friend of mine sent me a picture of one of the prototypes (with action figure arms and legs). Looks like it is a kids castle pail. That will probably be the hardest part to get, sans 3d printing, since I have not seen one of those in Waverlys size.

Hitting up Homedepot, Walmart, Goodwill, and the Dollar Store on the way home to see if I can get the rest of his parts.

It's some manner of sand castle mold. Looks like it's probably from Small World Toys. Same for the shoulders I believe, although those particular molds are a bit different and might not be sold anymore/be part of a different kit.



The yellow one in the back is the mouth, and the shoulders are some alternate version of the red crossed with the blue.
