Back in 1997, when the show went to the Sci-Fi Network, I had to get satellite service in order to get the channel since my local cable company (who would be absorbed by Comcast) didn't carry it. This was back when you had to buy the equipment and there were no DVRs. It was over $1000. Now, I'm getting the Dish Hopper 2 and will be able to stream Netflix . My TV can stream it, but I can record the show with the new DVR.

Gaz-L posted:So you'd be 2 eps deep by midnight if it came out at 9 o'clock? If it was at 9, I'd watch it at 9. Point is, I stay up late enough that I don't have an issue about watching at midnight. Brings me back to when I binge watched a bunch of episodes during my undergrad while staying up late to finish oil painting assignments.

Here's another MST3K article I wrote. A look at the "landmark" episodes throughout the years. Frank retweeted it, so I'm pretty pumped.

I've mostly been doing digital art as I listen to MST in the background and pen and ink drawings these days, oil paint is too expensive and messy even though it's a fun medium. I like acrylics too!

Re 1104: Riffing was pretty good, but three out of four of the host segments were legit bad. They really seemed to be rushing and not letting the jokes set up or land, except for the post-movie one which JUST WOULDN'T END, so it wasn't just cutting for time. It's like they saved all their effort up for the big musical number. Fun movie though. "All the other times I killed people, I was right."

It's going to actually be strange to have an entire season of MST3K just readily available to watch in its entirety, a thing which has basically never happened. I might skip around like I always have, but I feel like I should watch the season in order now that it's no trouble to do so. Regardless, I'm totally psyched to finally be able to watch this when I get off work in a few hours.

I hate Tom Servo's new voice! Crow isn't too bad. Sure I'll get used to them soon enough, though.

So far this is much better then I thought it would be, but I'm usually cynical about reboots/returns. There are only a few things that bother me so far about it, like the sight gags (Tom flying around, etc.), which feel like the little skits they would do on Cinematic Titanic which always fell flat for me. I also think that Patton Oswalt so far is not great, but truthfully, I know that's just me wanting TV's Frank instead. At least it isn't J. Elvis Weinstein. On the other hand, Baron Vaughn, Jonah Ray and Hampton Yount are great, they have great chemistry and fit the style perfectly. I am so glad it's back.

The "Reptilicus Mash" had me dying Now that it's live, are we still spoilering everything? I've already had enough laughs that any nit picking is forgiven. Learn to love the changes, it makes everything better that way!

I feel like I never really left even though I became a fan only a few years ago and then waited another good year for this to be a thing. It feels so good to be back. Goddammit, I laughed at, "Why do they always talk about my bulge  "

Holy gently caress the Monster song had my dying. This new rapidfire riff style is amazing, honestly. And as someone who got into MST3k as a small child it's even funnier now because more of the riffs land.

Man when they said this was huge fans trying to capture the spirit of a s how they loved they weren't kidding. I could nitpick some stuff and all but this is great already and so clearly a passion project for the people in it. The higher quality puppets are JARRING though.

I'm like halfway through the first episode and the best word I can think of to describe this is "surreal". Not in a bad way, it's just similar but different enough to be strange

The guy doing Crow sounds so much like Corbett it's scary. I'm seeing the things people have been nitpicking about earlier this week but I just can't give a poo poo. It's minor stuff and the riffing is great.

I don't mind either of the bots' voices at all, but I'm honestly having a hard time differentiating between them sometimes. Murphy's lower pitched voice made it easier before. Am I crazy or do I need a new sound bar

Everything is like that. I remember when I was a kid not being able to tell which one was Mike and which was Crow. Same with every podcast I've ever listened to that has two guys on it. Eventually you listen/watch enough, and it's weird that you ever couldn't tell them apart.
