He's going to be part of the closing telethon tonight but beyond that... (Though yes, Weird Al doing the S13 theme song would be the greatest thing ever and would probably kill me w/joy.)

Mal-3 posted:Maybe? He's going to be part of the closing telethon tonight but beyond that... They'll need at least 3 versions of the theme song, too. They can re-use Jonah's (unless Netflix owns it), Joel's would be a stretch, but Emily will need a new one for sure. Maybe one of the secret stretch goals they're talking about will be that he does one or more of them.

For as ELON MUSK!!!!!! everyone was, the guy is like a void of charisma. It was like an anti-presence. It really surprised me.

TVs Ian posted:They can re-use Jonah's (unless Netflix owns it), Jonah's is sung by a sexual predator, so as much as I liked it as a song I'd be happy if he got a new one.

Was it also written by the sexual predator? I agree that a clean slate of a song with zero Har Mar association would be best.

I've never been wild about the Jonah version of the song's "la la la's" being rendered in trumpets. Kinda sucks all the air out of the joke

I have no problem with the idea of a Halloween episode, but it doesn’t particularly motivate me to put more money down either. For some reason a vocal contingent in the Kickstarter comments has been really pushing for them to do one though. I don’t particularly get it. The real final bonus goal of a thirteenth episode with everyone in it is much more exciting to me.

CapnBry posted:Yeah but Thanksgiving sucks because my stupid family loves me and wants me around and won't stfu so I can watch some MST3K in peace. I guess that's really not an issue with the Gizmoplex though since there will be something new every month and I can just sit quietly by myself and enjoy that instead. Halloween episodes are just easy to add content to. What other holiday theme would it be? Christmas? No thank you. Easter? Flag Day? It's almost certainly a Christmas special judging by the update post. "Like I said at the end of our last Kickstarter, I've always loved holiday TV, and the tradition of "special episodes" from Bing Crosby, Charlie Brown, and of course, Rankin/Bass. We've already got three of our own holiday episodes – one each for me, Mike, and Jonah – and now, if we're able to meet this final goal, it'll be Emily's turn. "

Splint Chesthair posted:HOW in the world did it take this long for MST3K and Weird Al Yankovic to officially cross paths??? I think Al is the only other person I've thrown in this much money toward something they've chosen to crowdfund (back when he needed to re-master and re-press all his old material to get it the hell away from the creepy record label that used to distribute him).

Kinga seems semi-self aware. She knows she's putting on a TV show, so she'll just say she's doing it for the ratings.
