They just passed the original Kickstarter total!

Edit: Or... maybe? The Kickstarter all-time page is misleading.

Yeah, the original total, at $6,364,230, is still a few minutes away

97 minutes to pass it

And even if they don't, that it's even coming this close with over 10k less backers than that one, and occurring during a pandemic and recession, is inarguably more impressive than the last Kickstarter

This may have been obvious to everyone else, but I just realized the $5.8 million "secret" stretch goal was probably originally going to be for the 13th episode. Things just picked up too quickly.

Honestly, 2K for supper for Weird Al or Justin Roiland sounds priced right. Wonder how awkward those are tho, if people who buy them bring their pitches, etc.

I ought to check out the other NuMST3K episodes. Only watched a few of the first new season and they were good, though the biggest thing was I felt the riffs were not paced well and did not have time to breath. Basically there is a slightly manic energy to it in that they really want to shoot their shot, for better or worse.
