Speaking of, I’ve found a more or less complete playlist on YouTube (plus what few classic episodes are available on the Gizmoplex) so I’ve decided to do a chronological rewatch of the series. Are any of the KTMA episodes worth watching? Because they (understandably) feel pretty rough so far

JethroMcB posted:Thanks to the old Satellite News broadcast schedule archive I know exactly when I first saw MST3K: March 13, 1993. Thank you for this. I'd watched it off and on growing up, but I know for sure we watched the late night premiere of The Thing that Couldn't Die at a fifth grade sleepover and thanks to that list I know it was 11PM on March 1, 1997.

I think one of my favorite all time riffs is in The Girl in Lovers Lane where the main character introduces himself as Bix Dugan and they spend the entire movie calling him Big Stupid.

Sardonik posted:The Last Chase (lol what if cars were made illegal) I watched that one a while ago and the premise of the film that the main characters are trying to escape the horrific hellscape of bicycles and public transportion that is most of the US to the freedom of car-loving California was so confusing to me until I remembered California used to be a solidly conservative/Republican state and even elected Ronald Reagan as governor since it goes so far against the current stereotype of that state. It's a lovely little time capsule of an earlier era of American politics

My family didn’t have cable until the late 90s so Time Chasers was the first episode I ever saw, when MST3K had already moved to Sci-Fi. I’ll always love those Season 8 & 9 episodes the most, it’s safe to say they had the single largest impact on my formative years from any piece of media.

I hate to say it but I feel the same way. Someone upthread posted that they already handicapped themselves by not using Kickstarter, and it just doesn't seem like the energy is there from the last crowdfund. Did they ever explain why the Gizmoplex isn't self-sustaining as they originally planned? That could be another reason for less enthusiasm. edit: lol if you google "make more mst3k" it still shows results from season 13's Backerkit and Kickstarter. Who is making these decisions

If the strike ends soon it will help a ton. Getting some ability to have the principles do some promotion will get us there in a third of the time

Hazo posted:Did they ever explain why the Gizmoplex isn't self-sustaining as they originally planned? No, but I can. It has little value when not screening a brand-new season of MST3k. Nobody's talking about it, and I don't think many people liked it in the first place. It pains me to say that, because MST3k is my all-time favorite show. I want it to be around forever. But the die-hard fans have already "circulated the tapes" or legally own a collection outright. Plus there are a ton of free and ad-supported places to see classic MST3k online already -- PlutoTV, the Twitch channel, and more. The Gizmoplex's live events (are they even doing any now?) weren't worth the cost of admission, nor were the exclusive(?) shorts. On top of that, most people now have streaming service overload, and many seem to be cutting way back. A niche premium service that people basically get for a single show isn't gonna fly.

Oh I imagine he could get himself free whenever he wants, but after dealing with Necromorphs having to watch a bunch of cheesy movies is a much easier gig so he's willing to play along with the Mads for the time being Larryb posted:Speaking of, I’ve found a more or less complete playlist on YouTube (plus what few classic episodes are available on the Gizmoplex) so I’ve decided to do a chronological rewatch of the series.

Also compared to most people in this thread I'm very much a latecomer to the franchise, had some awareness of it in the late 90's and early Aughts but just never got around to watching any of it before it got canned, first time I watched anything of it would have probably been whenever Netflix had first gotten its hands on the streaming rights for The Movie, so probably somewhere around 2012
