Joel and the bots are attempting to revive the classic hilarious t.v. series, but they need YOUR help!
Hello, People of Earth. Welcome!
I'm Joel Hodgson....
Once upon a time, a television series called MYSTERY SCIENCE THEATER 3000 was born. We debuted on Minneapolis' KTMA, local television, on Thanksgiving Day 1988, as the world was in the final throes of Teddy Ruxpin-mania. That was almost thirty years ago, but for some reason, people still seem to like the show – it’s a mitzvah!
Our show has had a long, strange run. Across a UHF channel, a cable network, cancellation, a feature film, then another cable network, the show lasted for 12 years, two generations of hosts and puppeteers, 2 Emmy nominations and a total of 197 episodes before we got canceled again for good in 1999. Sadly, it was just as Prince predicted.
But maybe that's not where it all ends.
Starting today, we finally get a chance to bring back MST3K.

I bought one of the MST dvd sets at a sci fi con a while back just to see how they handled one of my favorite 60's cheesy 'B' movies ... "Women Of The Prehistoric Planet". They tore it up even better than I could have imagined. It was hi-larious! Then again, with a cast that included John Agar, Irene Tsu, Merry Anders, Stuart Margolin, and Robert Ito they had a lot to work with. Hai kiba!

I loved that shit back in the day :)
If you build it, they will come.....
I'm excited as hell to watch W/Bob and David. 17 years after Mr. Show was cancelled on HBO, Netflix is giving us another 4 episode run of Bob Odenkirk and David Cross's hilarious sketch comedy.
I LOVE the non-network TV out there today and I ESPECIALLY LOVE how old series I loved have been or are being revived.
Who ever thought we'd get a 4th season of Arrested Development (also starring David Cross), thanks to Netflix? You probably never heard of Trailer Park Boys, but thanks to Netflix they made 3 more seasons of it after a 5 year hiatus (and hopefully more)!
Maybe if we ask nice enough, Netflix or Hulu or Amazon will bring back our Firefly?
Do Right, Be Right. :)

Yeah I was initially like "it's a funny show but I rarely have time for something like that". Then they added Felicia. Now I'll have to watch it.
