Mystery Science Theater 3000: C/D, S/D.

MRxL

I never caught the subtle bit of Pearl using a fish as a backscratcher until now.

the movie that takes the bold step of not including the audience

"Packers fans, the horrible truth."

Man and I remember that AOL joke being spot on that year.

Of all the Sci-Fi Channel episodes, I'd unhesitatingly call Spider Invasion my favorite.

"You rolled on me!"

Young Bill and Hillary struggle to make it...

Such a wonderfully bizarre assortment of random character actors, former stars and local aspirants.

"Ignore the blood here."

Also, I feel my day was truly enriched learning that sweet potatoes were the only kind of potatoes TV's Frank didn't like growing up.

Loved that. I think that's a snippet from a larger bit on the newest DVD set.

yeah that was good!

"...like Linda Hunt"

rowsdoWURR-WURR-WURR-WURR

Apparently there will be more Thanksgiving memory bits between the films for the rest of the day, according to an official FB post. Cool!

"Humor of the 1840s!"

what former stars are in this besides The Skipper?

Barbara Hale!

And Steve Brodie for that matter.

"stars" is used v loosely

I love how they just randomly filmed in some chemistry classroom somewhere.

"she dresses like Johnny Carson"

"...and the giant spider invasion begins...now." "Now." "And...now."

When Barbara Hale won her Oscar for this role, she gave a touching speech during which she said, in effect, "Waaah-whooa-aaaah-aaoughaah!!"

I love this Shout Factory ad for giving me a new show to avoid.

this movie tested well with sexual predators

"No wonder I was constipated."

"I'm glad he's not a mohel."

And that probably is how the lead singer from the Spin Doctors looks now.

a geiger counter! we dont have any geigers around here

oh such japes

man that Nassau NASA joke never gets old

ok, I saw the ingénue on Star Trek (not a star)

ex-ingénue I meant

explaining the riffjokes WHAT A SELLOUT AMIRITE

You've been hittin' the booze again!

I had completely forgotten the Nelson / Murphy playing two diff characters in the interstitial bits era

Snap, crackle, poop!

"We still on for the Richard Feynman lecture?"

"Paul Reiser? This IS a horror movie."

Alan Hale answers a lot of phones in these movies.

"Shining your love!"

i'm only wearing one pantsuit....

Man I completely forgot about that phone bit where you can hear some off camera mumbling. And the rabble rousing to funk music.

Totally loving this.

The new segments are so cool!

ROCK CLIMBING!

rock climbing yaaaay

Monkey boy!

Cesar Romero!

Hugh Beaumont!

I resent those rock climbing jokes.

i would like to take a moment to say that young joel is and always will be supercrushworthy <3

He wore that goatee well.

Cesar was pretty hip there, the Dead, Mel Torme...

And random trivia there -- the guy playing Cesar's copilot? Chick Chandler, aka Wilbur from _Once Upon a Honeymoon_, the extremely fey angel.
