I've noticed quite a few Mystery Science Theater 3000 in this forum. What is your favorite combination of the cast? What are your favorite episodes? Let's discuss this in depth.

Manos was such a great episode. The old haunting Torgo theme :-p

 

So I would sy my favorite combination would be Joel with Dr. Forrester. The early days

I agree, early days right after they started getting national airtime on Comedy Channel. "Robot Monster" is probably my favorite. Every time I hear Tom Servo sing "Peeking through the knothole at Grandma's wooden leg" as the Robot Monster is walking along, still puts me in tears from laughing so hard.

 

Oh, and the saying "A man out standing in his field" is a line I still use to this day.

My personal favorite cast was Dr. F and Frank with Mike and the bots. I think my favorite episodes are "The Touch of Satan" and "Overdrawn at the Memory Bank."

Definitely Prince of Space, a 1950s Japanese science fiction film parodied by Mike and the gang. There seriously needs to be a version for the Generation 1 MLP films.

Ahhh MST3K. I don't know that I can pick a favourite. Though I will second Manos as a classic. I like all the cast combinations, but yeah, early days are the best.

 

Ladies and gentlemen... Manos; the Hands of Fate.

Prince of Space is one of the ones on it's way from Netflix now! I'm glad somebody recommended it. I'll watch anything on MST3K.

[MallaJong1 202]

You will laugh so hard for Prince of Space there will be no other to match it. Well, maybe because I am a lover of Japanese culture that Prince of Space hit home. It is also my first MST3K, so that probably had a larger impact on me. Though I am able to watch Prince of Space without getting tired of it.

 

I also enjoyed "Future Wars", which had to do with Dinosaurs enslaved from the past, that were then trained in the future, to come back to the present to take over the world defended by a man from the future. Yeah, I know. Seriously hilarious.

I've seen Future Wars. I laughed so damn hard at it! Have you seen Warrior of the Lost World? Crappy, but oooh so great!

[MallaJong1 202]

I have not yet seen "Warriors"! Thanks for the recommendation! What about the movie? This Island Earth! So good.

My favourite episode of MST3K would have to be Lazerblast. I think It's amazing how they turn a awful movie into such a funny experience. I even have a MST3K mousepad with Gypsy, Tom Servo, and Crow on it.

[Freewave 1,145]

The Joel episodes are my fav, couldn't feel the same magic once Mike took over and the cast significantly changed. I actually went to starcon where they got the original cast together right after his retirement which was pretty cool.

 

Fav episode would likely be Fugitive Alien 1, the timing on some of those comments is great (the tried to kill me with a forklift song is hilarious)

 

Likely should remember a few more Mr.B Natural was a hilarious short.
