"super-secret spy, has a motorcycle, marooned in space-meets-Hurcules, or not." I've been working my way through any season 5 that's availale on here, and I think that whenever I have to try to describe mst3k, that's pretty much how I'll explain it.
Evilos, instead of Weeblos! I've missed that wordplay the last 4000x I've seen this! Used to have it on vhs.
There's no mystery as to why Frank called Dr. Forrester Steve. That's because Steve is his middle name, Dr. Clayton Steve Forrester. Maybe the real mystery is why Dr. Forrester refers to Mike as Frank's little friend, when clearly Frank and Mike do not interact as friends.
7:03 Listen very carefully to the way Joel (at least I think it's Joel) sings "the lunatic is on the grass".
He has managed to confuse Pink Floyd's "Brain Damage" with David Bowie's "Space Oddity"; incorporating the lyrics of the former with the tune of the latter!
While you're right, it's still a pretty damn brilliant comedic moment to mention the lyric at all, no? Joel Hodgson isn't supposed to be a great bloody musician.
joel is better liked cuz he wasnt around for the shows eventual decline. I think hes funnier on average, but my favorite episodes are still all mike episodes...
It is the first episode showing Mike. He was of course the head writer, and was the voice on some SOL skits. Kinda weird having both on at the same time.
In that case, you'll love the first episode of the final season; it's called "Soul Taker," and Joel returns to the ship, just for that episode. There is another guest star, but you have to see that one to believe it.
@ElveeKaye If you think that's awesome, you should look up Soultaker - at one point, they're both on the bridge of the SOL (but not in theater, natch!).
i miss the mst3k turkey day marathons! 24 hours of mysty goodness back in its hay-day on comedy central. i suppose youtube mini marathons are the next best thing
Although Mike is pretty funny, I still think Joel was the best.
I wonder why they don't get the crew back together and do some new episodes. Sure Mike and the guys have Rifftrax but its just not the same without their little heads bobbling around at the bottom of the screen.. sigh..
Its implied in a few episodes that if they don't enter the theater when the alarm goes off Forrester will kill them. That's why they even go in the theater at all! XD
@Omnicius It's just a show so just relax..lol...anyway to get TECHNICAL....the Mad's deprive all of the SOL of oxygen except the theater when it's Movie Sign....please see the end of The Invasion of the Neptune Men to see..
I remember the first time I saw Mitchell. It was like season 4 or 5 but on a rerun. It is so funny I laughed most of my Dr.Pepper onto the floor. I mean..c'mon people, Joe Don Baker! LOL!
Joel left the show in the middle of the fifth season, which would be this right here. The way they did that transition is...what you see right here. XD MST3K's Wikipedia article has a timeline for you.
Well, even the theme song shifts after they bring him on. "They hired a temp by the name of Mike. Just a regular Joe they didn't like. Their experiment needed a good test case, so they conked him on the noggin and they shot him into spaa-yace!"
