A Case of Spring Fever

[Leatherbubba]

How to lose friends and alienate people.

[TheRealThreeP]

Can't decide between short sleeves and long? Split the difference!

[goherd3112]

I like how coily turns him into a tireless zealot for springs.

[CaptainTr1pps]

IN HELL

[PirateLordRogan]

So wishing away springs causes the man of loaf to become death destroyer of doors? I fail to see the logic going from "no springs" to "I closed my door and caused a window to shatter." Why didn't the car door windows explode when he closed the door, Coilie? WHY DIDN'T THEY EXPLODE?!

Also, welcome to Divot Hills.

[CaptMARNEY]

2:56 Well I still don't have to fix the couch, so EAT me. *repeatedly slams glove compartment door*

[ig88bc]

You know, I understand this shorts goal, but what event prompted its creation?

[imagineerboi]

Later that night he would be visited by the ghost of spring future.

[demonicspire1]

they need to make sextoy versions of the bots. I can think of some freaky things to do with crow's beak. Also, when inserting crow, take care to use a condom so you don't catch werecrow.

[cavalierfan1995]

MERRY CHRISTMAS YOU OLD COUCH!

[cavalierfan1995]

YEAH TRY IT 8 MORE TIMES

WELL I STILL DONT HAVE TO FIX THE COUCH SO EAT ME!

[cavalierfan1995]

me,id rather have a case of bass ale

good one

[XinKotetsu]

COME BACK ZINC! COME BACK!

[videovic99]

Brought to you by the american spring company - fighting communism since 1947. Springs - it's what those commie bastards envy.

[LizzieBabes419]

2:44, why was Crow silent?

[teddygrammm]

@LizzieBabes419 sometimes they would edit the dialogue and add or remove the audio of some of mike and the bots' lines...with mike or servo you would never be able to tell because you can barely see their mouths move, but it was a lot harder for them to hide it with crow. occasionally the opposite will happen and you'll hear crow talking, but his mouth won't be moving

[CheezeFox]

And I thought 90's PSAs were full of shit...

[SURFUR]

If there are no springs.... why does that annoying little bargain-basement Jiminy Cricket Collie still exist?! I'm so glad they discontinued short school propogranda films like this. Not exactly "The Twilight Zone," is it?

Notice how pissed off his friends are hearing about springs. "Dont bother!" In his car, they're falling into a coma hearing his new-found spring fetishism. Until YOU came along, no one was complaining of the existance of spring.

"I hope I never see Collie again!"

[John27346]

Was it funded by the car industry by any chance?

[Xarimaru]

A spring is based on elasticity... the ability of material to return to its original form after it's been forced out of shape...

By anti-spring extremists.

[NinjaGhostScorpion]

Booooooooooiiiiing....

*Tom sings the Merrie Melodies theme*

[htomsirveaux42]

what does Coily do in his spare time?

[RockmanVX]

I'm sure his friends are just dying to yell "SHUT UP!"

[nosprings1]

No Springs Dee Doo

[xxPatheticEmoxx]

People read slowly back then. Lol.

[GrimReaper19]

Sufficient springs! *hwoo-hew*

[mattymjb]

Technically he said he never wanted to "see" another spring. Coilie could have just permanently blinded him with coat hanger instead of going through the trouble of altering reality.

[EmperorChupacabra]

@mattymjb But Coily likes being a manipulative bastard.

[cdg03]

@mattymjb Great comment, made me laugh as much as anything in the short.

[746c]

I wish the comentary was gone because this seems like such a wonderful show.

[MarnieReeves]

@746c You can find this video without the commentary on YouTube and also at archive dot org.

[spitfire5scottie]

They should really bring this show back. Maybe i would watch scifi again.

[marky2112]

This video went around my office and people were shouting "No Springs" all the time. Our business never really recovered.

[htomsirveaux42]

I wonder if Viacom has a sprite

[llirrem]

"No music...hahahaha"

[BackgroundBailey]

@htomsirveaux42 Viacom shares the copyright sprite along with Disney and Warner Brothers.

[Sportymcdouglas]

This is before one of the best episodes too

Squirm

[sparklingj82]

guns, huh?

[CrittermationsPictrs]

NOOOOOOOOO springs!

Heheheheheheheee!

[quadlekku]

Notice the old Sci-Fi Channel logo on the bottom left corner. I miss that old logo, as well as all the promos they did back then. :-(

[georgehwbush]

Agreed, that was back when they were actually a SCI-FI channel instead of the made-for-TV-movies made now.

[mblatch777]

i agree very much!

[EmperorChupacabra]

@quadlekku Now they've distanced themselves from their original target audience with this "syfy" crap.

[FatalKitsune]

Best MST3k short, period.

[MoonBabyhowl]

Lots of loose soil out here to bury someone...

[SpitfireBoy86]

@MoonBabyhowl Heeeeyy!

[mistac27]

Torgo!!  That's not how you wear Depends!

[SLATania74]

Coilie isn't charming at all, he's creepy.(See Mst3k Santa Clause 5/10 to understand this joke).

[Someguy1975]

God love MST3K.

[Makron5]

That guy turned into my cousin vinny

[NinjaGhostScorpion]

"Can't decide between short sleeves and long? Split the difference!"

[ramensoup43]

at 6:59

that sharp turn they take, haha

[ncspacemonkey]

"Jam Handy reminds you to keep your preserves in a convenient place."

God, I miss MST3K.

[Phykus]

Its a zero!!!!!

[Garnetsigma]

Rip, tear, expose, horrified friends.

What's funny is that Crow makes references to this short during the Dr. F era, before they ever aired it on the show.

[JDogindy]

Crow: "Yeah, try it 8 more times, maybe it'll work!"

Servo: "So Coilie waited all eternity for this moment, and backs down instantly?" LMAO!

[emogirlie235]

i wanna play but i cant

[vfdj42]

"There's a lot of loose soil to bury someone out here."

I almost choked.

[minipundit]

Look! It's Coilie's army of darkness!

[sethtriggs]

"Welcome to Divot Hills."

"Nice putt."

[aguyok]

"Where does Coily fit in God's plan for us?"

[neogeon]

"you'll be the first to die!" god, endlessly quotable

[Iamtheice]

"Well, I still don't have to fix the car, so eat me."

"Guns, huh?"

"Oh, look! God has a spring!"

[lithiumgreen105]

"HEY!"

"I own your ass - GET BACK HERE!"

[mdefalla]

My favorite short. Thanks for posting!

[ngtnp]

Every time I've flying, I always think these lines from the short when I land: "When the ship lands, the springs ease the shock so much you can't even tell when you're on the ground." "Helps if you're stupid!" Thank you, MST3K!

[viahorn]

I have a new found appreciation for springs...and insanity!!

[MachineryNoise]

"Well, it's not as bad as the time I said 'no muscle tone'. Never recovered from that."

[00orochimaru00]

"No springs!! HEHEHEHE!!! -whistles-"

<33

[10gallonascots]

I love Coily

[10gallonascots]

"Jam Handy reminds you to keep your preserves in a convenient place."

Haha. As you can tell, this is my favorite short. There are so many good lines from it.

[10gallonascots]

"Lots of loose soil to bury someone out here..."

[10gallonascots]

"Merry Christmas you wonderful, old couch!"

[10gallonascots]

"Look! God has a spring!"

[10gallonascots]

"Spring-loving bastard."

[10gallonascots]

"No springs? I don't care; there's still butter and meatloaf."

[swimmingaggie]

Hahahahaha!!! That was HILARIOUS!!!

[ryanhorror]

"I own your ass, fat boy! Get back here!"
