MST3K - "Hired! The Musical"

[BettinaBalser]

This is right up there with "sack of monkeys in my pocket...idiot control now"

[km9OOO]

This is the Stairway to Heaven of MST3K songs.

[SpinyNorman13]

Little Tom Servo's got some singin' chops!

[Nonamearisto]

3 people are brain-dead not to like this!

[ringoisawesome]

"come on and have some lemonade!" my mom wouldn't stop singing thst line

[efrem1]

Zero? Yes, that was the change in employment in August. Nice going government. Just get out of the way.

[neosoc]

They should turn this into a full-length musical. Thumbs up if you agree!

[thefaboloussob]

I just bought Vol. XIX & discovered this! Bravo, Joel Tom & Crow! I kinda wished they did a musical for "Hired Part II" as well.

[drido]

This has always been one of my favorite sketches. My favorite show.

[Aeolis7]

Tom Servo has such an AWESOME singing voice!

[VTPPGLVR]

I LOVE it! Great songs!

X-D In the background during "Zero", every time Gypsy chimes in with "Zero!!", Mike peeks up looking like "what the--?" (^.^) Oh, MST3K & RiffTrax take me to my happy place.

[Aeolis7]

@VTPPGLVR Mike? It's Joel baby!

[prometheusunbound]

brilliant stuff

[mytruepower2]

In response to the video description, I actually think that line by Servo was meant to be tongue-in-cheek, to poke fun at how things really went after the video was produced.

And I also think that aside from the somewhat banal plot, this could make a seriously awesome musical.

[danplewnarz]

YES THEY DO!!

[Fujikorific]

This show is no more ridiculous than half the shows running on Broadway right now...

[MovingShadowFX]

1:48 Joels face both times when Gypsy sings "Zero". ^_^

[queensnyc2020]

I'm gonna have Tom's solo stuck in my head for a long time now

[CTHimes]

This is probably the best host segment in the history of the show. Fantastic.

[CaptEoNinja83]

Kevin's a great singer!

[TheQuiZNoKid]

If Tom Servo is the head of a car dealership why is he still living at home with his parents?

[runawayfreak]

@TheQuiZNoKid because....*starts singing* He sucks at his job!

[BettinaBalser]

Joel forever.

[asalingerreference]

We're gonna get awwwwnings!

[GusF]

With a voice like that, Gypsy missed her true calling as an opera singer.

[Deokishisu]

After watching this how many of you have had the Hired song stuck in your head and randomly recite lines to people?

[SoylentGreeeen]

Kevin has such a great singing voice.

[HazyChase20]

This musical deserves a Grammy.

Who agrees with me?

[24dolph]

A Grammy would be great! I totally agree!

[lonelysith66]

Why, why did they cancel this show? WHY?! Could somebody PLEASE explain that?!

DX

[24dolph]

your guess is as good as mine! i was pretty upset too.

[suzycreamcheesez]

@lonelysith66 it has something to with who owns the rights?? to the movies?? the comedy channel or sy fy?// sorry about the questions, that's as much as I understand! whatever the reason it's our loss.

[lonelysith66]

@suzycreamcheesez That sucks!

DX

[dominatrixbabydoll]

@lonelysith66 not even modern science can explain it...

[dominatrixbabydoll]

@dominatrixbabydoll but jesus the writers of this show were freakin' awesome!

[CaptMARNEY]

Come on and have some lemonAAADE!

lmao gypsy's so cute

[emilyyzombie]

"Yeah, me!"

"He's selling Chevrolet"

"We're gonna get awnings!"

LMAO.

[abeautifulagony]

"My salesmen are slobs!"

"No they aren't!"

"Yes they do!"

Favorite host segment ever.

[masticina]

*laughs* This is so good

[jajaeeyore93]

"See the USA in your Chevrolet"? Oh, goodness, what hilariousness. Most comedians today probably don't even know who Dinah Shore (or any of the other people referenced in this show) even is, let alone know enough about to make a spoof.

Why must true genius always be discontinued?!!!

[MaximumTheMokona]

Actually, thanks for pointing that out. I'm a bit too young and too foreigner to even notice it was a spoof :D

(I swear almost everything I know about American pop culture I learned from googling MST3K references!)

[lonelysith66]

I think that maybe it was too much for the average person to handle!

XD

[4everasinger286]

zeeeeeeeeeeroooooooooooooooooo­os. LOL!

[DarkPascual]

Keep circulating the tapes!!!

[AlexandriaM]

"Zeeeroooooos.

Zeeerooooooooos.

None of my salesmen has ever sold a car..."

[Funkychipmunk]

My inner gay choirboy loves this musical. I wish they continued it with part 2.

[quizno1992]

i love tom's "zero" solo

[Headbanger142]

ROFL Crow's mouth looks so rediculous in some parts.

[shouldistillneedone]

"car production stopped during WWII to conserve metal."

This is intended as a funny, cynical deus ex-machina to end the skit.

[Rebel224Rebel]

Seriously, Joel FTW.

[HallieAnn345]

This is REALLY funny!!!

[GlobalsoftPirka]

This may be the funniest thing I've seen on MST3K thus far, and that's saying something!

[Adrialgon]

This is great! Thanks for putting it up, It's a great video!

[belgariontheking]

Omg..I had a great thought. Tom Servo as a lounge singer! I'm sure someone in Las Vegas would pick that up.

[AncientGearEngineer]

I loved this skit.

[OonaCanute]

WTF is with all the MST3K clips disappearing from Youtube???

[ShadesofScorpius]

Yeah, I feel your pain. Apparently Viacom is protecting its ownership, and they're going around yanking them...but it sucks to no end. I don't know if it's just Youtube, or all areas of the internet.

[LtGripweed]

They removed the local color skit! With Crow the Llama and "You people bring matches for Mikey?"

[laural73mc]

Lol

Servo: ZEROOOOOO ZEROOOOOO!!!

[DaGoulian]

"Kinda odd how Servo mentions that selling cars will help the war effort; car production stopped during WWII to conserve metal."

In all fairness he is portraying a crappy car dealer whose never made a sale lol.

[KKtrin]

"We're gonna get awnings! Maybe even dessert!"

Love ya Joel.

[MazeleyFanClub]

Yeah, this one is great, and it being all one take makes it so much more impressive.

[punkinheadcharlie]

This is all kinds of awesome.

[alexvlk]

What's so amazing is that these intermissions are all done with one complete take. That's amazing with puppets and the ridiculous props.

[luexiana]

this isnt the first time ive said "damn commercials"

[Deokishisu]

One of the best MST3K skits ever!

[Wolviesbabe89]

watch out rent!!

[HeresToPhilipWylie]

These guys' comic genius never fails to astound me.

(I know I'm several months late, judging from the date of the comments, but if that "MST3K: The Musical" bandwagon is still going, I'd like to hop on.)

[piratapequeno]

Actually, Best Brains was thinking of making MST3K the Movie a musical, but the Universal was a dick about it and wouldn't let them.

[HeaDoNCoLLiSioN8]

no they arent! yes they do!

[ivalice1980]

"Come on and have some LemonADE!" LMAO..I can't believe I never saw this before. Classic.

[VGnut]

That... was rich. =D

[ShoesB3tch]

Love love LOVE Joel's face when he looks at Gypsy when she sings "zero!", then something like "preeeeeow". It' just so funny.

[magpiepeck]

Genius. Best show on tv in its heyday.

[Astro7Nut]

3:04-3:28

Joel looks awsome!!!

[casescenario]

This is great. Seriously, does anyone have this on mp3? The humor and comic timing these guys worked into their acts was just... mwah! Brilliant.

[AnitaLife27]

It's on Clowns in the Sky I, the Best Brains CD. I guess CITS I and II are out of print, but I saw them on ebay. (yuck!)

[casescenario]

Hey, thanks.

[PrettySmartAndHappy]

MST3K The Musical!! Come on Broadway/ West End! This is the kind of stuff we need, forget Phantom of the Opera and Les Miserables!

[Odin314]

The last three comments were posted by rabid MSTie fangirls. I can already feel the estrogen seeping through my internet connection.

[blindfolding]

Well you'd better get a straw and suck it up, man.

[Odin314]

Never said I had a problem with it. ;)

[scarlettohara77]

aughh joel IS SO HOT.I WANT HIMahem.anyway.i want this on my mp3

God bless

push the button frank

jessie

[Halsgoddess]

The way Joel looks at the camera just before he presses the commercial sign button is painfully cute!

Man I love him...

[OonaCanute]

Joel is a dreamboat.

[crowtservo]

Nah. Now Mary Jo Pehl is a babe.

[blindfolding]

Joel is just SO ADORABLE <3

And boy can Kevin Murphy SING. XD

[Ututwhynot]

@blindfolding this is honestly one of their better songs they've ever done..and kevin murphy a while back released a cd with all of tom's songs

[kbrinks]

i love crows singing voice hahaha

[scarlettohara77]

i love this.joel rules.also a full length musical would be awesome with one with joel and one with mike.joel is funnier.mike can belt it out. mst3k:the musical.i love it.tom servo is soulful in his art

[trinityj1]

@scarlettohara77 You know this was written by Mike and Kevin, right?

[pullahoko]

"My salesmen are slobs!"

"No they aren't!"

"Yes they do!"

[magpiepeck]

I'm gonna be a failure just like you, dad.

This song is so brilliant, words fail me. They should make an MST3K full-length musical.

[spookette]

An MST3K musical? Either that's the craziest idea I've ever heard or the most BRILLIANT IDEA EVER!!

I'm gonna go with the latter.  :D

[quietgirl77]

well hey, they made a Monty Python Musical and it's a hit! i say we start campaigning for an MST3k musical!!!!

HI-KEEBA!

[mayumiemi]

To hear "Idiot Control" and their version of the "Gamera" song on stage would be nothing short of pure bliss ^_^

[aquaorbis]

Love it! So hilarious.

[Astro7Nut]

I miss these guys so much

[magpiepeck]

Mike, Kevin and Bill collaborate on Rifftrax. It's hilarious. You should check it out.

[Astro7Nut]

Oh yeah, I love the Harry Potter one!

[magpiepeck]

The Dare Devil one is priceless. Half of it is up on you tube.

"Electric Nachos?"

[Tareltonlives]

"Keep him around, I might decide to eat him"

[Tareltonlives]

"Malfoy aced his Cowardly Shrieking final last semester"

[killerlimes]

MST3K is by far one of the best shows, ever
