MST3K - Funeral Dreamin'

One of my favorite host segments, from MST3K episode 511 Gunslinger. Joel and the robots contemplate what it would be like to be dead, and what they want their funerals to be like. Tom and Crow have some, uh, interesting requests.

I'd have Servo sing my funeral dirge any day. He makes it sound all jazzy.

What animosity? All I hear is a nice father-and-bot moment.

I sense zero "tension between the performers", despite what the mst3kinfo site says. Could someone has just misinterpreted the lighting and angle on Joel's face as expressions of discontent?

Rocketed into the sun that is what I want.

Corn Palace lol..

What is the tune Tom Servo is doing at the end? Is that the Newlywed game?

Leave it to the MST3K men to cheer me up about death. Me, I'd like to be buried near the outskirts of the cemetery and my head stone would be a bench to sit on, like Danny Kaye's.

@AniRemi Burial at sea. simple, cheap, very rapid decomposition.

@AniRemi also how they call each other honey sometimes (mostly joel) XD

[Buriedwithdrawingpad]

''...and if everybody ran off a cliff would you do that too?!'' XD

[AniRemi]

Awww. "Why don't you just not die?" With all their wisecracking, the bots still seem innocent in some aspects. I wanna hug them.

(And when I die, my family is to dispose of my corpse in the cheapest, most environmentally-friendly way possible, then have a nacho party.)

@Redbob86 From what I understand, Joel and Jim Mallon argued quite a bit, and he left, but regretted it.
