Oop,s I meant item, not tiem.

Anyway, I have a request for information on MST3K fans.  Apparently
Comedy Central wants to do promotional stuff of some sort, and they
need info.  To read this request, just type

        !more /u/robh/News/mst3k

at the Picospan prompt.

Help!  Due to a miscommunication between myself and my housemate, I managed
to tape every episode of Turkey Day EXCEPT "Teenagers from Outer Space."
Can anyone out their lend me a copy for dubbing purposes?  I'd also
like the segway with Dr. Forrester and Frank, between TFOS and "Hercules
Unchained."

For all those interested, I have two new files from Usenet in
my directory - ~robh/mst3kdrink contains the MST3K Drinking Game,
and ~robh/psxmas contains the lyrics and chords for "A Patrick
Swayze Christmas".

Now that the login has your attention...

I just received  a package from Lisa Jenkins in Minnesota.
It has two episodes from KTMA, the small independent station
which originallly showed MST3K, and nine of the first-season
episodes, which are no longer shown on Comedy Central.  I'd
love to get together and have a mass showing for everyone in
the SciFi conference, but I can't make my place available.

So, anybody want to play host?  When's a good time?

Just read in the paper today in a very small paragraph - Joel Hodgeson is
going to 'retire' as host on the Satelite of Love to write for the show.
Mike Nelson is to replace him.  

So what do you think of Joel and the Bots without Joel?

response 6 of 131: Mark Unseen   May 16 22:32 UTC 1993

Better than no Bots *and* no Joel.

From what I heard, Joel Hodgson will stay on as a writer/consultant/
whatever.  Good enough, if that's what he wants.  Certainly Mike Nelson
has shown he's a good actor.

I like Joel.  I haven't been watching MST3K for very long, so I'm not
ready to see him replaced.  Sigh.

UGH! Joel is one of the best parts of the show. I don't think the show i'll
do too well without him.......

I dunno... Mike was great as a number of the sketch characters.  I have
fairly high hopes.

I really would miss Joel. I just can't visual`sniff'ize  some other `sniff'
guy taking TomServo over `sniff' that heatduct!!!!! BOO-HOO!!!
I go be sad now.

Remember, though, that's what people said when Josh Weinstein (Dr.
Larry Erhardt, the first voice of Tom Servo) left.  Now people barely
even remember him.

How long has MST3K been in existence?
robh
response 17 of 131: Mark Unseen   Jul 8 04:23 UTC 1993

The first program was broadcast on KTMA-TV in Minneapolis on
Thanksgiving Day, 1988.  The Comedy Channel picked them up the
following fall.

Getting back to the Joel thing.... What's gonna happen to him, (Beside starting
to write for the show)

All they have said is it won't be like "Bewitched".  There *will*
be an explanation on the show for the change.

response 23 of 131: Mark Unseen   Jul 11 13:43 UTC 1993

YES!!! Joel's a survivor.....He's here to stay.
robh
response 24 of 131: Mark Unseen   Jul 12 01:00 UTC 1993

Nope.  The change will be in the twelfth episode of the season, in
October.

For everyone's edification...

July 17th       Hercules
July 24th       Warrior of the Lost World
July 31st       Swamp Diamonds
August 7th      Secret Agent Super Dragon
August 14th     The Magic Voyage of Sinbad
August 21st     Eegah!
August 28th     I Accuse My Parents

Darn it, I deleted the rest of the list.  Anyway, this puts "Mitchell,"
the last Joel episode, on October 2nd.

(skeez, come on, Joel *wants* to leave!  What do you want to do, chain
him to his theater seat?)
