I’ve been ludicrously busy IRL and not had time to visit the forums as much as I had in times past.
Despite that, I still found time to write this piece about MST3K, its history and its influence.
Enjoy it, won’t you?

If nothing else, Comedy Central might not still be around if it wasn’t for MST3K carrying the network on its broad red jumpsuited shoulders through the early years.

Ah, the early years of Comedy Central- Night After Night With Alan Havey, Alan King’s Inside the Comedy Mind, Comics Only, not to mention Short Attention Span Theater featuring a guy some of you might have heard of named Jon Stewart.

I liked Comedy Central most from that MST3K time period, when they were doing, y’know, comedy. Oddball things like “Limboland” and (the recently resuscitated?) “Almost Live”.

I don’t think so. My Googling says a sort of successor came and went a few years ago.

Some of the cast started a radio show or podcast recently? I think? Maybe?

I hope you’re right because I loved Almost Live. I’ll look later.

Hey, it’s got a rating of EIGHT (out of 10, even!) on IMDB.
90 people agree: This show is a solid B-!
