It's not been what I expected....

[Humbledstone]

I had high expectations for this Kickstarter, and specifically this new season. I was really excited to have not only more MST3K, but a new home. I was excited for a new host, new puppeteers for Crow and Servo, a new feel and continuation of the wacky world MST3K has created with it’s SOL.

I had really high expectations…

And those expectations have been exceeded ten fold.

I love how season 13 has been spread out throughout this year. I love the Discourse channel, the live events, the fellow Mysties. It’s been a blast! It’s made 2022 one of the best years in a while.

Thank you for everyone involved in backing MST3K and everyone who is involved with making this possible.

Ohhhhh, you so got meeeee, ya rascal!

Also, there’s a discord?! What do all you jokers get up to in there?

[Humbledstone]

Discourse, the forums we are currently in

[LadyShelley]

Ya know, you keep giving @ivan @timryder @mattmcg22 everyone else a heart attack, we won’t get the rest of that season 13.

[Amanda_Gregory]

Ah, m’bad. Though not really too disappointed, I find discord chats with a bunch of people really hard to keep up with. Forums are at a nice speed.

[Amanda_Gregory]

Okay, but if you’re going to bait-and-switch, this is the better way to do it for sure.

My 2022 has been rough, and this Discourse and the new episodes and events have been such a wonderful bright spot, and knowing how much more there is to look forward to makes my black little heart happy. Y’all are the best, S13 has been a blast so far, and as excited as I was when I backed the Kickstarter, I’m even more pumped to see what else is in store!

[Amanda_Gregory]

Gosh, SAME. MST3K both show and community have been a huge bright spot when stuff is otherwise kinda rough. I hope things get better in your 2022.

[NotTVsFrank]

There is a Discord, FYI. I don’t this is official in any way, but there’s definitely a MST3K Discord out there somewheres.

[Amanda_Gregory]

True, true. There are certainly facebook groups, would make sense that some MSTies made a discord at some point too.

Same, same, same.

Not exactly the best of years, but everything with this new iteration of MST3K - Season 13, the Gizmoplex, the live events, this Discourse, all-a-y’all - has made things a bit of incredible. Much better than I could have anticipated.

Credit and thanks where they’re due.

All of us mushy buggers here on the forums:

I think season 13 has been pretty amazing too. The staff has really improved on the dynamics from seasons 11 & 12. The selection of movies is strong!

I have mixed feelings on not being able to binge watch season 13 like the Netflix episodes. While I am eager to see them, perhaps slowing things down and making us wait for new episodes is a good thing.

[Humbledstone]

I’m flattered that my opinion could give heart attacks lol. Rest assured, my love for MST3K isn’t faltered, it’s deepened for sure.

[Humbledstone]

I agree! There is an unofficial MST3K discord channel rolling around somewhere.

I don’t think it’s moderated but it does have the shared rooms to do video and audio chat.

I like the one-episode-at-a-time thingamajig for keeping us all on the same page (more or less). This kind of episode release system will do a lot to facilitate better discussions, I think.

[Amanda_Gregory]

I’m enjoying the release schedule a whole lot, it lets me make an event out of the evening and I look forward to it all week. But I’m also still isolating due to covid, so my lifetime excitement at the moment is MST3K, D&D, and occasional curbside errands.

THISSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

There’s prep involved and it’s something to look forward to, and that’s just boss.

It’s like watching the Sci-Fi Channel run of episodes when they premiered, and I was all, “All right, gotta figure out snacks for this and make this a THING!”
