Ah, but my friend - tiered watch times mean you get to watch 3 movies with friends! Triple the fun!

True. Could even expand to have each region choose their own movie, but if it suits other regions everyone can join? Multi movie mid may mania

Let’s go bananas! We can’t expect our amazing hosts to give us something live EVERY weekend. … Can we? 
Maybe if we were to lock them up in a moon base…

One thing I would say based on the last fan organised watchalong , there was a bit of ‘well this movie always shows up’ , so I’d like to see more obscure episodes up for voting , as we are likely to see more popular episodes appearing as live event options anyway.

If we wanted to use Turkey Day as a barometer of what episodes have been featured more than others, there’s a thread for that:

Ooh, good call. I haven’t actually hosted any kind of viewing party and have no idea what I’m doing, I’m just really enjoying breaking up the pandemic monotony with a MST3K event once every few weeks (or more frequently if possible)! I hadn’t really thought about people getting fussy about it since the goal was just to have a little fun as a community.

The fun part will be when the Screening Bunker upgrades are finished and everyone will be able to set up their own private watch parties inside the Gizmoplex.

The impromptu gathering for City Limits went exceptionally well. I would totally be down for another!

Ever so slightly less than impromptu since we’re talking about like 3 weeks out, but… Adult spontaneity ftw…? O_o

Which vault pick are we watching together next week, MSTIES?

I vote Pod People, only because I remember a few of us wondered about a tribute episode of its own in the live thread.
That, and there’s plenty of flying over trout with the wind in your eyes, while searching for a clown in the sky. I heard it stinks!

Pod People is a legendary episode and a sentimental favorite. It was the very first one I watched, after all!
I would totally be in favor!

Second one here, after Alien from L.A.!
And it was something of a chunk of time after that one. I caught Alien from L.A. on MTV’s Comedy Weekend promo event (purely by accident), and after everything I read about this series that I wanted to see, I FREAKED OUT.
I caught Pod People by accident, too, thanks to some late-night channel surfing and landing on a local Fox affiliate that happened to be playing the Mystery Science Theater Hour. Again, predictably, I FREAKED OUT.
Soft spot for both of them.

I had a similar experience but I don’t know what the actual episode was because I came across it in the middle of it. It was airing on Wisconsin PBS and I tried so hard to find it or figure out if it would be back the following week but that was before we had THE INTERNET 
I know I started watching it when it was still on Comedy Central and I was all in when it came to Sci-Fi, never missing an episode. I sat there every week and recorded it on VHS, which is such a quaint idea these days. So thankful for the livestreams and The Gizmoplex so I can finally fill in any episodes I may have missed over the years.

Why not something less famous?
