15 Most Disturbing Host Segments

Rob Bricken at I09 has a list of the 15 most disturbing host segments.

He missed this one, a personal fave:

CONvergence Reports?

Bill and Kevin were guests at last weekend’s CONvergence in Bloomington, Minn.

Here’s an open thread for reports/links to photos of what Kevin and Bill were up to.

Weekend Discussion Thread: Characters from MSTed Movies You’d Like to Follow on Social Media

Alert reader Ken, aka Dr. Erikson, writes to say:

Among MST’d characters, who would you most likely connect with or follow on social media?
For instance, I think Torgo might have a great Facebook page, with lots of repetitive updates (“It’ll be dark soon”), odd likes (International Satyr Society) and grainy photos – probably mostly of women who didn’t know he was taking them.
Gloria Henderson could really keep you abreast of the latest happenings in porn if you followed her on Twitter: “Hot new smut picture out today – and brother I mean hot!”
And Henry Krasker’s Linkedin page would probably be interesting: “Inventor, criminologist, metaphysician. Currently self-employed and seeking investors for my Buried Alive Coffin Alarm (patent pending). Detective Lewis endorses Krasker’s, how-you-say… methods.”

I think Derek, the sensitive teen alien from “Teenagers from Outer Space,” would have a Facebook page full of entertainingly morose poetry.

Who’s your pick?
