How about TV Series that deserve a commentary track.
Some may be aware that riffing TV shows instead of movies was an idea put forward by Comedy Central in the latter days. BBI rejected it, but I always thought it might work. More recently, RiffTrax has done tracks for “Lost” and “Gray’s Anatomy,” (and they worked well!) so I think my feeling’s been justified.
I’ve recently been watching “Downton Abbey” and “Game of Thrones” on DVD and I think both would be a great basis for hilarious commentary tracks.
What TV show would you suggest?

Posted by Sampo, on April 2nd, 2013  MALAGA, SPAIN — Jesús “Jess” Franco, Spanish film director, writer, cinematographer and actor, died in a hospital here April 2 after suffering a stroke. He was 82.
His career took off in 1961 with his cult classic “The Awful Dr. Orloff.” Other films that were released in the U.S. included “Necronomicon” (1967), “Ninety-Nine Women” (1968). Later in his career he moved to France in order to make adult films and very violent horror films.
MSTies will surely never forget his 1968 opus, featured in episode 323- THE CASTLE OF FU MANCHU.
There’s an obit here, but it’s in Spanish.

The sneak peak of the ‘Manos’ game was awesome! Which other eps would be great as a video game, and what kind? I could see ‘Lost Continent’ as a platformer (I know, collective groan), or ‘Delta Knights’ as an action RPG, Zelda-style. Or not.
I am not really a gamer, but it seems like “Being from Another Planet” could easily be adapted into a first-person shooter.
What would your pick be?
