That Premise Looks Familiar…

Posted by Sampo, on February 10th, 2012

We probably should note that two imitations of MST3K are up on the Web:

WNYC’s nationally syndicated public radio show “On The Media” is back doing more “Media Scrutiny Theater.”

Two notes:
First, a request: some of the things they are riffing on are political commercials. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE post any politics comments THERE, not here. Thank you.
Second, full disclosure: “On the Media” host Bob Garfield is pal of mine (he was offended last time when I called him an “acquaintance”).

And for you wrestling fans, there’s “Are You Serious?” Get this: “From underneath Titan Tower, Road Dogg and Josh Mathews are forced to watch some of the most appalling, unpleasant and dreadful clips found in the WWE video library.”
I am hearing positive reviews from wrestling fans. I am not a wrestling fan, and they lost me in about five minutes. Too many inside reference for the casual viewer. Your mileage may vary.

Weekend Discussion Thread: MST3K Monopoly? And more?

Posted by Sampo, on February 4th, 2012

Alert reader Trevor asks:

Have you ever noticed how many different editions of Monopoly there are? Wouldn’t it be cool if there was a MST3K one?

Yes, it would! Maybe the spaces would be movies? Let’s hear your ideas. He also asks…

What products (besides t-shirts) would other MSTies like to have a MST3K version of?

Lots of budding entrepreneurs are listening….
