MST3K Prints is back in business

Our pal Jean Jackson who’s spent the last few minutes moving her “MST3K Prints” online store from a personal web site to an ebay store, has completed the move and is once again advertising with us. See the ad at the right. Great stuff, and great gifts for the MSTies in your life!

Weekend Discussion Thread: Favorite Gypsy Moments

I can’t believe we didn’t do this one, but it’s not on the list, as alert reader Matthew notes:

After rewatching The Unearthly for the featured episode, I found myself laughing hard at the ‘Appreciating Gypsy’ host segment. It got me thinking about what other Gypsy moments were so funny and which Gypsy moments do other MSTies find funny. My contribution is her telephone song (“I wish I had a thing with a thing on it and one of my friends would chat with MEEEE!”).

My favorite moment can be summed up in three words: “Gypsy crushes Joel!”

Weekend Discussion Group: Stuff You Have Memorized

We looked the episode featuring the classic short “Mr. B. Natural” this week, and several commenters, along with yours truly, admitted that we have the damn thing memorized. I would love to get a several thousand MSTies in a room and show them that one. I bet nearly all of them could recite at least parts of it — including the voices!

So this week’s question from me is: What bits, songs, chunks of episodes or entire episodes do you have memorized? And are there any stories that go with why you’ve committed them to memory?

Me personally, there are big chunks of “Manos” I know by heart — and how sad is that?? And I know the words to a LOT of the songs by heart, largely because in the ’90s I had a set of cassette tapes I’d thrown together that contained songs and musical sections from the movies, that I played in my car constantly.

What about you?
