• “Stuffing vs. Potatoes”–701(TD)- NIGHT OF THE BLOOD BEAST: Some, or perhaps many of you, haven’t seen this version of this episode (it was only shown twice). But for me it really is the one standout segment. Witty and silly at the same time
• Crow reads a trashy romance novel to a medicated Pearl–703- DEATHSTALKER AND THE WARRIORS FROM HELL: “I dreamed a gold man was reading to me from a dirty book.” Great stuff.
• Dr. F. leads a focus group–704- THE INCREDIBLE MELTING MAN: Brilliant, a chance for the Brains to express their frustration with the focus group process that contributed to making MST3K the Movie less than it could have been.
• With the SOL heading toward a black hole, Mike undergoes a terrifying but useful transformation!–706- LASERBLAST: All the segments in this final Comedy Central episode are great, but Mike’s bizarre unexplained ability to suddenly “be” somebody else is use to wonderful effect.
• The SOL reaches the edge of the universe and its inhabitants become beings of pure energy! Meanwhile, Dr. F. becomes unstuck in time, has a revelation and is reborn–706- LASERBLAST: Bittersweet and oh-so-funny.
Least fave: Crow wants Mike and Tom to sing “Hang down your head, Tom Dewey”–702- THE BRUTE MAN: These sketches where one character thinks something is funny, but it isn’t, were usually just not funny.
