I know they covered it in the riffing, but really... Advanced alien civilization with interstellar travel and everything. (They're siphoning off vast amounts of electricity using induction and the power company never notices the drop in voltage or increase in usage, but never mind that.) Not only is their entire base of operations (the last hope of saving their entire species) utterly dependent on the power lines, but an 8 second brownout is enough to overload their systems (which are operating off a fraction of the power produced by one plant) causing a gigantic nuclear explosion. They don't have a reactor of their own, but cutting off the power produces a bigger disaster than a nuclear meltdown. And Peter Graves, without knowing anything about their technology, is able to figure that out with a pencil and a slide rule.

What, in your opinion, was the single darkest riff of MST3k's entire run?

For me, it is the 1st season references to a certain scene in Alfred Hitchcock's Frenzy:

"Love-ly. LOVE-LY!!!"

Yes, I know, it's September...but I'm just starting to get hyped for the spooky season. And I was just wondering: if there was any other spooky movie they haven't done that you think Mike or Joel should have done, what would it be? I'd go with Roger Corman's Little Shop of Horrors. As a huge fan of Little Shop, to begin with, I can just see some good stuff being said. It has been on Rifftrax, but I'd love to see a wrench put on it and say...Joel could riff it. I'd love to see what his delivery could bring to the table.

Having commented on a few threads over the last few years about the frenetic and terribly paced riffs from the reboot of MST3K.made me appreciate just how nearly perfect the Guys paced Night of the Blood Beast...was re-watching it early this morning and was totally further reminded of and in awe of what they accomplished. If there is a better sample, I'm not aware of it. The riffs are so spot on, never talking over the Movie dialogue and showing more respect to a Corman movie than it probably deserves. The new cast should use this shining example[assuming they are still moving forward with more Experiments] as a guide of just how to do it! Anyone else have a certain Experiment that gives them that warm and fuzzy feeling?

Are there specific times and places that you associate with certain episodes? Sunday night is always a "Screaming Skull night, and the Giant of Marathon (Film Crew) is what I often have on when I'm doing home repairs.

One bottle of bourbon, someone close to me, and 3 episodes of MST3k. It's been too long since I've even watched the show with anyone. It's also been too long since I've participated in the forum. So hello! And konnichiwa.

What movies would you like to see the show tackle in a future episode?

I'd LOVE for Jonah and the bots to riff Yor, the Hunter From the Future. It has Reb Brown from Space Mutiny, that alone would make for a great episode.

If they were to make a movie about MST3K, which actor and actresses would like to portray our heroes.

Which KTMA ep would you most like see riffed in later seasons and which trio would you like doing the riffing? Choose ones not reriffed already in later eps and feel free to choose multiple eps and trios(I like the word trio).
