I remember one day hearing my father downstairs laughing his ass off. Went down to see what was so funny to find he had just discovered Mystery Science Theater 3000, and was losing it watching The Giant Gila Monster. I sat down to watch. I didn’t really get it then, but I’ve been a fan ever since.

    Squirm, I think it’s one of the funniest ones, AND it has the short video about coily, the spring sprite. NOOOOOO SPRINGS! BWEEP-BWOOO!

    Space Mutiny and Overdrawn at the Memory Bank are tied for me. They both still absolutely slay me everytime I put them on. Seasonally appropriate too!

    MST3K hasn’t really held up for me. I don’t find it even little-chuckle funny anymore, but I remember Space Mutiny making my teenaged self laugh the hardest.

    P.S. Bill Corbett was the only funny one in the entire history of that show. ducks and runs
