A Tribute To MST3K
MST3K Ring a bell? How about Myster Science Theatre 3000?.... No?... Figures, the only person that I know that knows MST3K is my roommate. The rest of you nerds are missing out on one freakin' hilarious show. If my sources are correct, MST3K was played on Comedy Central and the SciFi Channel.
MST3K is a show that was put together in Minnesota. The show is about a guy named Joel who is on this space ship along with his robot pals, Crow (a bird with a weird head) and Tom Servo (A gumball machine) They sit and watch these old cheesy movies and make fun of them. The theme song pretty much tells the whole story, so I will post that here:
In the not-too-distant future--
Next Sunday A.D.--
There was a guy named Joel,
Not too different from you or me.
He worked at Gizmonic Institute,
Just another face in a red jumpsuit.
He did a good job cleaning up the place,
But his bosses didn't like him
So they shot him into space.
We'll send him cheesy movies,
The worst we can find (la-la-la).
He'll have to sit and watch them all,
And we'll monitor his mind (la-la-la).
Now keep in mind Joel can't control
Where the movies begin or end (la-la-la)
Because he used those special parts
To make his robot friends.
Robot Roll Call: (Let's go!)
Cambot! (Pan left!)
Gypsy! (Hi, girl!)
Tom Servo! (What a cool guy!)
Croooow! (What a wisecracker!)
If you're wondering how he eats and breathes
and other science facts (la la la),
Then repeat to yourself, "It's just a show,
I should really just relax
For Mystery Science Theater 3000!"
They also changed the lyrics when Joel left the show in 1996, and Mike came onboard, but to be honest Joel is the more funny of the two.
Once you have seen this great and hilarious show, you may want to buy your own set. If you do, I recommend you to Go Here. I MUST recommend two movies, Cave Dwellers and Pod People. They are so far the best ones ever made, my friends who have never heard of them were rolling on the ground laughing!
There is also episodes of MST3K at blockbuster.... Go Here
