I couldn't wait to watch Operation Double 007. I had heard nothing but good about it from friends and fellow MSTies. I finnally watched it on youtube and boy was it a let down. I didn't laugh once. Has this happened to anyone else?

For me Laserblast and Zombie Nightmare. They were good eps, but they did not live up to the hype, that I had gotten from my friends who watch the show.

Godzilla vs Megalon
Back when I started getting into the show, this episode seemed to be hyped even more than it is now, and it was one of the first I bought. It's not bad at all, but it's not anywhere near one of my favorites. Just a run-of-the-mill, solid episode.

As Ray said, Zombie Nightmare--it just didn't appeal that much to me. Kind of left me cold and depressed. And also, for me, Manos and Space Mutiny. I probably won't watch the former again for a long time--it left me creeped out and kind of depressed (although I will watch the host segments--those I loved). Space Mutiny was OK, but it is a favorite of one of my students, who was jonesing for me to watch it. When I did, I...wasn't that wowed by it. Oh, and I don't care for Manhunt in Space. Wasn't very funny to me. But it's all good. I certainly don't begrudge others who love these.

The FUGITIVE ALIEN flicks get a lot of love, it seems. I never cared for them. The movies themselves are boring and hard to follow, and the riffing is just average.
The flip side of this topic would be equally interesting: MSTied movies that fans generally DON'T like that you do. For me, HELLCATS is one of those. Everyone seems to hate that episode, but it's one of my favorites. Likewise, CASTLE OF FU MANCHU.

For me it would have to be Riding With Death. It gets tons of hype and I never really liked it all that much.
On the flipside of that, as mrmeadows said, The Unearthly gets a lot of bad hype and that is one of my favorites. It's one of the episodes that got me hooked on the show.

For me the episode that falls into this category is Puma Man. When I first came on the board, everyone seemed to gush over it. But this one just has never done it for me.

If I ever see Colossus and the Headhunters again, it will be too soon...

Final Sacrifice. Let the stoning commence but it was merely a good episode and nothing more but reading the hype before I saw it you'd think it was the televisual equivalent of the Michelangelo's David.

You just don't get it, because you're Scottish.
And drunk!
(it's an American vs. Canadian thing, I guess...)

Never could get through "Escape 2000" and don't really like "Pod People" and "Cave Dwellers" all that much, compared to the love they tend to inspire.

You just don't get it, because you're Scottish. And drunk! (it's an American vs. Canadian thing, I guess...) oh I get it, we've got our rivalry with the English. And the Welsh. And the Irish. And the Germans, in fact most of Europe, Asia... Personally I just didn't find them repeatedly saying Rowsdower over and over again as funny as they seemed to find it. As I said, it's a good episode, just not a great one. |

I'm with Trumpy on FINAL SACRIFICE. Okay episode, but I don't get why it's held in such high regard.

I don't like Pod People. It just drags on and on and on.
