I don't find this funny. Work on it. Bite me, Albert.

He was on Shokus Radio today, and about 7 minutes before the show ended, I got a call-in and asked him if he ever had seen the "Bill Mumy" tribute on MST3K. He said that he was aware he'd been referenced on MST, and was honored about it, but he had never seen that particular segment before. The radio host suggested he could probably see it on YouTube, and then rushed me off the line, because they had to go to commercial. The show will rebroadcast Thusday, Friday, and Saturday 4 PM - 6PM Pacific time. My call in would be about 5:40 or a little later. www.shokusradio.com

Paul Chaplin's voice reminds me of Donald Sutherland's.

Is there a comprehensive list of everyone given a writing credit during the show's run? I tend to forget that the Rifftrax/CT/mst3k.com crews weren't the only writers on the show. www.mst3kinfo.com/ward_e/listcred.html

I think I read somewhere that Mary Jo and Coleen are good friends. So I guess mary Jo would be the one to ask on Coleen.

Walt, for awhile, believed that hangin with the "others" wasn't such a bad thing.

Can't wait til this ends up on Rifftracks.
I hope BBI got some kind of ridisuals for the "What do you do with those Hobgoblins" bit.
The music itself sounds like a creepy mixture of 007 and Pink Panther.

This is "XerxesTheCat", but under a new name. I am still continuing my reviews, so don't worry. Here's 204.
204- Catalina Caper.
Plot: Some sailor guy tries to steal some scroll. meanwhile beach dances and musical numbers pad out the rest of the film. Running gag of some dorky cop trying to spy on all the characters. Stars Tommy Kirk, Del Moore, Robert Donner, and LITTLE RICHARD!
Host Segments: Opening: The Bots send their prayers to many other robots including R2-D2 and RoboCop. Invention Exchange: Tank Tops, Tickle Bazooka Segment 1: Joel explains the 60s. Segemnt 2: Servo sings, "Creepy Girl". Segment 3: Frank's tupperware party. Closing: Joel explains the movie.
Memorable riffs: Joel: "Jacques Cousteau meets the Pink Panther."
Joel: "Heyy... nice railing."
Guy: "Let's dig Little Richard, really turn it on!" Crow: "Little Richard? I hate impressionists!" Servo: "No, you're thinking of Rich Little."
(guy dances wildly) Joel: "Is there a history of epilepsy in your family?"
Crow: "Little Richard, the only genuine talent in this film."
Scuba Diver: "Bottoms up!" Crow: "He's always saying that. We don't know why."
Crow: "Wet Side Story!"
Crow: "Hey, she lost the bone in her neck!"
Crow: "He's kinda caught between a rock and a hard pl--" *Servo coughs*
Del: "They should be coming up soon." Crow: "What, our lunch?"
Fav. Riff: Servo (singing): "There's a concept, it's called harmonyyyyyy."
Comments: -Katrina, aka, Creepy Girly, kinda makes me think she could pass off as a young Rhea Perlman.
-I'm watching this episode on a DVD-ROM, and with the screen enlarged, I just now noticed that the shadowrama is cut off on the right side of the screen. It looks quite jarring.
-The way Del Moore speaks, I can't help but think of Paul Lynde.
-Throughout this episode, Crow keeps trying to throw in the "By this time my lungs were aching for air." A throwback to 201- Rocketship XM. A reference to Lloyd Bridges.
-This movie is billed as a comedy, but to be honest, there really aren't any funny bits in it. The only intentionally funny moments are Robert Donner's scenes. The rest, just seem like regular beach scenes.
-Depending on whenever that bozo sent Kevin that "I HATE TOM SERVO'S NEW VOICE!" banner, I'm sure he had to have felt like eating crow (bird crow, not robot Crow) after hearing the Creepy Girl song. Now Josh was great and all, and I like his Servo voice, but there's just no way he could have pulled off the Creepy Girl song the way Kevin does.
-About 56 minutes in, Crow asks what happend to the treasure hunt, and Joel informs him that the movie's only "half over" and maybe they'll get back to it. Actually, by this time the movie's about a third of the way over.
-Carol Conners is the worst lip-syncher I've ever seen in my life.
-What kind of name is "Fingers O'Toole"? Really.
Best Segment: "Creepy Giiiiirl. Won't you be mi-i-ine? I'll give you scrolls and fish and tinkertoys, and wi-i-ii-ne!" Worst segment: Segment 3 is REALLLLLLL-LLLLLY baaaaaaad. One of only a few MST3K segments that just isn't worth your time watching.
Overall: A pretty good episode, with a fairly watchable movie. Good riffing, and some nice host segments. Rating: ***
