I've not been able to watch that yet, but I really, really look forward to it. And them finally getting to Alpha Centauri? For some reason this is a spoiler I'm fine with. I'm glad to know.

BTW, I watched the little 30 sec Shout! trailer, and I didn't mind the voices except Gypsy. Her new bot body was okay, although looked extra cheap to me. The thing that got me though was at no point in the little trailer were they funny. The trailer was just three bots/people saying watch our new show without any character or anything. Meh. That's unfortunate. Granted, one might argue that a commercial's main job is to tell people to watch, but MST3K usually does a good job of bringing the character and charm to remind people *why* they should watch

BOOOOO! Welcome, my fellow spooky friends! It's been so hard for me to get into the spiiiiiriiiiit of Halloween this year, what with how much it felt like July and August thanks to the one-two punch of Global Warming and La Nina, but now that we've got a week until Halloween and now that the temperature suddenly crashed down into the forties where I am, I'm proud to announce the I have a headache! A headache and THE HALLOWEEN SPIRIT! This year, I am The Ghost of the One Man Band, haunting the hallway right outside your bedroom at about 4:10 AM every morning. Are those footsteps you hear, accompanied by the honk of a horn and rhythmic pound of a drum at every step? Probably not, the guy with footfalls like that died thirteen years ago. Thirteen Years Ago Tonight

I don't often share Brian David Gilbert videos here as much as I love them, but something about the video he released today, "Lay All Your Love On Me, performed by a vampire", felt... appropriate to the forum.
According to his Twitter account, he's got the "rest of the Aaah!BBA" album uploading tomorrow, too.

My *hope* is that it's still out there in a form that we can get to someday. But, well, "I'll believe it when I see it" is extra true in this case. If a person claims to have found it, great! I look forward to their YouTube upload.

I'm in the opposite category, I think. I love the storylines and host segments that come from them, and the lore than can build from episode to episode even if at the end it's just a show and we shouldn't worry too much about such things. Different strokes, though

Going lighter on the edits is something I very much want. I'm in favor of editing things for content (MST3K's always had a kind of "family friendly swears" level of language, which I appreciate, and it's let them dodge some bullets like with Sidehackers) but just cutting things to fit a certain timeframe never sat with me. And frankly, the edits for time made to, for instance, This Island Earth actually make it a worse movie. So hopefully without network restrictions and such we can actually get movies that last the intended length (plus whatever MST3K gives them.)

It's just not worth the risk. Please get your shot if you can. This really should be the tl;dr of the last 15 months. We can put political stances aside long enough to tend to our own health. If politics won't even let us treat our health situation it's time to- Nope. Nope, almost got pulled into that thought cycle there, gonna shut up now.

I hate when I'm reading or watching TV at night and I'm getting tired and think, "Oh, okay, I guess I'll go to bed." Then I get ready for bed, change into my pajamas, wash my face, brush my teeth and hop into bed --- only to be not tired anymore and toss and turn. Welp, time to get up again. Grrr. I have a problem I hate that feels related. I genuinely can't seem to fall asleep without occupying my brain with a book or something these days, but unless I hit just the right sweet spot of tiredness to activity I either stay awake forever, or I wind up doing weird things to the books I'm reading or my phone (throwing 'em, dropping it in a page-crumpling fashion, etc.) A mild issue, sure, but oh it vexes me so...

Well, that's what happens when you betray the Enterprise crew. Grounded for life! I'm super bad at placing actor names to faces, and I've never been in the mood to seek out the Kim Cattrall movies Crow discusses, but looking up her and Star Trek finally gives me a face to go with the name, so thank you for this comment.

Emily is the best host because she's the only one that hasn't made a bad episode. There's a certain irrefutable logic to this that makes me giddy

In their defense, staying cultured and alternative can be challenging... fortunately, PBS keeps it highbrow!

The Steam Summer Sale this year has a vague little "Choose Your Own Adventure" style game with a bunch of little single-choice mini adventures in it. If you go to the Mystery Of Spider Cave section (the Horror games section), it references one of my favorite riffs from This Island Earth. EDIT: The image kept breaking and being problematic, but fortunately proboards makes it easy to post Twitter links instead... For comparison... Nothin' too fancy, but it was a fun surprise.

I recently discovered MST3K on the Roku channel, if you happen to have a Roku device. Not exactly "broadcasting" per se, but it's streaming in a quasi-free manner there.

Unfortunately, I ran into some complications while trying to watch it from work. I don't have a Hulu account, and signing up for a free trial seemed to really confuse the streaming process, so I eventually gave it up after a bit. You're right. Money Plane is the best option. Hey, once a gambling man, always a gambling man...
