Wow, that's very cool. I've grown less fond of Olbermann over the years, but whatever. This is way too good to pass up.

It bums me out that I don't have cable. Do you think it will be accessible online?

I couldn't stand that arrogant so and so when he first started out (many years ago) but caught some of his NFL highlights this year and he was funny as hell.
I don't know what his shows like, I'll have to look and see if we even get it here.

I'm glad to see I'm not the only person here who doesn't like Olbermann. But I'm glad to see he has a redeeming quality.

Ordinarily I wouldn't watch Olbermann unless forced to at gunpoint. But it's CT, so I can tolerate him for one night.

I don't like the way Olbermann conducts his show (and this is coming from a very liberal guy)... but I've watched enough of him to glean that he's got really nice taste in movies, TV, and books.

Just watched it. He made a couple of show quotes and showed silent clips from the "Manos" episode throughout the interview. There were a couple clips I couldn't place, but from the quality I'm guessing they're from the KTMA era or Season 1.
Joel, Trace, and Josh were, of course, hilarious and the questions were pretty good ones. The overall episode itself was pretty painfully boring, though. I actually began riffing on it myself, tiny Tom Servo in hand.

Fun little interview. Enjoyed watching Keith geek out over the guys. Even Rachel Maddow seemed impressed.

Keith also said, "Time for go to bed," before the commercial break preceding the Titans. He showed clips from "Lost Continent" in addition to "Manos." Hope this brings some new fans to CT. So weird to see East Meets Watts and Alien Factor on mainstream cable TV. Awesome.

According to Satellite News, the Titans' appearance on Countdown precipitated a server crash on the CT website! I take that as a good sign! All of us die-hard MST3K fans instantly jumped on board the Cinematic Titanic. But there have to be a few million people out there who were casual MST3K viewers who may not have been aware of CT. I'm a huge liberal but I would readily admit that Keith Olbermann can be over-the-top. (As far as MSNBC goes, Rachel Maddow is my personal favorite.) But I'm glad that the MST3K folks generally shy away from most political topics. I think J. Elvis pointed this out during the interview last night. And I also seem to recall that Kevin Murphy said something similar in an interview on one of the recent MST3K DVDs. Kevin said that they keep away from politics and just "make with the funny." And being a liberal doesn't make me like Mike Nelson any less since he is known to be conservative. A well-read and informed conservative, I might add, which is always a good thing! The occasional rare riff at the expense of well-known liberals and conservatives can always illicit a good laugh. This is because all of the MST3K alumni are so good at pulling it off. They always move on, keep the show entertaining, and just "make with the funny."
