Recent sets haven't been hitting any of my wish list episodes at all*, which is a bit of a letdown, but at the same time I'm very excited to see four episodes that I've never ever seen! Especially the rare and elusive Gorgo.
I know I could easily watch any and all episodes I have never seen on YouTube, but I've chosen to abstain from doing that so the DVD sets are more exciting. So instead, I only watch the episodes I saw when the series was airing, what I have on official DVDs, and episodes I've taped on VHS.
---
* the remaining Volume 9 episodes as Shout Select titles, The Amazing Colossal Man, Hercules and the Captive Women, Hercules, Invasion of the Neptune Men, The Pumaman, The Screaming Skull, Quest of the Delta Knights, Track of the Moon Beast, Squirm, Diabolik

Wow. Great set! Never thought I'd see #111 released. Or Gorgo. Always wondered why that one was aired only twice. It was my understanding that the flick was PD.

Holy sh*t...HOLY SH*T! Not only did they break Warner...Gorgo? GORGO? The episode that was pulled after two airings because of disputes over the movie?
Daaaaaaaayuuuuuumn! Shout is amazing. I shall worship them forever.
This most likely means we'll have the entirety of season one on DVD eventually, since the rest are Warner episodes. Sure Women of the Prehistoric Planet wasn't exactly a legal release, but still...

Thrilled to see Moon Zero Two get a release - I love that season one episode. It's pretty amazing to see what Shout! has been able to accomplish. I'm very impressed.

This looks like a good set. I've never seen The Leech Woman, and I've only seen the others once. I'm excited!

Not a huge fan of the episodes here, but the fact that Moon Zero Two is here makes me excited that The Painted Hills could show up on a later set. Underrated episode, that one is.

Don't wanna be "that guy" but here goes. Not a huge fan of the set, but really happy about the possibilities this set hopefully foretells. Glad 111 - Moon Zero Two is coming out... mostly because I have purchased and traded for this episode several times and none of them are in great condition. Of course, its hard to know if the commercial release will be in good condition or not. 802 - Leech Woman has quickly become one of my new favorites... "Neal! Neal!!!" 422 - The Day the Earth Froze, I know has been on several people's most wanted list. Understandably so, cause its a solid episode. But here's the kicker. I completely understand the excitement about 909 - Gorgo for licensing reasons and the fact of its rare airing... and I've stated on this forum many times: I love every episode of MST3k for one reason or another... but I've watched Gorgo at least two dozen times and just can't get into it. It is easily my least favorite episode.
But, its all MST3k... I'll buy it. Doesn't matter how "good" or "bad" the sets are, cause its my favorite show. Period.
And I think the bigger and maybe stranger thing is there are 2 great episodes as bonuses! What's that all about? If for some wacky reason you don't have Mitchell or The Brain That Wouldn't Die, that is a huge bonus! I'd like to see Eegah! as a bonus, cause I hate the Rhino disc. Mine is screwy for some reason.

What a great set lineup, I love Day the Earth Froze and Leech Woman. Gorgo is good and I have never seen Zero Two. I also assume Mitchell and Brain bonus disk is the shout website exclusive. For those who dont have those two episodes, go for it!
Shout Factory just keeps delivering for us fans, I love it.

3 episodes I don't have (though I've seen 2 of them years ago).
The Mitchell/Brain That Wouldn't Die bonus - is it a Shout! exclusive? Is it on every release? Will there be a featurette about the Joel to Mike transition!?

There will also be a bonus disc with 512- “Mitchell” and 513- “The Brain That Wouldn’t Die.” So they're releasing two episodes on one disc? Is this the first time they're releasing two on a disc? Just curious if that could theoretically mean they'd start releasing more episodes at a time. Probably not, but still. Also for anybody into the numbers this means that every season will now be at least 50% released.

I just remembered that it's the 30th anniversary of MST3K, probably accounting for the addition of two out-of-print special episodes as extras.
