It looked unlikely for awhile, but we may just surpass $60k today!

Well, today ended fairly well. 64k, pulled nearly even with Saturday and beat the important 60k mark.

Day 6: Half-life streak broken! We finished today closing in on $60,000, which is down a very awesome 8% from yesterday. Good job, MSTies! Now let's keep it up! We also crossed the 90% mark and are currently nearing $1.82 million. We're so close we can taste those three episodes!
The weekdays start again tomorrow. It could mean nothing, it could mean everything. We'll have to wait and see. I'm going to guess a modest $40,000 for tomorrow, based on absolutely nothing. It's possible that we've reached a steady progression, but it's also possible that today was a fluke. If we have reached a steady progression, then the six episode run has a shot.
Per day average stats for each goal as of today: Three Episodes - $7,500 (looking good) Six Episodes - $60,000 Nine Episodes - $105,000 Twelve Episodes - $150,000

Kickstarter Update confirming what's already been circulating for awhile: Jonah Ray is Joel's choice for host (as "Jonah Heston").

A yellow jumpsuit? This should be interesting.

I guess I should show YouTube some love for helping to create new MSTies. Let's hope they get to the funding level for 12 episodes.

Not only has Jonah been announced but Joel is pushing us to get past the $2 million mark by tomorrow by offering three free downloads of classic MST episodes. So far the plan seems to be working because we spiked HARD after the update. We're currently closing in on 1.9 million!

Nice to see the announcements coming down! I'm sure Jonah will do a fine job, very interested to see how this goes.
Sounds like it's just a matter of time before Felicia Day is announced as the mad. I saw several members over at mst3kinfo.com were hoping for Milana Vayntrub - one of Joel's costars on Other Space - as the new mad. I think she'd be a good choice, too, but seeing her name made me think of another Other Space alum. Bess Rous played a really mean character on that show, and she has hair like Sideshow Bob. She would be a great choice, but who knows if she'd even be interested.
Day will fill the role nicely, though, no doubt.

I just has that same thought this weekend (while watching Other Space). Her character on Other Space is practically a Mad already--mean, but comically flawed.

Even though my money is tighter I chose to back to the NYC premiere level. I can't imagine a more cool vacation than this. That's what I'm in for too. I'll see you there!

Maybe we can have a little get together if a decent number of board members show. If not, maybe a drink. Or some paint thinner.

As far as cast members... if Joel wants 'em, I do too. Easy enough.

I just has that same thought this weekend (while watching Other Space). Her character on Other Space is practically a Mad already--mean, but comically flawed. Exactly. She just has that look. And she has a pretty good range. The scene where Trace's character Art gets thrown off the ship, she goes from hyper-mean to suddenly, dramatically concerned. It's actually quite moving. I thought she was great on Other Space. Too bad that show won't be coming back.

If Felicia Day is cast as a mad, that would be very cool! From what I've seen of her work, she'd be perfect.
Incidentally, I haven't posted here in a billion years. Howdy, y'all!

Yay for old faces!
I just upped my pledge to $200, which was the maximum I was willing to go if I could afford it. But if it means helping us achieve this goal, I'm willing to down it now and manage later if I find I can't spring it.
