I was just currently looking through my MST3K merchandise catalog and looking for ways to productively waste my paycheck, spending left and right on scrapbook tapes and space mutiny t-shirts, and I came across this video here. This is supposedly raw footage of their last episode shoot. Does anyone own or have an opinion on this particular video? Is it worth getting you think? Any feedback would be much appreciated....

I reviewed it on my web page. In a word, it's horrible!
It simply shows take after take after take of them filming the host segment. Dull doesn't being to describe it. For example, one interesting thing is watching Murph get fitted in his Bobo makeup. But it goes on and on and soon even that puts you into snorsville. Now, had someone taken this footage and worked it into a documenatry it would have been great.
But there's no teary goodbyes, no reflection on the show as a whole and the repeated takes become tedious. Beez's smiling face is the only thing worth watching after a while.
Unless your a diehard completest, your money is best spent on the Scrapbook tape or Assignment Venezeula or Crow's "You Know You Want Me Baby" T-Shirt.

Look, I'm currently in the middle of a move. I have no job. I'm not moving anywhere near a job. I'm a college student. Gas prices, while on a decline, are still fairly hefty. I've yet to purchase a GameCube or any MST3K dvds this month. Just "buy one?" Surely you jest.

It seems the eye-rolling smilie ( : did not convey the intended humor. Try re-reading my previous post, but use one of these: ;D That should do it. No worries.

Well then, quit fartingaround and just buy one! (insert smilie here)
Is that one of the ones from Gypsy's basment that actually dropped a little more in price?
I ask because for some reason my Christmas catalog has disapeared. Hmmm, I wonder where it went? Could it be that one of Santa's elves has snagged it?
I hope so...

No. Still won't buy it. Can't afford to at the moment. Saving up for other stuff.

I just type quickly. Years of playing Zork games do that to you.
