It's been a few weeks since I made an announcement here, just reminding everyone MST Club is still chugging along on its second trip through the history of Mystery Science Theater 3000. We show episodes Thursdays at 9 PM Eastern (6 PM Pacific), but we get started with other things a couple of hours early, if cinema nonsense be something you wish.

I always enjoy when the movies have cheesy soundtracks for them to play around with: "Watermelon Maaaan!"

"They broke into Wes Montgomery's House!"

One of my all-time favorite Tom Servo lines: "This is for the ladies... but I like it too."

"I hope my death ray has not been the cause of all this!"

Movie: "Thank you Fargo!" Mike: "For being a major agricultural center in the Midwest."

For whatever reason, Mike in a sailor suit is one of the funniest sights ever.

Oh, and I always love a good Andy Kaufman/Latka Gravas reference (I think there's one in the next episode too).
