Be very careful with that if you accept the programming of just accepting it's a show they can do anything they want and you'll accept it as just part of the show. Don't be dumb
"But his bosses didn't like him, so they shot him into space" Gee. That's almost as blunt an explanation as James And The Giant Peach's "and then a rhino ate the parents".
Honestly, I think the low budget and simplicity of it is what gave the original part of its charm. The reboot/sequel series has always felt too overproduced to me, even at the intro. It's not quite the same.
You know when I first watched the intro to this I thought that sending him to outer space was a bit much and wouldn't firing him make more sense... but then I saw the Joel made a vacuum accordion machine and it all made sense.
He must get food and oxygen shipped up by the mads. What I don't get is where he sleeps and where he gets all of the stuff to make new inventions every week. But I should probably just relax...I mean it's just a show.
At least there's a new season coming out on Netflix soon. Too bad we won't have it here in Scandinavia though... we never even had the show in English here, which really sucks. Maybe it will change now. I'd watch it in English subtitles though, since the jokes works best that way.
This is one of the 5 TV shows that literally changed my view of the world... The other 4 were Buffy the Vampire Slayer, X-Men the Animated Series, Coupling (the British version), and Red Dwarf (The British version).
MST3K made me realize that it was okay to make fun of everything. Red Dwarf made me interested in British culture. X-Men made me realize that animation could be used in a continuous story, which is both entertaining and intelligent. Buffy the Vampire Slayer made me realize how deep stories could go. Coupling made me realize I could laugh even with two giant fucking needles in my arm... I was on dialysis the first time I watched it.
Good points. My favorite TV shows that I learned life lessons were from The Hulk, Highlander, Wonder Years, and Spider-man animated series. The Hulk: Made me interested in Science and becoming a better worker. When I leave a job, I can always come back to the job at any point in my life for establishing good relationships with customers and people that work there. Highlander: Taught me to live life as an immortal. Never settle or be complacent. Keep moving and experiencing different people in my travels. Learn many languages, write books, be a renaissance man etc. Never burn bridges with good people. Wonder Years: Taught me to always value family and friendships. It was more of a show that relates to my life: the girl next door crush, not being popular in school but popular among your circle of friends, meeting different women on family vacations and sharing kisses with them and sex and never seeing them again after the vacation. This got me into one of my jobs as a truck driver. I love an adventure over the open road. Spider-man TAS: This show got me into comics. I was a kid when this was out and Spiderman has always been my favorite hero. Peter Parkers physique taught me that big muscles arent everything. He beat his opponents who were much stronger than him by wit, nimbleness, luck, speed, and agility. One of the best cartoons I ever saw. I wish he choose Black cat over Mary Jane lol. Sorry if I misspelled several things. Im on my smartphone and the keyboard is very small. Too lazy to edit my work lol.
I remember a few shows changed my views. 12 Oz. Mouse taught me not to judge a cartoon by the way it looks, give even the ugliest and cheapest cartoon/show a chance and you might walk away pleasantly surprised. MST3K made me into a fan of watching bad movies, not only for the act of mocking them but also seeing them as a form of art that, while not technically proficient by any stretch, at least provide a more honest form of cinema than what plays in the average theater or is advertised on tv. Codename KND taught me the value of story, pacing and characters in a serialized animated show, as well as the fact that a cartoon for kids could tackle some very dark and mature themes without necessarily falling into the trappings associated with being 'mature' or 'edgy'. It also taught me that escalating a threat in a kids cartoon can go beyond "this villain is trying to destroy the world, next week another stronger villain is trying to destroy two worlds," to become "This week a pirate is trying to steal candy, next season a villain tries to destroy the KND organization, next season a villain tries to destroy the world, in the final season a sinister organization is trying to destroy the entire galaxy." There's probably more, but those are the ones that I can think of at the moment.
If you're wandering how he eats and breathes And other science facts Just repeat to yourself, "It's just a show, I should really just relax" For MYSTERY SCIENCE THEATER 3000!
As of today, after almost ten years since this video went up, there's now one missing In the not too distant future, next sunday AD There was a guy named Jonah not too different from you or me He worked at Gizmonics institute just another mug in a yellow jumpsuit A distress call came to him at half past noon That's when an evil woman trapped him on the dark side of the moon!
One one side of cinema, Star Wars, Jaws, and other legendary names were changing move-making forever with their innovations and stories. On the other end of the pond..... are the films featured here. I love it.
My childhood in a nutshell. One of the happiest days of my life was when later Joel from MST3K followed me on Twitter. But then I reminded myself that it is just a show and I should really just relax.
For everyone who needs more MST3K in their lives there is an official 24/7 channel on twitch dedicated to the entirety of the show. Just search MST3K and there you go...
Has anyone notcied that if a show runs for quite a while, the titles often get much better then the orignal version? I like this version, but it just seems a bit...Slow, nevertheless...It's still great, I remember when I watched this show as a child and would always say along with the singers "ROBOT ROLL CALL"
This was my Saturdays with my parents. I was a member of the fan club and everything. Mom loved Crow, Dad loved Gypsy, and I loved Joel. After Joel left, I lost interest.
The guys that worked on it have come out with a new series called Rifftrax. It's not on TV or anything, but you can buy the DVDs online and such. They do basically the same thing as MST3K, but with newer movies.
Thankx for posting this!!! One of y kid's fondest memories is watching this on Friday nights with their cousins and all of us laughing our heads off! And yes, I perfer Joel. I don't know why he left :(
@MentosMan727 Josh (the fat guy with black hair) appeared on the KTMA version, which really isn't considered season 1 since it was local programming. TV's Frank was the official mad sidekick for the cable show's season 1
When Joel refused to see a movie, the Mads would contunally zap him with a lazer until he enters the theater. One Episode had Mike refuse to see the movie then Pearl shuts off the oxygen in the SOL until he entered the theater (Dr. Forrester did something like this in MST3K: The movie in order to get Mike to bow to him)
I don't know about the availability of MST3K DVDs, but you can watch free episodes on WinAmp TV through the latest free (or paid, for the deluxe version) WinAmp media player.
Here's an argument for you people besides Mike vs Joel: Dr. Laurence Earnhart (The original sidekick to Dr. Forrester during season 0) vs TV's Frank (The sidekick for seasons 1-5)

"Repeat to yourself it's just a show, I should really just relax". This would resolve so many nerd fights.
The more Hollywood breathes reboots and sequels, the more we need to remember this.
Facts.
They would then just argue about when exactly peace and unity began to reign over the nerd universe.
I use this line whenever someone questions something in a tv show around me.
Be very careful with that if you accept the programming of just accepting it's a show they can do anything they want and you'll accept it as just part of the show. Don't be dumb
"But his bosses didn't like him, so they shot him into space"
Gee. That's almost as blunt an explanation as James And The Giant Peach's "and then a rhino ate the parents".
Not gonna lie, the first time I heard the theme I thought they said "So they shot him in his face".
This is proof that you don't need a big budget to make a great show.
Sooooo true
Honestly, I think the low budget and simplicity of it is what gave the original part of its charm. The reboot/sequel series has always felt too overproduced to me, even at the intro. It's not quite the same.
@@Cool70sfreak I always thought that the SoL looked like it had a boner.: -) 😆
I think that's the whole point. I mean, they're literally force fed to watch B-movies from the past.
You know when I first watched the intro to this I thought that sending him to outer space was a bit much and wouldn't firing him make more sense... but then I saw the Joel made a vacuum accordion machine and it all made sense.
they did fire him....into space.
ThatGuyWithTheTripod Exactlly
😆😅🤣😂
He did do a good job cleaning up the place. So I don't know if HR would have allowed the firing, it was easier just to reassign him.
Lowkey the most successful reaction series you'll ever find.
What I don't understand is how does he eat or breathe up there
+Mermaid Man You should really just relax
Lalala!
He must get food and oxygen shipped up by the mads. What I don't get is where he sleeps and where he gets all of the stuff to make new inventions every week.
But I should probably just relax...I mean it's just a show.
you should really just relax
He drinks his own piss
I love how cambot just says "hi girl" when gypsy is onscreen
That's Cambot saying that?

I don’t love that.

This show holds a special place in my heart. It brought humor at a very challenging time in my life.
Same. My Aunt died around the time I discovered it.
The same for me my friend. I was just a disabled kid growing up....then this show came into my life & brighten my day.
Same. Deealing with some heavy stuff. I was very happy when this came on Comedy Central.
Same
Definitely my favorite intro.
me too
Ever seen this one? ruclips.net/video/e2ZRSwul7cE/видео.html or ruclips.net/video/rhS5xMK845U/видео.html
Joel took the special parts of the system to make friendship, and observe hilarious things forever. Genius :)
11 people didn't think Servo is a cool guy
matt c. no 15
matt c Those people also didn't like Joel
Some shows take themselves too seriously, one reason why I love mst3k. It knows that the main goal is to entertain.
One of the best intros ever.
Now this is one TV show theme song that I cannot get out of my head as soon as I hear it, and that's totally fine with me. XD
Me too ;)
I think it'd be cool if some TV station starting showing reruns of this.
The only problem is just getting the license to show the actual movies themselves.
Shitty or not, it's still unfortunately the law and copyright is copyright.
At least there's a new season coming out on Netflix soon. Too bad we won't have it here in Scandinavia though... we never even had the show in English here, which really sucks. Maybe it will change now. I'd watch it in English subtitles though, since the jokes works best that way.
The vast majority of these films were in the public domain, at least at the time MST3K did them.
There is a station called Comet that still airs it. I think they show it every Sunday night.
And BTW You're watching Manos:The Hands Of Fate
Manos. The hands of fate.
Manos. The Hands of Fate!
Manos... The hands of fate!
Manos...
Oh, The Hand of Fate?
manos, the hands of fate.
Anyone else notice Joel is writing with the wrong end of a capped Sharpie?
He might have put the cap on the end for safe keeping.

yes, you should
its amazing watch it now o-o
@Ross Smith I’ve watched them all
@@ArooMeister What'd you think?
This is how you make low budget charming.
i always thought they said "shot him in his faceeee"...😂
MR.CTE they wouldn’t have a show if that happened
My mom did too !
That is hilarious. I mean that in a good way
Marvin from _Pulp Fiction_ would say that doesn't make him special.
Good Lord 🤣
On Mystery Science Theaterrrrrr three thousaaaaand...
MST3K is on Kickstarter right now for a new season. Here's hoping we get more.
+VN Reader About halfway through it's strech goal through 1.5 days. Heck of a good start.
VN Reader Season 11 is a go ! Netflix has it and it airs April 14th ! Joel got it done !
IT'S HERE
This show is the equivalant of chilling out with your friends after a long day at school.
This is one of the 5 TV shows that literally changed my view of the world...
The other 4 were Buffy the Vampire Slayer, X-Men the Animated Series, Coupling (the British version), and Red Dwarf (The British version).
Jonathan Stern, in what way did these TV shows change your views of the world?
MST3K made me realize that it was okay to make fun of everything. Red Dwarf made me interested in British culture.
X-Men made me realize that animation could be used in a continuous story, which is both entertaining and intelligent.
Buffy the Vampire Slayer made me realize how deep stories could go.
Coupling made me realize I could laugh even with two giant fucking needles in my arm... I was on dialysis the first time I watched it.
Good points. My favorite TV shows that I learned life lessons were from The Hulk, Highlander, Wonder Years, and Spider-man animated series.
The Hulk: Made me interested in Science and becoming a better worker. When I leave a job, I can always come back to the job at any point in my life for establishing good relationships with customers and people that work there.
Highlander: Taught me to live life as an immortal. Never settle or be complacent. Keep moving and experiencing different people in my travels. Learn many languages, write books, be a renaissance man etc. Never burn bridges with good people.
Wonder Years: Taught me to always value family and friendships. It was more of a show that relates to my life: the girl next door crush, not being popular in school but popular among your circle of friends, meeting different women on family vacations and sharing kisses with them and sex and never seeing them again after the vacation. This got me into one of my jobs as a truck driver. I love an adventure over the open road.
Spider-man TAS: This show got me into comics. I was a kid when this was out and Spiderman has always been my favorite hero. Peter Parkers physique taught me that big muscles arent everything. He beat his opponents who were much stronger than him by wit, nimbleness, luck, speed, and agility. One of the best cartoons I ever saw. I wish he choose Black cat over Mary Jane lol.
Sorry if I misspelled several things. Im on my smartphone and the keyboard is very small. Too lazy to edit my work lol.
All good choices and interesting lessons.
I remember a few shows changed my views.
12 Oz. Mouse taught me not to judge a cartoon by the way it looks, give even the ugliest and cheapest cartoon/show a chance and you might walk away pleasantly surprised.
MST3K made me into a fan of watching bad movies, not only for the act of mocking them but also seeing them as a form of art that, while not technically proficient by any stretch, at least provide a more honest form of cinema than what plays in the average theater or is advertised on tv.
Codename KND taught me the value of story, pacing and characters in a serialized animated show, as well as the fact that a cartoon for kids could tackle some very dark and mature themes without necessarily falling into the trappings associated with being 'mature' or 'edgy'.

Right up there as one of the best theme songs and intros ever.
As of today, after almost ten years since this video went up, there's now one missing
In the not too distant future, next sunday AD
There was a guy named Jonah not too different from you or me
He worked at Gizmonics institute just another mug in a yellow jumpsuit
A distress call came to him at half past noon
That's when an evil woman trapped him on the dark side of the moon!
Miss this show. Miss Joel and the 'bots. Thanks for this!
One one side of cinema, Star Wars, Jaws, and other legendary names were changing move-making forever with their innovations and stories.
On the other end of the pond..... are the films featured here. I love it.

My childhood in a nutshell. One of the happiest days of my life was when later Joel from MST3K followed me on Twitter. But then I reminded myself that it is just a show and I should really just relax.
I never even laughed at this show but for some reason would watch it as much as I could as a kid. Holds a lot of nostalgia for me
Don’t you just hate it when your boss doesn’t like you and sends you to space.
Slow it down, and you have a Nine Inch Nails song. Speed it up, and you have a song by the Offspring. This is such a versatile show.
For everyone who needs more MST3K in their lives there is an official 24/7 channel on twitch dedicated to the entirety of the show. Just search MST3K and there you go...
My favorite MST3k intro.
that's a hellova reason to shoot someone into space lol
I love Joel and Mike equally.
Nothing comes close to the awesomeness of this!
Love that guitar riff at the end !
Thanks Nerd Block for sending me this show!
Has anyone notcied that if a show runs for quite a while, the titles often get much better then the orignal version?

I wish this show was still on loved it when i was a teen
This was my Saturdays with my parents. I was a member of the fan club and everything. Mom loved Crow, Dad loved Gypsy, and I loved Joel. After Joel left, I lost interest.
Kathy Bentley
Welp, at least we got Mike and Jonah. Whom of which are as good as Joel.
My parents and I also bonded over mst3k 😭 it holds so dear to the heart
Well, that's one way to deal with an employee you don't like.
My dad and I used to watch this show and laugh at it lol
If ever a one shot RUclips account should exist solely for one video, JUMPSUITJOEL IS THE WINNER.
This song is so amazing! Hearing it once means listening to it every time - in mind, for sure the first words - in a not too distant future *lalala*
How are you now
@@3rebella still feeling fine :)
I sure do miss this show!
I watched this and now I can't stop singing it!
LOVE and miss it! :)
I loved this show when I was a kid. Such a cool concept, this and Monster Vision with Joe Bob Brigs were the best.
I can’t get this out of my head
Great memories, comfy on the couch with my wife late at night.
my most fave show!!!!!!!!!
Love this show
For good or ill this tune takes me back to the early 80's.
It was hell I tells ya!

Mst3k should riff on a certain Spider Spinoff that came out this year...
Never heard of the show. I found the theme on one of the Botchamanias & LOVE IT!!!!!
for all fans you can watch this on winamp on the shoutcast tv , :) all the episodes in no particular order
3 cool thing out of Minneapolis: THE MARY TYLER MOORE SHOW, Prince and MST3K.
