I Got a nice picture of Richard Kiel throttling me at Cincinnati Comic Expo the year befoe he passed away.
I hear he was a super nice dude, RIP
Kevin Murphy's Tom Servo was easily my favorite character on this show, and seeing that room full of Servos all talking at once was hilarious!
I wonder where all those Tom Servos are and when might their uprising begin ????

@@pressureworks Most of them were exploded in the series finale, "Diabolik".
Although I love servo too, my favorite character was the final incarnation of crow.
"Final incarnation of crow" as in Bill's portrayal of Crow?
I prefer Trace's Crow because Bill's Crow has him from across as a huge unfunny aggressive bully to Mike and others, not even Servo's immune to that later on. @@charlieb1575
1:01:15 For the curious, from the wiki, and because I like it;
"The term ["robot"] comes from a Czech word, robota, meaning "forced labor"; the word 'robot' was first used to denote a fictional humanoid in a 1920 play R.U.R. (Rossumovi Univerzální Roboti - Rossum's Universal Robots) by the Czech writer, Karel Čapek but it was Karel's brother Josef Čapek who was the word's true inventor".
I read the play back in jr hi
Huh
1:11:19 yep.
Wow! That's so interesting - I had no idea! Thanks for the factoid, it's going to be fun sharing this tidbit with friends/family!! 👍😃
"Oh, she's blind! Well, that explains the decorating..." Ouch xD
It's funny how horror laBORratories all look exactly the same: in the dark basement with a bunch of concrete. 🤣 🤣 🤣
"this is my room, it's done in pinks..."
I love Tom Servo going *"What's THIS !?"* whenever there is somebody looking at somebody unbeknownst to them.
Crow: "Hunan duplicators" "Because 2 Wongs don't make a right." ha ...too funny!
Actually, he said, "Because two Wongs don't make a White." Almost got censored because it was kinda Asian racist.
i love when the mads switch back to joel after the william conrad skit and hes paying no attention to them
There's something about watching Dr. Forrester and TV's Frank getting along that's strangely heartwarming.
yes! i feel it too
It's even better to watch the show's outtakes, and better still to see & meet them in real life. Trace and Frank are both great guys!
You sure that just isn't heartburn?
They are happy together.
Crab Boat Malone ❤️
"I'm sorry, we've got a bad case of the sillies." 😆
The laughter sketch is too much and strangely just perfect. 🤔😆
Because . . . because . . . WILLIAM CONRAD!!!
Well they have a bad case of the sillies because it's episode 420!
Is it just me, or are they extra funny in this one? Right out of the gate I'm rolling!
1:10:00 "...and even if i do, does she greet me at the door wearing saran wrap and stiletto heels? No!!! Shes in a pink frilly dress with a warm apple pie! What good does that do me!?!" I... friggin... love...mike...nelson!
Agreed!
38:28 Dino's Lodge sign, also appears in the beginning of "Wild Guitar" starring Arch Hall Jr., who starred in "Eegah" with Richard Kiel, who was in this movie. The cosmic Dino connection.
18:15. I’m here for the Mr. Drysdale audition. He, he- he, he.
Attack of the Christmas ornament from the 60's! Right out of the gate lmfao!
Stop in the name of Tom Bodett! That's one of the funniest lines they ever did on this show to me.
Man I forgot how funny this one was. Even the movie on its own seems like it could be a fun watch sorta like Time Chasers, enough happens where it's not a total bore. The riffing just adds the frosting and cherry on top.
The blind leading the bland.
This movie marked the end of Hugh Beaumont's career in film. With "Beaver," his best acting days were clearly behind him, so he packed it in and became a Christmas tree farmer. Did he get the idea from the opening scene?
"As you have already seen, my life is not the dull routine the public might imagine.'
"Yes, I've met your niece. She's very lovely."
JOEL: WHAT the hell is THAT supposed to mean!?
Isn't it obvious? His niece's loveliness makes his life less dull! In a way I'll leave you to imagine while I go scrub the creepiness off myself, yick.
Joel: "I made this out of a bowling pin, a lacrosse helmet, and some tupperware panels."
Gypsy: "Wait a minute..."
Joel's spaceship model, looks a LOT like Crow, doesn't it?
RIP Richard Kiel. The big scary giant was good in everything.
I really like him in these "outsider" roles. He plays it so believably. It's a shame his talent wasn't better utilized, in that he sorta got pigeon-holed as "the big taciturn guy".
Also, "And *YOU* can count. On *ME* . Waiting for *YOU* in the parking lot!". Not even a TBI-inducing auto collision could keep Richard Kiel down!
Eagah too?
"the nail comes out next week, Mr Gilmore"
He was such a popular bad guy in The Spy Who Loved Me that they put him in Moonraker, the Bond movie that followed The Spy Who Loved Me.
In real life Lisa lost her hearing at age 4 and recovered iT at age 8. She was also in The Phantom Planet and Mutiny in Outer Space, along with non-mst3000 favorite, One of Our Spies is Missing [I guess there will always be a soft spot in my head for the Man from Uncle.]
:(
Wow, that went from a fun fact to an incredibly un-fun fact. Thanks, I guess.
@@notinspectorgadget Maybe I ought to edit that. I don't why I felt compelled to include iT. I guess a lot of these lessor known and even not as lessor known performers did not have the kind of lives one might expect. iT's almost as surprising that any of them get married versus never getting married. I only started reading their wiki's when fans favorit'ed so many performers I'd never heard of.
Y'know, if Richard Kiel was dressed in a sharp suit and allowed to speak like a normal person, he'd be a lot more menacing. Nobody can be intimidating when they're wearing a gold vinyl tunic and doing an impersonation of a Romulan.
Especially in Southern California. :P
Too much LDS in the 70s.
Latter Day Saints?
@@johnbee7729 Lotto Draw Sheets
All of this sounds so fun!
The fight scene at the end of the movie is one of the silliest things I've ever seen. Love this movie!
Episode 420
"case of the sillies"
ಠ‿ಠ
Strange coincidence! Speaking of 420...
90 percent of my Internet bill is watching MST3K and the related shows. Over and over. 1. FWIW, the Frank and Forrester's fake laughter at their own gag is the best fake laughter in entertainment history. And the gag they're laughing about is funny, too. 2. Before he even opens his mouth, the valiant Richard Kiel walks into a MSTie buzz saw. Well-played. 3. About the 12th time I watched this episode, I finally realized that it was one of the MSTies, not Kiel, who replied "Okay" to his briefing by his overlords. 4. "I was with NASA back when we were next to Cost Cutters." Gold. 5. Until I saw this episode, I did not know that Richard Kiel did not play Lurch. So, a slam at Kiel's expense is a nice little well-played shoutout to Ted Cassidy. Where's MST's Nobel Prize? There's no justice. 6. Even after correcting themselves, they just go ahead and drop a handful of Addams Family snarks, anyway. 7. The song, "One (Singular Sensation) is from the finale of A Chorus Line, in which all the dancer characters from the play appear onstage in identical costume and makeup--as though they were duplicates of the same human. FWIW. 8. In Heaven, the MSTies do all 1X,000 episodes of General Hospital, plus Fantasy Island, and selected episodes of Little House on the Prairie and the Waltons. So, be good for goodness' sake!

Ditto!!
Prof. Dornheimer: "As you have already seen, my life is not the dull routine the general public might imagine."
Agent Martin: "No, your niece is lovely." (??)
Joel: "What the hell is that supposed to mean?!"
what *was* that supposed to mean?
@@notinspectorgadget what did they mean?
I don't know what it means but I guess we can describe it as creepy.
@@steeveekeys1904 is it only due to my own cynical adult mind that I cannot for the life of me think of a non-creepy implication? Were someone less jaded than I offered that same prompt come up with a response that isn't immediate confusion and/or disgust? Am I _that_ broken?
@@notinspectorgadget nope, not broken. You're spot on!
R.I.P., Richard Kiel.
I'm going to put lighter fluid on it and burn it in the driveway. -Crow quotes my childhood.
"I'm equipped with shifting antigens so don't even try to find a cure."
Geez, what kind of quarantine procedures will we need for a pandemic of Tom Servo?
@@Chunkboi That's one disease I want to catch!
0:26 - I know the lyrics, but I keep hearing "But his bosses didn't like him so they shot him in his face".
I laughed so hard at "I could duplicate this mirror, but it'd be cheaper just to buy on..."
If Kolos had just waited a few years, much higher quality electronics would become available at Radio Shack.
That blone lady sounds like she could break into "Santa Baby" at any moment!
Barbara Nichols is perhaps best remembered as the featured water-tank swimmer in the 1960 Where the Boys Are. (She sang a number in that film, too*, so the notion of her doing "Santa Baby" is perfectly - and delightfully - plausible!) 😁
*Of course, it's also more than likely her singing voice was not her own... 🙄
I wonder if that was her real voice. She sounds like a NJ stripper.
Isn’t she just shout the same woman as in Secret Agent Super Jerk?
@@goldenager59horribly miscast in this though 😬
@@PatTheBatmanFan
I fear you've got something there. Perhaps someone like Angie Dickinson might have done a more convincing job...or who's _your_ actress of choice? 😕 🤨
"Stop in the name of Tom Bodett!!"
LOL good one joel
I adore "The X-Files" reference towards the end when Servo says, "Now we get to find out who Deepthroat really is!"
hmm, is that an X Files reference? I figured it was just Watergate.
@@analogkid01 I guess it could be but the X-Files episodes involving Deepthroat's fate aired around the time this episode did if I'm not mistaken. But you could be right. Fun fact: The actor who played Deepthroat in the X-Files has a one-off scene in "Mitchell".
I'm more inclined to agree with you because after the reference someone says, it was Hal Holbrook, who played deepthroat in "All the presidents men".
Thanks for your uploads over the years btw. You're a hero on the same level as Puma man...wait, that might have come out wrong ;)
Cheers from Canada
@@analogkid01 I'd go with Watergate.
1:09:01
Mike is amazing here.
The Mike-as-Hugh-Beaumont bit at 1:10 is an absolute classic. "Why can't my wife meet me at the door wearing saran wrap with stiletto heels?" I still quote this after all these years.
1:08:35
kinda starts here
I love the invention exchange in this episode. William Conrad First Alert, plus the Mads uncontrollably giggling at the notion that their invention is absurd, just hits me the right way. I giggle almost as much as they do whenever I watch it. The only opening host segment that I can remember liking that much was the "touch the llama" segment.
I also appreciated this episode for the fact that Kiel actually got to act in this movie, instead of scowling and grunting as was his usual typecast fare. His acting in this is nothing to write home about, but the character itself seemed to be written to be monotone with a small inkling of subtle emotion. Which means that Kiel probably nailed it exactly as the writer intended. Regardless, that they let him act is still something in itself.
I agree with you, and I too am glad he actually was able to play a character with actual dialogue instead of the caveman type sounds as you described like his role in Eegah for example.
Best wishes!
Y'all bring matches for MIKEY? XD
And the ending had William Conrad actually show up and raid the fridge.
Stemlow.
1:08:33 is the beginning of my all-time favorite MST3K host segment.
The worst thing that happened when we entered the Mike era of MST3K was we lost all of Mike's guest segments. Other than that, it was just as good (don't kill me mike/joal lovers...mst3k was good regardless!!!!)
42:54
Wow. They had a _lot_ of spare gumball machines.
Such a good segment.
Richard Kiehl would have made a kickass Satoras in the Final Sacrifice.
+weekendmom This is actually a little true. :O
The guy who played Satoris was hot though
In a creepy, sort of Darth Vader way, maybe.
Jim Henson's, Human Duplicator Babies! 😉
"I know every inch of this house by heart" ... I have a feeling that will come back on the plot!
I had forgotten how funny these guys are, i have peed myself just listening to the comments.
“Suppose you tell me how a man who’s been dead for several hours can have a car up a mountain road, get out, and jump over a cliff?”
“He’s Jesus?”
Joel's impression of Richard Kiel sounds like Kevin McDonald's "King of Empty Promises" character from Kids in the Hall.
"...slipped my mind..."
The Richard Kiel impressions were killing me.
_"it is nowww."_
I can't believe no one invited the android to stay at the end after he said all that :( that would have been interesting imo
It was the Termintor 2 ending
I love watching the Mads laughing. I think it was genuine too!
Frank's was. Forrester's wasn't.
HEY! The 'transporter' in this movie beat Star Trek's idea by 4 years! Gene Roddenberry is a HACK!
Did anyone else laugh (for real) as hard as Frank and Clayton did for the William Conrad fridge alert? That was contagious.
Same here. I'm glad they didnt take a reshoot.
...they were acting, chief.
Yeah, I'm pretty sure they were really laughing.
I couldn't help it..their laughter was so over the top that it was hilarious!😆
I imagine that uncontrolled laughter really happened in the writer's room for this episode.
When ever I watch this episode I think it would have been better if, when all the Toms are moving in on Crow and Crow yells "Movie sign!" they had the other seats filled with all the other Toms in the theater.
That would have been cool! An homage to a similar scene in Gremlins too!
Built my own versions of the bots. They don't look exactly like the real deals, but they're close enough! It takes ALOT of time to put them together, just makes me respect these guys and their creativity that much more!

Thanks! ^.^
02:25 "It's All-Terrain Assault Me..." Love Kevin's line reading.
*"Oh that's me, except I'm moist."*
Where can I put in an order for Viral Servo?
Richard Kiel was good-looking when he was younger.
47:00 Oh, that's a GREAT hiding place, Doctor Genius. It's a good thing people never glance slightly to their left in this movie.
26:00 See that's funny because Trace Beaulieu built the SOL model.
When they were duplicating Martin I kept expecting one of the bots to say "Mind your own business Mr. Spock! I'm sick of your half-breed interference!"
Great to see Dr Forrester and lovable TVs Frank act stoned on episode 420
"Jim Henson's Jack Palance babies" is HILARIOUS!
Stopping by to say hi (as in hello) in honor of ep. 0420, on 04/20/2017... MST3K is my laugh juice.
"Slight design flaw", lol. I love how guns will do nothing but a short fall will shatter the head and break the android. A couple dudes with baseball bats could handle this invasion...
It's a joke reference to a very similar graphic that they used to have at the very beginning of TV shows of the '80s: "In Stereo, Where Available," back when stereo TV was a new thing.
'Tenspeed and Brownshoe!" I remember that show! LOL LOL!
I LOL'd at Hunan Duplicator and 2 wongs don't make a....
This is one of the best episodes in my humble opinion-"Human Replicators" is just superbly & perfectly terrible...cant believe I havnt seen this episode until today. I feel like I just found $100 bill in a jacket I havnt worn in a long while...LOL
One of my favorites, thanks! You have to love the edgy Hugh Beaumont.
So this is where Dad from Leave it to Beaver worked as..makes it more deep in comedy & good drama
Episode 420, and they can't stop laughing 🤔
Uh huh 😂
RIP Richard Kiel aka JAWS :-)
Richard Kiel looks like a super Satoris from The Final Sacrifice.
Richard gets to talk in his own voice here!
"This is what they get for leaving national security secrets in a high school in Pasadena."
Which was funny for me at the time I watched this episode because the high school I was attending had one building with classrooms that opened to the outside like that.
I get the feeling that Barbara Nichols' (Gale) Long Island accent was the inspiration for the voice of Harley Quinn.
Hard to believe this was the original pilot for Mork and Mindy.
+Doctor Craptonicus Get the fuck out of here!
-In the words of Chico Marx "Who you gonna believe, me or your own eyes?"
+Doctor Craptonicus So they originally wanted a show about a malicious alien who built killer androids?
+Doctor Craptonicus That is unfortunately not true... while a funny story. Mork first appeared in Happy Days after Jerry Paris originally came up with the concept from his Dick Van Dyke days as an actor/director (1961-1965 before this movie came out), and eventually saw come to fruition when he did Happy Days with Rob Reiner.
Gary Marshall, producer, even jokingly mentioned when Williams was cast, he was 'the only alien to audition for the part'. Williams is known to have sat on his head when told to take a seat for the audition process.
LostRoadVisions Fascinating!!!...Though it kinda makes you look like a stick in the mud who doesn't get the joke.
"A robot would look like...your acting" Hee hee hee.
"Good morning, sir!"
"Ah, sit and spin."
You laugh now, but that alert will come in useful if a wild band of William Conrads attacks your refrigerator.
9:55 Servo's referring to Wheeler and Woolsey, a today-obscure comedy duo from the 30s
12:20 Could be wrong, but wasn't that mansion also in Pumaman?
13:11 "We! Want! Value!"
Probably not, but the mansion you're referring to was also featured in the Timothy Dalton James Bond movie The Living Daylights.
It's amazing how Richard Kiel has so much screen presence, but at the same time no ability to act believably. I guess being huge and having a deep voice was plenty enough to get an acting gig back in the day.
That wasn't nice.
Was it ever explained as to why the professor had a bunch of jail cells under his house?
Weird-old-guy mansions in southern California just come with them standard.
@shandelear - back when "Switch" (starring Ellen Barkin and Jimmy Smits) came out, all the advertising said "Switch - Jimmy Smits." Not "starring Jimmy Smits," or "with Jimmy Smits," just "Switch - Jimmy Smits." It was weird and off-putting and it must've affected Trace Beaulieu deeply, causing enough psychological trauma to force him to hold Joel Hodgson at gunpoint until Joel let Trace play the part of Crow, thus allowing him to make "Switch - Jimmy Smits" jokes.
Lost it at the "deny them my essence."
"Dr. Kolos and Diet Kolos"
This episode is awesome. The gang's Richard Kiel impressions are awesome. Every single time Richard Kiel is onscreen, they kick ass.
Oh, and ROBOT PRIDE!
"Dad, I don't get girls."
You're never going to get girls, you freckled little dumpling! Don't you get it?!"
1:09:00 priceless
God in heaven, what the HELL were the Mads huffing for the invention exchange this episode??
This Movie uses some of the same music from Phantom Planet, and Richard Kiel was also in that.
Coincidence? Read the book!
Puppet Pal Clem
So was Deloris Faith, the blind girl. Ironically in phantom planet, she played a mute
at 30:39: the theme of Rockford Files!
TV's Frank is a method actor
Loved the "I'm working up a Rondo thirst!" ancient soda reference.
I always thought that was a reference to Rondo Hatton, star of “The Brute Man”. I’d never heard of Rondo Soda (“The Thirst Crusher!”) Apparently though it was the basis for the product Brawndo, “The Thirst Mutilator” in “Idiocracy”. Amazing.
Oh come on, that's a little harsh...everyone's had a case of the giggles. "I mean who's gonna need this thing? Maybe Quinn Martin...and he's dead!"
Trace kills me every time from 52:30 to 52:40. "Oh, poopie" indeed.
The film starred Ellen Barkin, and the ads proclaimed "Ellen Barkin in SWITCH!" Smits' agent must have been pissed off that Smits got left out of the trailer closing, so a quick ADR "Jimmy Smits" was added at the last second.
I'm proud of the bots for coming out. That takes a lot of courage! No surprise that Joel is completely accepting. :D
I like that Crow is obsessed with "strike the set" remarks.
Crow's expression at 3:00 is hilarious!
@52:43
Comedy Central's got the first show to deal with life from a woman's perspect-GET OUT WHILE YOU CAN (Man escapes via zip line)
Hahahahaha, the timing was so perfect that I thought it was one big horribly sexist commercial.
Clyde And the reason all jokes are funny, is a dash of truth. It is sad we have to call everything sexist today when it is just great humor 😏 The irony being that today we are inundated with "empowered female stories" so in a weird way this joke applies even more so today than back then 😅
+darthclide
Yeah, it's true. We basically live in a world where masculinity is dead and anything related to it should be looked upon with shame. But, like you said, in order for something to be funny, something or someone has to be the but of the joke. That's how comedy's worked for centuries and if you take away the punch from a punchline, then you quite literally kill the joke.
Clyde Funny how my name is based off yours. Is that why you are so reasonable with me? 😂😂 Considering how many mst3k fans are on board with Joel in attacking masculinity and being "triggered" by the evil white sexist 1950s man, I am surprised to see someone who recognizes what our world is today. I know it is a fool's hope, but I wish the reboot would pick on everything. Feminism, Republicans, Democrats etc. But we all know that the show will probably go from "somewhat unobtrusive left" where it is now, to "Unashamedly, in your face super left/PC" :(
it's just a show, and you should really just relax.
The real beauty of the show is they let you the option to watch film beginning to end brilliantly done.
"WHAT's THIS !? " -- lol, the batman show from the 1960's
