MST3K coming back

[Homercidal]

Ended up with $6.3M in total funds raised. Enough for 13 episodes.

I watched a bit of two episodes. One was an official stream for the crowdfund campaign, and the other was apparently a fan feed site I stumbled upon when I was looknig for a working link to the official site. They had a few severe technical problems during the telethon. (But, I mean, can you really call it a "Tele" thon if you don't "tele" phone in your pledges?)

Anyway, I can't wait to see what movies they get to riff on, and I'm going to be looking for more classics that I haven't seen.

Actually, with $6.3 million they will be making 14 episodes. There was a last minute challenge during the telethon to get to $6.3 million and they would make 14 episodes.

Yes, you are correct. I typed it wrong.

My main question is what kind of movies can the riff for $14M? Are they going to stick with the old terrible movies, or try to riff on some newer releases?

Personally, I liked the old movies. They are ripe for picking on.

Yeah, Joel covered that in one of his updates to Kickstarter. I can't remember exactly what to say, but essentially it will be all older cheesy movies that we've come to love the show for.
