A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Alice Coltrane carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

TDK60 - That show was fantastic. The show airs on television, but has a new rendition that isn't as good as the original. It might be on Netflix or Hulu? I loved this show as a kid.

@TDK60 They actually just relaunched it on Netflix-- new cast, but Joel's back on board writing/producing. You can also find a bunch of classic episodes scattered around various streaming services. There's one called PlutoTV which basically works like a fake cable package, and one channel is entirely dedicated to MST3K 24 hours a day. In a few small ways, it's a good time to be alive.

@TDK60, as I noted above, "Cry Wilderness" is part of the new season on Netflix and it's amazing(ly terrible) and hilarious. But some of the other episodes are pretty lame. For instance, there's nothing they can do to make "Starcrash" less than pure suffering, even with all their jokes. It's not a fun kind of bad, it's just straight-up pain (and the Hoff, who might as well be a Nobel Laureate compared to most of the cast, isn't even in much of it).
