Ok - little history lesson (it's one of my tope 5 fav shows of all time; I have over 100 shows on tape). MST3K started out on a local UHF station in Minneapolis. After 1 year, it was picked up by The Comedy Channel, where it was on for the majority of its run, until it went to the Sci-Fi channel for the last year or so. The original host was creator Joel Hodgson. He left in the middle of the run for Hollywood, so head writer Mike Nelson took over. The show has always been shot in Minneapolis, as the creators and writers did not want to live in California.

Thanks. It was Joel that I liked. I thought it was done in Oregon. Maybe he was from there? But was it ever called MST2000?
