LIVE NOW Mystery Science Theater 3000 Patrick Swayze Christmas Marathon

This Thanksgiving, fans of cheesy movies can rejoice with the return of the Mystery Science Theater 3000 Turkey Day Marathon! Continuing a three and a half decades’-long movie-riffing tradition, this year features extra helpings of cinematic turkey, spilling some of its gravy into Black Friday and beyond for the first-ever Mega Turkey Day Marathon Telethon! Premiering on Thanksgiving Day like the series itself did in 1988, The Mega Turkey Day Marathon Telethon will showcase a whopping 24 classic MST3K episodes over the course of two days. The event begins at 9 am ET on Thursday, November 23rd and concludes Saturday,...

For those who like their turkey on the table and on the tube, Mystery Science Theater 3000 has your Thanksgiving viewing figured out. The series all about riffing on cheesy movies will launch its first “Mega Turkey Day Marathon Telethon,” this year, and the event doubles as a booster for a crowdfunding effort—something it’s had great success with in the past—for MST3K season 14. Turkey jokes aside, Thanksgiving holds a special place in the heart of MST3K fans since the show actually premiered on Thanksgiving 1988 and has held (non-telethon) Thanksgiving marathons in the past. For 2023, there will be...

The MST3K TURKEY DAY MARATHON 2022 WE'VE GOT MOVIE SIGN AT 7 AM EST

This year's marathon will be the first to be released on the Gizmoplex streaming platform. In the not-too-distant future, next Thursday A.D., Mystery Science Theater 3000 will stream its annual Turkey Day marathon of classic episodes - and this year, it's bigger than it has been in nearly thirty years. The movie-mocking cult show will stream ten episodes, instead of its usual six, on Thanksgiving Day. The show made the announcement via Twitter today, in a trailer narrated by Penn Jillette. This year's marathon will be the first to be released on the Gizmoplex, the new streaming platform that was...

With the support of a fandom nearly 35 years in the making, the quirky comedy show "Mystery Science Theater 3000" launched a new season this year of lampooned movies on its own streaming service. The Gizmoplex, as the platform is called, may help ensure the future of the show — in which a janitor, trapped on a satellite orbiting Earth, is forced to watch "bad" movies with his wisecracking robot friends. Joel Hodgson, a Wisconsin native and creator of MST3K, recently appeared on Wisconsin Public Radio’s "The Morning Show" to discuss how the show has endured — and how local...

Something will happen this Friday that hasn’t happened since 1993: Joel Hodgson will officially host an episode of Mystery Science Theater 3000. Yes, the cult movie riffing show first created by Hodgson on Minneapolis public television in 1988 will see the long awaited, on-screen return of its creative leader, as Hodgson steps back into the role of “Joel Robinson” to riff a film alongside Crow T. Robot and Tom Servo. Some of the voices have changed, since Hodgson first left the series after Mitchell in the midst of MST3K season 5, and the series has changed quite a bit on...

As soon as you ate your fill, you’d grab a slice of pie and head back to the TV. It was the perfect way to avoid conversing with the relative who swore the world would be better if it wasn’t for the…. Now this...

American Psycho author Bret Easton Ellis ripped into the establishment media on his podcast this week, saying that the “crazy dishonest press” lied to the country about Trump-Russian collusion and the Mueller Report for the last two years.

With the new Mystery Science Theater 3000 season hitting Netflix on Thanksgiving, the MST3K Turkey Day marathon comes early this year. Thanksgiving Day is always a big deal for Mystery Science Theater 3000. It’s when the show debuted way back in 1988, it’s when the upcoming MST3K season 12 will debut on Netflix, and it’s when they regularly do their annual Thanksgiving marathon. The fact that it’s going to be the 30 year anniversary of the show helps make it seem like an even bigger deal this year. There’s been an elephant in the room, though. There’s a little too...

In newly released footage it was revealed that Mystery Science Theater 3000 bots Crow T. Robot and Tom Servo auditioned for the part of BB-8 in Star Wars: The Force Awakens in this leaked footage. They may have been a little typecast.
