Damn this is good. That’s the kind of shit that just lives rent free in my brain. So many quotes that only 1 in 10 people ever get but are somehow integral to my personality
- Big McLarge Huge
  
  Cliff Beefpile
- "Rowsdower!"
  
  "Are you an onion?"
  
  "FOR CASTLETON!"
  
  "Oh no, no, they're doing it clown style!"
  
  "this is how much pure cocaine you would need to enjoy this movie"
- I'm this way with all 7 seasons of New Girl.
Too bad the latest reboot season failed to meet its funding goals. It felt like it was just starting to hit its stride.
- Agreed. I really, really like Emily. I hope they find a way to bring the show back, and with Emily.
  
  Kelsey, the voice of Emily's Crow, has his mannerisms down perfectly.
- the latest reboot season
  
  For a moment, I thought you meant there was a new season of Reboot.
- I felt like they packed far to many jokes in. Yes the plot of the movie is dumb but if I can't hear it at all....
Ya know there is something special about the era of unmoderated, local Minnesota television haha.
Kevin Cunningham should crop his screenshots of his replies to brands lol

Oh, I wish I could learn more about the Victorian and Medieval eras. But alas I have a lot to learn about already!
I remember when this aired in our region. It was always super late night/morning and I had always already taken out my contacts. (My eyesight is horrible and I couldn't afford both contacts and glasses.) And I had invariably missed the intro and hadn't yet grokked that "MST3K" and this mystery show were one and the same. I had so many questions.

This was also the era of public access television, which was arguably much, much weirder. Like, "a guy dressed like Elvis eating a massive bowl of mashed potatoes and griping about ghosts and Bill Clinton" weird.
