It’s ‘Time’ for another eight hours of deep-hurting hilarity.
Television series Rod Lott
Another quarter, another “Mystery Science Theater 3000” release from
Shout! Factory. While hell on the wallet, fervent fans of the series
know each set is worth every penny and then some.
Sci-Fi Rod Lott
In an abandoned lab in Jackson, Fla., one Dr. Leopold (Marshall Grauer)
completes a seven-year project to mutate and transform himself from a
mild-mannered, dumpy-looking mad scientist to an upright, green-scaled
creature (Wade Popwell) who retains all of the doc's mental functions
and artistic abilities.
OKG7 things to do Gazette staff
Because few sights are more sore for the eyes than two hours of Sean
Connery in a red diaper, the Oklahoma City Museum of Art, 415 Couch, has
drafted The Movie Clubbed to provide a live, Mystery Science Theater
3000-style mocking of the sci-fi sewage known as 1974’s Zardoz.

Fans won't need much convincing (if at all) to plunk down their choice of currency for a purchase of Mystery Science Theater 3000: Volume XXIII
(that's "23," dummies), because by now, Shout! Factory's rep for
packing these boxes with genuine care and irresistible extras is
rock-solid.
You could try to kill it with a forklift, but why?
Television series Rod Lott XXIV, VXI, XXX, IV, X — hell, it's all Greek Roman to me. All I know for sure is that each and every box set that has been or will be released of Mystery Science Theater 3000 is worth owning. Since the new Volume XXIV falls into that category, it, too, qualifies.
