The Future of MST3K Begins Tomorrow...?!

Kinda nuts...they're possibly on track to pass the first kickstarter campaign and get a 13th episode

Then prepare to get more nuts. They broke their record!

And wow...!

[JusSonic]

That's it! The campaign is over and the results are $6,158,747.57!

For you MST3K fans, great job on pledging.

well, I hope it goes well for them, and hoping gizmoplex gets them what they need to continue with out the need for more kickstarters

According to a wikipedia page that I found, two of the movies which will be in new season are Robot Wars and Demon Squad.

Interesting.

I'm honestly glad that the followers that wanted this are getting this, but I need a little clarification on one thing since I haven't been following anything about this except for what's been posted in this thread. Am I to understand, according to this thread, that one of the "perks" or bonuses associated with pledging more,more,more money was that Joel, who is in charge of this project with writing, producing, hiring etc , probably I would assume in charge of the money and EVERYTHING to do with this project, would, if enough money would be sent, actually appear in an episode of HIS OWN SHOW? Wow, if that's correct then all of the dictionaries in the world will have to be reprinted so Joel's photo can be inserted into the definition of ARROGANCE.

Yes, there were stretch goals to have Joel host two episodes, which he has not done since 1993. He appeared in every episode of the netflix seasons but all covered up as a background character.

It appears we're getting 13 episodes with a host rotation. Jonah gets 5, Joel gets 2, and Emily gets 5 plus the Christmas special.

I have also not been following much of the new era so this may have been done already but first I'm knowing of a female host which is AWESOME.
