Rollergator is cute. The alligator, not the film. I'm not sure if I have acoustic guitar induced brainworms or some other mental condition after watching that movie but I feel comfortable saying that the tiny purple gator puppet is Good.

Davros1 posted:High School USA, starring Michael J Fox and a whole slew of 80s TV stars. This used to get rerun on my local station in the 80s all the time. NBC tried to make this into a series, and that has something of an MST3K connection: quote:No less a personage than NBC president Brandon Tartikoff chose Hodgson to star in a sitcom that he was personally backing. That meant the show would have a guaranteed run, and, of course, it meant an offer of big bucks to Hodgson: $10,000 a show to start. Hodgson turned the offer down. Joel's disillusionment led him to move back to Minnesota. Only one episode of the series was made, and it was burned off over Memorial Day weekend.

Breadallelogram posted:oh it's THAT High School USA I thought it sounded familiar too and all I found was that one season animated series that looked deeply unfunny, because 'adult' animation needs to be like Family Guy since nobody is clever enough to reach for early Simpsons or even The Critic. Now if you will all pardon me, I will be off to yell at clouds. Good day.

There's also the scene at the dance where the one gossipy girl is dating a middle aged guy.

At a guess it's probably too expensive to do VOD and I don't think they make that much on Just The Jokes. Also they may just not know about it. Throw them a recommendation.

I have submitted a recommendation for the guys to do Barry Bostwick's Megaforce. If they decide to do it, I am content with that being my legacy.

You could always just  it, and go to the Rifftrax donation page. They basically beg you to during the credits.

So as of right now it looks like Trace and Frank are going to continue doing a livestream version of The Mads because they've announced another one for next month, Walk the Dark Street.

I may be late to this, but since I arrived unspoiled, I’d like to opine that I was woefully unprepared. That is to say, I just finished Rock ‘n’ Roll Nightmare.

Amazon Prime Video had a couple of the live shows, which were drat good, so I went and bought others they had for sale. I have to say that with what we know now, I wasn't SUPER amused by videos made by Lowtax, animated by Shmorky, and featuring Lowtax's now estranged daughter. Still, the live shows are very good and IMO have a much better energy than many of the non-live Rifftraxes and I would recommend the Plan 9 and Reefer Madness live shows at least, A++.
