The WAVe Page: Mystery Science Theater 3000 WAVe Files! MST3K HAS BEEN CANCELED!!! Below is a message which I sent to MST3K's producers: I just heard about MST3K's cancellation. What is Sci-Fi Channel thinking? I can tell you, I don't know anyone who watches Sci-Fi Channel for "Earth 2" or "Friday the 13th: The Series" reruns. Most of the stuff on Sci-Fi that I DO watch I learn about through the commercials during MST3K. Considering that your show is so relatively cheap to produce, I should think you could find an outlet SOMEwhere. I'm sure your budget only looks expensive to Sci-Fi channel in comparison to purchasing some series canceled after 10 episodes and re-running them ad infinitum. Between the re-runs, the two-star movies and the Original Movies (half of which could qualify as an MST3K experiment), there will be precious little to draw me to the Sci-Fi Channel once your show is gone. I'm betting thousands of other people will have the same reaction; maybe they'll change their minds after they think about it a bit! Here's a thought: maybe it's about time that Sci-Fi Channel (or some other outlet) began running ten years of MST3K re-runs! As I have only seen your recent shows (and a handful of your syndicated "Theater Hour" shows and a few videotapes), there must be a market for them. Consider it. MST3K makes my weekend. I will miss it terribly. As MST3K bids farewell, a recent Crow joke suddenly rings very true with this fan: "YOU KNOW YOU WANT ME, BABY!" If you'd like to send a message to Sci-Fi Channel's Programming Idiots, e-mail program@scifi.com Joel: I'm HUGE! Tom Servo: Comment about well-endowed actress. Evil alien teenager: Torture! Joel: Freakout! Joel & the bots: SUPERFREAKOUT!!! with ensuing lunacy. TV's Frank: DEEEEEEP HURRRRTING! Joel & the bots: HUH??? Tom Servo: Sayyyy! Look at the cute butt on me, willya? Joel: Iowa State College: The High School AFTER High School! TV's Frank: This is one weeeeird mamajama! Tom Servo: (bronx accent) Hi!!!! Back to the WAVe Page!
