There's 5 hours left and they're at $5.1 million.

I think...I think they'll do it.  Hoping. TeddyR

They made it. There's $400K in the add-on kitty that isn't reflected in the Kickstarter total. Playing for the Holiday episode stretch goal.

It's at 5.7, seems like a good shot even for that.  Wow.  Wonder if this is technically the new high for Kickstarted TV/movie?  Can Kickstarter count the non-kickstarter stuff for the total?

Edit to add: Just reached the final goal.  13 episodes.  $6 million to $6.2 million total looks likely.  Man.  

I'd actually say this makes the longer term aspects of the show pretty possible too.

Also, Joel (and whoever helped him with all this) did a terrific job.  The slow rollouts, leading questions, personalized videos and updates, celeb teases and reveals, use of social media, URL registration forward, telethon, it's text book how to run a campaign like this.  

Another edit.  It did break Veronica Mars record even without the addons, just barely.  Also, the Kickstarter top line now says they're going make fourteen episodes.  Guess the extra $200k+ on top of the $5.9 was enough to make an extra!

I'm trying not to read the post above this one because I want to be surprised. Wish we had a spoiler tag on the forum.

Sorry about that. After much failed experimentation with the limited options for text colors on this forum, I just deleted the list and will give it its own post. That way, it'll be purely your fault if you go look at it.  TongueOut

Jack Frost is one of my favorite episodes. 

At least they were fair in the split.  Sometimes they seem to favor one over the other.

And now a trailer is up on Youtube. Those who don't want to be spoiled on which movies are going to be featured may want to pass for now, as it includes some in theater scenes.

If you're like me (and I know I am), you pledged at a certain level that gives you an early online screening of the first episode. That screening occurs today. For those who go to a church that follows the lectionary, it could be seen as a treat for going through the extra long audience participation Palm Sunday gospel reading.

Some random thoughts after seeing the first episode:

* The new doorway sequence is a treat for the eyes. However, it looks like it may be CG (not that there's anything wrong with that). If it isn't, color me impressed.

* While the Bots retain their original designs, Servo and Crow now have semi-functional arms.

* Of course there are the voice changes. The most startling is Gypsy, who has gone from Jim Mallon doing a falsetto to being performed by an actual female woman of the opposite sex.

* The half-baked understanding Reptilicus has of regeneration inspired a host segment where we got multiple Servos, including Evil Servo and Southern Belle Servo.

* Some old standards that are making a return include the Invention Exchange and letter reading.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.
