Top 10 MST3K Episodes

[Rev. Powell]

Anybody who backed the MST3K new series kickstarter has been invited to vote for their top 10 episodes of MST3K for this year's streaming "Turkey Day" marathon. Joel promised to go by this list (with the provisos that it has to be a movie Shout! Factory has the rights to, and the eventual list will contain 3 Joel and 3 Mike episodes).

Anyway, here's my top 10 (in order), a mix of the usual fan favorites and some episodes I personally love. Feel free to add your own.

822 – Overdrawn at the Memory Bank
424 – Manos
820 – Space Mutiny
816 – Prince of Space
308 – Gamera vs. Guiron
321 – Santa Claus Conquers the Martians
301 – Cave Dwellers
306 – Time of the Apes
303 – Pod People
821 – Time Chasers


(Yep, almost all season 3 and season 8 episodes---it just worked out that way).

In production number order, here are the ones I voted for (a couple of my picks would be considered fairly atypical, you have been warned):

102 The Robot Vs. the Aztec Mummy
301 Cave Dwellers
422 The Day the Earth Froze
423 Bride of the Monster
507 I Accuse My Parents
515 The Wild, Wild World of Batwoman
801 Revenge of the Creature
806 The Undead
813 Jack Frost
1009 Hamlet

THAT'S atypical. Probably one of my bottom ten. I like the other choices, though, even HAMLET, which I think doesn't deserve the hate it gets.
