Please join me in saying a fond farewell to the Boomer, who for eleven years was our brave and stalwart companion, and whose heart was just too big for this world.
No doubt he's now chasing every critter he can find through the hills of Valhalla.

Thirty years ago, within a month, I quit my job, got married and started helping my crazy friends make into a real TV show. Best career choice I ever made.

MST3K is where I head whenever life seems bleak and I am in desperate need of a good belly laugh.

When I read Watership Down as a kid and Fiver dies, I found myself weeping uncontrollably. My dad snickered at me for getting so emotional over a book about rabbits, I told him to put down his stupid Ludlum and read it. He did, and then apologized.
Happy Birthday to my friend and colleague , who after all these years can still make me laugh like a hyena.
This is my uncle, Doc Rock, who died yesterday at 92 after living one of the most compassionate and exemplary lives I know. And he was funny as hell. He's one of my heroes and I'll miss him.

I hope everybody really enjoyed that 1968-1980 period, because we're about to repeat it.
Casablanca was a delight. A roast if you will. One of my all-time favorite movies.
Twilight is an awful film but it's so earnestly dopey it was great fun.
Riffing the Transformers movies nearly killed us.

So what's harder to riff - a genuinely great movie or a genuinely abysmal one?
Today, in honor of 's birthday, we will watch a movie about a post-apocalyptic hell-scape filled with horny homicidal robots.
As is customary on Bill Corbett's birthday.
