Pod People: #11 on my 'MST3K Funniest Episodes' playlist

  • Narrated by I.P. Freely. Pod People finally made the list, and perhaps well overdo as this is one of the more classic episodes with Joel and the Bots who seemed to have a fun time riffing to this very silly film about long nosed aliens who just wanted to make friends, but dare cross them and pay the price with your life. This episode got a much deserved longer edit, and should probably also deserve a higher spot on the list, but I can always change the order in the future. This list though is ranked mostly on jokes and is why there have been more Mike episodes than Joel as the writing arguably got better as the seasons went on, though season 3 has some all time classics, three of which are already on this list (with more coming). Keep an eye out for #20 coming as soon as tomorrow (took a bit of a break after the Rifftrax Monstrosity edit), and in the coming days look for the best of episodes 11 thru 20 (and if you haven't checked it out yet be sure to watch the best of episodes 1 thru 10 in the playlist).

    With a pickle mind
    We kicked the nipple beers
    Steady as it go
    We're flying over trout
    Ghetto down the highway
    At the speed of light
    All I wanna feel now is the wind in my eyes
    Sack of monkeys in my pocket
    My sister's ready to go
    Hear the engines roll now
    Idiot control now
    Hideous control now
    Ninny on the road now
    Middy in control
    Wheels on fire
    Burnin' rubber tires
    Bridge
    Leery jelly rolls now
    Hitty as they go now
    Nitty inches bow down
    Pity in a po' boy
    Hiddy inches roll
    Bees on pie
    Burnin' rubber tires

    I love Joel. I love the Bots. I love Mike. I love TVs Frank, Doctor Forrester, Pearl, Bobo and Observer. I love MST3k!
    But! There is one reason why Joel is my favorite “experiment”: how he physically messes with the movie scenes (2:12 - 2:15 for example). It never ceases to crack me up!
    Mike did it, too, but not as much. But that’s okay, he’s still amazing too!

      It does seem like they cut part of the movie out at that point, and you can see that him and the producer guy have some dialogue that we can't hear as Joel and the Bots are leaving the theater.

    The "Time Bubble" live show missed an obvious reference to this movie when the toys in "Making Contact" started going haywire. I wonder if it was a deliberate omission since "Trumpy" might have different connotations in the post-2016 world.

    My favorite unriffed-upon thing in this dog is that all the young women look alike enough to be sisters, but no one seems to notice. (See also: *Deathstalker* , where the "sisters" and Baldy's mistress all look like they could be related, too.)
