Available on the MST3K "The Essentials" DVD and Outtakes VHS, this is a collection of bloopers from the awesome 80's-90's movie riffing show, Mystery Science Theater 3000
Definitely a reference anyone can make as long as you have pancakes. But my favorite is if someone stumbles on their words I say line and I start laughing.
By all accounts, MST3K was a grueling, unglamorous, low-paying gig for its entire run, but the familial bond between the writers and actors is unmistakably what made it great.
I like how the puppeteers never appear on screen and the puppets react authentically to the crap going on onscreen. Even though everyone knows it's fake, it's nice to still have some amount of emersion.
+Otaking Mikohani --> I believe they use the same technique that Jim Henson made popular in that they have small monitors they watch so they can more easily sync their performance with the live actors.
Robert Jindra My guess is thats because they only had seasons 7 and 8 to work off of before they felt like they had to release another Poopie, 28 episodes in total. While this one is from seasons 2-6, 109 episodes in total. So they probably just collected a lot more funny ones. While the second Poopie was likely more realistic to what things were usually like when they flubbed a line.
Mike and Frank were already friends and had worked in restaurants together prior to joining MST. That's why so many of these bloopers are triggered by the two of them making eye contact with each other. This also explains why so many riffs and skits from this period had to do with waiting tables.
Greg Lytle While I don't doubt they had fun, I also don't doubt that they also suffered as well. Along with many movies that were painful to watch, they also went through several issues like continuing the show after season 7 (where they had to move to the sci-fi channel). Still, it goes to show how much they loved their work.
Johndoe12211 After enough time, nearly all puppeteers do that. Look up some of the Muppets blowing takes. It's not the operators flubbing lines, it's the critters on the ends of their arms doing it.
03:21 - "IT IS A VERY POWERFUL THING." 05:02 - I love how that laugh comes out of nowhere. It'd be impossible to keep a straight face there. 05:28 - Joel blows it. 06:55 - Mike "Torgo" Nelson 07:11 - "LINE!" 24:23 - "SLEEEEP-- IN HEAVENLY PEACE!"
Gypsy- jaw falls off, not phased at all. Tom- Falls off the counter with barely a complaint. The Mads- literally everything, laughs and giggles Joel- calls waffles, pancakes, only mildly annoyed. Mike- confused during most lines, annoyed Crow- losing his crest, 2:18
Lol @ 24:23 "Sleeeeeep, in heavenly peeaaaace!!!" Loved these guys when I was 11-14 watching Comedy Central and playing Monkey Island and Ultima VI and NHL93 and listening to Nirvana. And dialing up BBSes. Man, those days are long gone. But they're still in my heart!
it's not very often bloopers like this make me laugh but these are hilarious. the actors and the robot failures are hilarious and everyone of them makes me smile if not laugh
28:24 Cray was *the* name in supercomputers in the 90's so the joke is that Crow isn't a supercomputer...he's not even a personal one. I know this because my family invested a couple of thousand dollars in it based on a hot stock tip from our idiot yuppie neighbor and we lost a shitload of money on it.
Lol, these bloopers are more funny in some ways than the actual show, its so awesome watching everything go too hell on the set and yet Crow and Servo still make jokes that totally goes with the flow of the show, the makers of this show really gave those characters life!
Oh my god, the Poopie VHS's! Could not wait for the mail to come when I knew those tapes were coming! Poopie 1 and 2! I always think of Trace "That moment and that gaffe!" I didn't realize how much I missed these gorgeous moments in my 20's knowing I was going to get my fanclub orders! Happy days!
How have I not seen this before!? I believe I've seen every MST3K movie (some, numerous times) but there are some skits in this outtakes reel that I don't recognize. What a gem!
*Holds a plate of waffles.*"Pancakes- oh I blew it."
luke bruce1225252 “I’m sorry!”
Every time I make waffles I make that joke.
IT WAS ONE WORD
ONE ☝️ WORD!!!
How do you flub that hard?!?!?
My favorite part is Kevin Murphy going "You nut, get outta town!" from off-camera 😆
*don't say pancakes don't say pancakes*
"Pancakes!
The way they stay in character when they break/fall apart is probably the best thing about these bloopers
Katie Kunkler I know, right!?
That's how you know they're having fun.
OK if you like this, you need to watch the dark Crystal age of resistance outtakes it’s pretty much the same thing
Yeah, it just shows their commitment to the craft.
5:28
*walks on stage with a plate full of waffles*
"Pancakes-"
*realizes grave mistake*
ImpossibleCakePro ....oh I blew it, I'm sorry.
You nut, get outta town!
WAH WAH WAAAH!
ImpossibleCakePro I'm sorry

I could be mistaken but they seem like they had a lot of fun making it.
Totally lost it when Crows eyes burst into flame.
Oh my lord me too. I watched part that like six times in a row and laughed like a 10 year old.
That scream that Trace let out is what really sells the moment.
And the best part?
That take was left in the SHOW! Cuts out before crow laughs and declared he’ll go to his trailer.
My favorite, and they all just keep laughing 😅
I like how they don't break character when they screw up.
I was about to say to say.
They are professionals.
+Julian the Apostate Their *actual* robots
they're*
Owen Payne Well thank god *that* was corrected! Who knows what would have happened!!
... 🖕
...
...
...pancakes.
Oh, I blew it. I'm sorry.
You nut! Get outta town!
I'm sorry!

Otaking Mikohani What puppets? Tom, Crow and Gypsy are Robots....
That's how you know they're having fun with it
i always genuinely forget theyre puppets. the bloopers are the only reminders and tbh trace poking his head out w/ crow felt surreal
+Otaking Mikohani --> I believe they use the same technique that Jim Henson made popular in that they have small monitors they watch so they can more easily sync their performance with the live actors.
InformalNarwhal When we master AI, the first three sentient Robots are obvious
I really love how the bots stay in character. Especielly 26:47 when Crows head is on fire.
"Oh my God. Well, I'll be in my trailer."
Me too...the first time I watched this I laughed so hard I nearly peed myself!!
Fun fact: I believe that's actually the take they used in the episode - though they cut to commercial before the trailer line.
Probably because Traces ad-libbed screaming was so bloody hilarious.
Kjerstine Bek i
That's how you know they're having fun with it
Oh man, their bloopers are just as funny as the show itself.
Lost my shit at 25:30
"We're gonna need that magazine, it's a prop you see..."
"We wanna have sex, Mike. In a big way!"
+Wayward Murphy the scene right after that is where i fell out of my chair
eric coots oh you mean the Burning Crow? Best scene in this reel.
It makes you wonder how TV's Frank made it through any takes.
3:25 My favorite. The way Forrester reacts is perfect.
"It is a VERY powerful thing!"
God, I love Kevin screaming "LINE!" at 7:27. Such a hilarious voice!
Frank's giggle fits make the world a better place.
19:49 Tom Servo has a heated gamer moment
16:45 it's still bizarre to hear them swear on this tape.
"Large... sausage.." The torgo one had me burst into laughter!
So funny... I just wish we had seen some of the Pearl era.
SmokingSpoon The Pearl era had not yet begun when this came out.
Robert Jindra My guess is thats because they only had seasons 7 and 8 to work off of before they felt like they had to release another Poopie, 28 episodes in total.

Poor Trace's hat. It told its whole family it was gonna be on the show, too.
As if I ever doubted, this proves how much fun it was to work on this show.
Greg Lytle While I don't doubt they had fun, I also don't doubt that they also suffered as well. Along with many movies that were painful to watch, they also went through several issues like continuing the show after season 7 (where they had to move to the sci-fi channel). Still, it goes to show how much they loved their work.
I love how the other puppets react to the bloopers in character. It just makes it even more funny.
Johndoe12211 After enough time, nearly all puppeteers do that. Look up some of the Muppets blowing takes. It's not the operators flubbing lines, it's the critters on the ends of their arms doing it.
"Well Kevin here's Irish, but I'm Danish."
that's a very funny line
I love how Crow and Tom stayed in character whenever something went wrong
28:23
“Cray? Crow!”
“Well, thank you for the compliment, but I’m hardly a cray!”
03:21 - "IT IS A VERY POWERFUL THING."
05:02 - I love how that laugh comes out of nowhere. It'd be impossible to keep a straight face there.
05:28 - Joel blows it.
06:55 - Mike "Torgo" Nelson
07:11 - "LINE!"
24:23 - "SLEEEEP-- IN HEAVENLY PEACE!"
15:28 I just love how Tom just turns his head suddenly.
@everyone moment
Yeah, that's the sixty-four dollar...WAIT! I've got an idea!
...
...wait, it's coming!
Tom Servo: Did I hear an idea coming on?
How did I not notice until *today* that Dr. Forrester has a white stripe in his moustache to match the one in his hair.
Man this show looked so fun to work on...
Gypsy- jaw falls off, not phased at all.
Tom- Falls off the counter with barely a complaint.
The Mads- literally everything, laughs and giggles
Joel- calls waffles, pancakes, only mildly annoyed.
Mike- confused during most lines, annoyed
Crow- losing his crest, 2:18
Lol @ 24:23 "Sleeeeeep, in heavenly peeaaaace!!!" Loved these guys when I was 11-14 watching Comedy Central and playing Monkey Island and Ultima VI and NHL93 and listening to Nirvana. And dialing up BBSes. Man, those days are long gone. But they're still in my heart!
7:27
Kevin (I think) from off-screen: ...LINE?!?!
Who knew the whole 'Line?' joke existed before the beautiful union of RiffTrax and Twilight?
Everyone in the movie business.
Or theater predating movies.
Nah that’s existed since the dawn of show biz
"wake you up before me go-go" made me laugh so hard. 😂
When Frank breaks the SOL title, somebody yells "hot glue!" This show was built with hot glue :) haha
*Walks out holding a comically large plate of waffles*
"Pancakes-oh I blew it."
Gotta luv how Kevin (Voice Of Tom Servo) Is just improvising the hell out of his lines as hes having a blast with these puppet mistakes XD!
Frank seems like such a soft touch, he has such Uncle energy.
Current status: "I'm not particularly enthused with myself today."
I just love how every time the puppeteers stay in character. It's perfect.
Specifically the spider bit. Clearly some box from someone's kid's toy but they just keep working with it.
Sweet, the MST Poopie tape in its entirety. No more will we have to deal with sliced up bits from this glorious outtake reel.
it's not very often bloopers like this make me laugh but these are hilarious. the actors and the robot failures are hilarious and everyone of them makes me smile if not laugh
I'm in love with how much everyone is adorkable. Everyone is so cute and hilarious! This video really just makes me perma-smile the whole way through!
My dad introduced me to MST3K when I was a child, and I remember having the BIGGEST crush on Mike back then!
Well... not to be weird, but your comment made made smile.
I have the biggest crush on Mike now lol
6:55 I don't know how they ever did this scene without breaking up.
'Pancakes...'
KTAVERILL Oh I blew it I'm sorry
Frank just corpsing during the Johnny Longtorso theme song :') My favourite invention exchange.
@26:19 - Funniest MST3K moment ever. Fun Fact: Ping Pong balls are incredibly flammable.
It's even mentioned in "Towering Inferno". Steve McQueen actually says it to Paul Newman and O.J.
I like how crows head piece is slicked back at the dinner table!
Almost funnier than the host segments themselves. Lost it when the wall fell in on the mads.
just that "oh..." as the wall falls... perfection.
"crow passed out, he's got sunstroke"
GIVE👏CROW👏SOME👏SUGAR👏2017👏
Everyone reviewing the replicas: “Now Crow’s a bit more fragile than Tom.”
This: “Tom fell apart.”
“I’m not particularly enthused with myself” -this could be in my tombstone
I just love how the Super Freakout box is really a Masters of the Universe Spidor vehicle box. 😂
i love how a majority of the bloopers come from the mads. they were always just the funniest
I can just imagine a common scene from the days of Ancient Greece.
"Oh, hi OH" *falls*
26:07 Oddly enough that's how the actual crime bill bang bang went in Congress!
15:35 oh, they brought in the theater Crow.
XXXsmart100 yeah, in that episode he's addressed as Timmy ^^
This illustrates why Trace is the best.
Folks, not only are we getting MST3K 24 we get the bloopers as well. Thank you Best Brains Joel, Mike, and ALL of the creative team!
26:34 Little known fact, but Crow T Robot auditioned for the role of General Grevious.
Great comment lol
Kevin here is Irish--I'm Danish--Frank cracks up--priceless!
28:24 Cray was *the* name in supercomputers in the 90's so the joke is that Crow isn't a supercomputer...he's not even a personal one. I know this because my family invested a couple of thousand dollars in it based on a hot stock tip from our idiot yuppie neighbor and we lost a shitload of money on it.

This is the funniest, ridiculous insanity ever produced. Freaking brilliant and without peer.
I wish I could afford to go see Trace and Frank's live show. Even their bloopers are hilarious
3:17 that would of been absolutely terrifying if MST was made in modern times.
More proof that mst3k is the best show to ever exist
"There is looooooooooove. There is looooooooooove. I love you guys." *looong awkward pause*
Lemon tree??
Trace really can do a good impression of Michael Palin
17:19 Joel I hate movies where the women wear shorter, or the men…
I LOVE MOVIES LIKE THAT!!!
3:33 A very powerful thing.
Had this on one of the Rhino DVDs... I forgot which one... but I watched this repeatedly.
Still gets me rolling.
@26:39 Fun fact: Ping-pong balls are ludicrously flammable.
I like how they don't break character when they mess up
Crow's screaming at 26:43 sounds like Spongebob screaming and the Goofy Yelp.
It sounds like Servo drops the n-word around 19:49, but I'm sure it was just meant to be gibberish.
same here
according to the captions he says nigga. ymmv
@@Tori-di2cfCaptions aren't always to be trusted.
*walks into room with plate of waffles, eating some*
“... pancakes...”
Most of those waffles on Joel's plate at 5:30 were actually made of plaster.
24:40 I had no idea that was Kevin until he started speaking lol.
The very rare blackface but for non-racist reasons (he was playing a leech)
My older bro had a copy of this on VHS and we would watch it endlessly.
I love how the first 5 minutes is just the set falling apart
5:41 is My favorite part
“I’m not particularly enthused with myself” 🤣
The best part is how Trace keeps making Frank just lose it.
19:31 really good transition
3:30 has to be one of the least expected bloopers ever 😂
0:18 "Hot glue it!" 😂😂😂
Oh my god, the Poopie VHS's! Could not wait for the mail to come when I knew those tapes were coming! Poopie 1 and 2! I always think of Trace "That moment and that gaffe!" I didn't realize how much I missed these gorgeous moments in my 20's knowing I was going to get my fanclub orders! Happy days!
9:11 Did I hear an idea coming out?
20:25 Interesting Note: Trace and Both of his characters are in this shot!
The crew sure is older than they were when they were younger than they are now.
I don't get it
David R Wait....wat?
_When did that happen?_
(you'll be asking yourself)
06:59 Torgo kills me! You can hear "Pearl" in the background on a lot of these.
i lost it when Torgo was delivering Pizza
How have I not seen this before!? I believe I've seen every MST3K movie (some, numerous times) but there are some skits in this outtakes reel that I don't recognize. What a gem!
RIP Abe Vigoda😔
Best show ever.
HEY 1990's MST3K! Buy some goddamn krazy glue for your prop robots!!! Jeeeesh!
