- You found Radar Secret Service. You know you can watch every full episode of MST3k at www.club-mst3k.com right?
Its 1950 with Communists under every bed and atomic power on everyone's mind. This is the superlatively dull story of how radar prevented a truckload of atomic material from being stolen. In this film universe radar is everywhere and can do anything - find valuable mineral deposits deep underground, locate large schools of fish underwater, etc, and all from thousands of miles away! Worship radar at the church of your choice. (from wikia)

“Woah! Almost ran over Kissinger. I’m gonna have to go back.”
8:36 The street that the tractor drives onto from the station has five lanes now. The station is gone and so is the Purina facility that was adjacent Railroad Street in Meridian, Idaho.
Idaho? Agriculture? Corn fields? I'd a never guessed.
Purina? What is that?
When I was kid in the 70s and ads for movies would come on TV, many time's they'd be "Rated R" but I always misheard that as "Radar." MASH was a popular show at that time, and in my immigrant childhood dementia I thought that Radar from MASH was somehow connected with all these "Radar Movies" that my parents didn't want us watching. OH, and then I learned English. LOL!
Lol
I was drunk off my ass the first time I saw this and for half the movie I had no idea Lila and Marge weren't the same person. Mike brings that up and I'm sitting here shocked, "You mean they're not?"
I don't know if it's the fedoras or the moustaches but I couldn't tell half of those guys apart. They look alike.
I had an mst3k sound mod for the original doom game when I was a kid and “why don’t they look” from the cop in the short is one of the clips when you kill a demon. I’ve only ever found one other one and I’ve seen almost every episode.
"Thanks to RADAR we only need to shoot 3 scenes!"
"You know son, 40% of all accidents..." "Ah, Shut Up!"
"The director's mistress everyone, the director's mistress."
ZyxthePest *THANK* *YOoOOoOoOo*
Arguably the funniest short in MST3K history. The way they take a dull, boring, educational short film about the dangers of driving and make it so damn hilarious - that's why the show is so awesome!
coupled with one of their most boring movies too
19:19
"And yet, many people who have lived through a crossing accident will say..."
Tom Servo: "Aaaaaaaaah!"
"Yeah, I know that kid, I played sport with him at school!"
*Slides pic of his mangled corpse wrapped around the exposed steering column of a trashed car*
That's one *edgy* State Trooper
It only just occurred to me, does he carry that around in his wallet?
For those of you who might not know, radar can't be used in saltwater and only limited in geology, since the radar waves are absorbed and converted into heat. In freshwater and archaeology radar CAN be useful, but other methods are often better.
The More You Know 🌈
Blasphemy! Radar does all! Radar knows all!
My favorite line is when Mike says-
"Trains are blamless, holy creatures"
ME TOO CRACKED UP 1ST TIME I SAW THAT
I think it was crow.
My three year old agrees.
That one got me too 😅
I love how, just after stealing a shipment of radioactive material, one the criminals complains of a sudden, intense sickness, ultimately amounting to absolutely nothing.
To be fair, the first historical death by radiation was only 5 years before this movie was released.
That guy was a hypochondriac.
Yeah, but it's just uranium-238 anyway. With a half-life of just under the age of the Earth, you'd need to be walking around with the stuff in your GI tract or your lungs (like uranium ore dust) for it to seriously harm you.
Probably a coincidence, most people back then had no idea how radiation worked
@@Hexen_WulfHow do you define death due to radiation? Marie Curie died in '34 and her death was undoubtedly due to years of radiation exposure.
Round things. Today we are promoting 'round things.' Half off all 'round things'.
Radar Secret Service! Or as I like to call it: suspenseful music being played over nothing happening.
But, that's entertainment. Isn't it?
I enjoyed the heck out of this this evening ...
looked thru all the amazing funny comments ...
it is like a trip back in time with all you wonderful
folks ,,,,,, so good to hang with you !
Finally got my own Tom Servo. The best friend a fellow can have.
"Lotsa guys look like me."
And in one, brief, shining moment of clarity, the movie recognizes it's essential flaw...
I like how the Radar Secret Service has a huge sign outside their office that says RADAR SECRET SERVICE, in case any passerby would miss that this is their secret HQ. Subtle, guys.
heck, just outside wash dc area, there are highway signs directing to the cia headquarters
Like they point it out “Radar Obvious Service”
not to give this movie any defense, but they're not a service that is secret. They're an experimental department within the secret service.
Hey man, taxpayers have a right to know. LOL
“ kind of creepy how there’s no recognizable name for the Chinese Secret Service, now that’s what you call a Secret Service.” -Richmond Valentine (Kingsman)
1:05:42 "Director's mistress, everyone!"
Spot. Fuckin'. On. My jaw dropped at that acting "THAanK YoU!!!"
52:43
"I didn't catch your name"
"I didn't throw it"
good writing exists in this film, but it hides well
spencer craig they did their best. Lol
Believe it or not, the same exchange occurs between Ralph Macchio and another kid in "Up The Academy". No one noticed.
Nobody would actually say that
"Only radar knows what the Hell is going on."
Couldn't have said it better myself.
Oh, Those Golden Grams. Oh, Those Golden Grams! Oh, Those Golden Grams!
"golden grams"? grams of solid gold? Or did you mean "Golden Grahams", the breakfast cereal? Just had to clear that up.
Choppers incoming?
Might wanna update your thumbnail design. Spike isn’t bareback anymore.
John Howard actually starred alongside Carey Grant in The Philadelphia Story and was awarded a Hollywood Star upon his death. Howard spent twenty years after acting to teach high school English.
Sam Newfield, the director, made more then 250 feature films during his career, considered the most prolific director of the sound era and would pretty much make anything if he was paid.
I'm somehow related to Stanley Kuffel
some say the ghost of the conductor is still waiting for ralf to tell him why they don't look.
"With a little bit of mayo, and a little bit of hard sahlahmi."
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAA"
Why don't they look?
Even three seasons before the Invasion of the Neptune/Chicken Men, we see Crow beginning to show signs of Roji-Panty Complex.
Heliohypnostaticstasis. Finally, somebody had the guts to say it.
This movie can be summarized in two words: GRAY BLUR. There's so little distinguishing any one scene or character from another scene or character. Even the music just blends together.
I cycle through some of my favorite MST episodes every few years or so, and this is one of them. For some reason, this time, I watch the movie with a more critical eye and I just can't let its flaws go. I haven't seen the original movie so maybe some of these criticisms get corrected. I doubt it.
* Towards the end, they drop all pretense of not repeating themselves. The agents have that plan to put their equipment in a helicopter to find the gangsters easier, which I guess might have worked if the gangsters stayed in the barn. But right after, the gangsters just drive around in cars some more, which had no problem being spotted before, making their plan moot. And the gangsters' plan was just to let someone else get spotted first; it had nothing to do with keeping themselves, with the bulk of the material, from being spotted at all. Both sides' game-changing, late-movie plans amount to "do it again, but more," and are both stupid.
* When they catch the gangster on the road and bring him in, the agent wasn't going to mention the picture that fell out of his book? Did they even confiscate and search his stuff?
* The one agent randomly has a stutter, then he randomly doesn't have a stutter. He's also the only character with a nickname for some reason.
* How did the agent know which apartment to go into when he was searching their place?
* When the agent got pistol whipped, it looks more like he fell asleep than was clubbed on the head.
* How did the agent know the gangsters were in a clearing, and how didn't they hear or notice the helicopter following them? "Radar Obvious Service," indeed.
* Am I to understand Marge didn't hear when Mickey got shot?
* Maybe the dumbest thing of all, the "Mickey left a little while ago, please don't notice that he's lying dead in plain sight right next to you."
* I can't believe it took two people to do the music for this, but thank you, Russell Garcia and Dick Hazard, for the Golden Grahams songs.
Finally, some tidbits from The Amazing Colossal Episode Guide (published 1996):
* According to Frank Conniff, they originally found and wanted to do this movie during season 2. Like, they really wanted to do this movie, but couldn't get the rights for some reason, and were pretty bummed. Then, during season 5, they were told they could get the rights to the movie and jumped on it...and realized how wrong they were. They were going to say "forget it," but they were desperate for material and this was one of the better movies they were screening, so they didn't have much of a choice.
* Kevin Murphy thinks he was the one who wanted the most for MST to do this movie, and also admits that "never have I been quite so wrong."
* Kevin also says that "The Last Clear Chance is right up there with my all-time favorite shorts."
You should get a publisher for this book you just wrote. ;p
(Just kidding; I actually appreciate it and read it all. Thanks!)
I liked this movie.
thank you for your service. i hate this movie.
Damn. It would look like radar is the electronic equivalent of a Swiss Army knife--it can do *anything* you need it to!
Except look into their hearts.
An existential feeling?@@dougjb7848
You know, I grew up in a house smaller than that car
"Trains are blameless, holy creatures!"
XD Oh Mike, you never fail to slay me.
If they hadn't slowed down to read those signs. They might have beaten that sign.
"Studys have shown 80% of traffic accidents are caused by you 4 guys"-moe the bartender.
As someone who works in nuclear power, I love this movie so much.
I love this episode. That train short is pure gold and this main feature is so awful. That film is like a 90 minute Adventures Of Superman episode without Superman.
+therealmanos The safety shorts were so much better back then. And I agree about the movie.. Their riffing could barely save it :P
The safety short Officer (William Boyett) on here played Sergeant William 'Mac' MacDonald on the 1968-1975 police series Adam-12. (Also appeared on STNG, Time's Arrow, Judgement Call ) And many others.
So exactly what comics fans are clamoring for.
@@teenystudioflicks1635 so is the original Munche from law and order?
It's also like an episode of Batman vs The Wizard without Batman *or* the Wizard... (or Gabe)
"Would you identify this bucket-full of your brother?"
:)

Comedy gold
One of the best parts of this episode is the outtake where Frank knocks half the set over by throwing one of those cards off the easel a little too hard.
Radar. You keep on using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.
Maybe it can help you CRUSH the Cheat Commandos!
Blue Laser It's diving me crazy!
"Wait, I thought that woman was THAT woman?" LOL!!! Nice to know I wasn't the only one who couldn't follow this shit.
I couldn't follow it because most of the guys all look alike.
Henry Kissinger in cameo appearance changing a tire. Now that's great casting!
The short is way better than the actual film this time around.
they really did great on the short.
This film didn't have enough people talking about radar.
and the soundtrack didn't have near enough cowbell...
This is the first time I wish the short before the movie was actually longer than the movie.
Why don't they look?
That short dragged on way longer than it needed to. 25 minutes I'll never get back.
Props to the uncle trying to take the fall for the kid driving out, real quality guy.
Amazing that they could drag that many laughs out of that depressing short.
I accidentally watched a sad “lifetime” movie (or whatever they’re called) glad I can come to literally ANY mst3k episode and feel so much better.
Helps me when I feel super down too.
OH man, a Lifetime of a Hallmark movie would be so funny as a mst3k episode. Hang in there, hope things are better now.
@@j.rebekah8605
Eh, actually I had a pretty bad day. Sometimes it rains and sometimes the sun shines. I’m just waiting for the clouds to part. Hope you’re doing well.
Reading these hilarious comments just adds to the fun of this movie.
Man, if they had radar that unrealistically good in the short those people would obviously have never been hit by trains. #whydontthetlook
Jamie Kamihachi Charles Bronson wants to know!!
Peggy Lee runs the mob, Lana Turner runs the restaurant and David Niven runs the show! A star studded affair!
Lol
The guy playing Mickey Moran was actually the lead in a really great film noir called "Detour"...You'd never know it from his performance in this laugher.
I never saw this episode before, even after being a MST3K fan for decades. It was a great showing by Mike and the Bots.
I also never realized the importance of radar! I'm going to go out and buy some today!
Secret Service radar patrol? I thought this was gonna be the Lee Harvey Oswald story - you know...the years before he went to Russia.
I have a feeling that Radar Secret Service is going to have a lot of trouble staying secret if all they use are cars with chrome acorns on the roof and loud, low-flying helicopters.
The huge sign that says RADAR SECRET SERVICE outside their office doesn't help with keeping a low profile, either.
BugPope "More like 'Radar Obvious Service'."
Hylian Fox Zing!
Now is not a secret anymore.
@@eviljoel I'd say the car with rice cooker on top of it is a pretty big giveaway.
Yes, Radar gives us EXACT locations of Random metallic objects. I LOVE how RADAR uses Graviton's, and Graviolis to Amplify the RADAR signal that is Present in everyday life, and turns those RADAR trace residuals into Readable RADAR informatioin that the RADAR recognition and decription device can then De-RADAR-ify. RADAR!!!!!!!!! or DIE..
GIVE ME RADAR OR GIVE ME DEATH
LOL
"would you identify this bucket full of your brother?" LOL
The best riff of all!
I was a teenager on a farm and I always had lots of chores. We also drove by age of 11 or 12, something local cops didn't find amusing. Nice pun on name Exclusive Films. Radar was awesome here.
40% of this movie represents nearly half of my love for radar!!!
They've confused radar with metal detectors and television cameras.
Maybe, maybe not...there’s millimeter wave which is pretty close. But even that can’t work like it does in the movie.
As well as Geiger counters
@@alexiaNBC This movie taught me that guns are radioactive
You don't deserve radar!
@@bobn2056 This guy is right. I don't have the faith.
Ya gotta love the people that love MST3K!!
I think season 5 might have been the peak of the original series, with seasons 4-6 being the best "range" overall.
"I surrender, Hal. I give up. What's the charge?" "HA HA MANSLAUGHTER!"
"MY LIFE IS A LIE!"
"Hot plates are cool. They're boss."
"You know I got a feeling one of these characters is about to see their own intestines." Definitely my favorite line in this whole episode!
Look it's the guy that gave The Brute Man the wrong chemistry answers
It is! I'd have never noticed!
Do you mean Thomas Dewey ?
Son of a gun
this episode has some of the best riffs ever...WHY DON'T THEY LOOK???!!!
I was a signals guy in the Army making this even more hilarious to me how they just go off the rails about RADAR
today my teacher started talking about how amazing radar was and I just lost it
Gypsy: "HEY! MY BRA!!!"
I almost spit beer all over my computer at the sound of that! LOL!
What would Tom Servo be doing with pantyhose, rob a bank?
I was recently in a really bad car wreck. Could've been brown bread. But that short about traffic safety was just great. The MST3K bois always make things better :)
Hope you've recovered fully!
Get help! The cop won't leave!
Wow! RADAR - acronym for Radio Detection and Ranging - nothing in this movie that has to do w/radar is possible. Radar isn't a metal detector, you can't sit in your office & keep tabs, visually, on your agents' cars on the highways. Radar is simply bouncing radio waves through the air and, when there is an object in the path of the waves, they bounce back, letting you know there is something there and the distance whatever the waves hit is from the source. This flick makes radar look like some sort of magical technology that can do anything! What a goof!
You have to love how stupidly optimistic movies of this era were, where even the most mundane of technological advances would mean the end of the world's major problems.
It was a different time, the idea that machines could make our lives easier was a very new one.
Jessica Nichols-Vernon Not really, the optimism about technology had been a thing since the 19th century, at least.
Hylian Fox Just be thankful Robert Lippert didn't make a movie about another amazing technological discovery of that era, FM radio!
+Hylian Fox Stupid optimism happens in any era. "We used to just drain blood or cut off limbs and pray for the best. Now we use leeches."
+Hylian Fox Especially now that many new technologies are seen as the latest catalyst of the downfall of civilization.
"40% of all accidents are caused by women's hinders" Crow 😂
Hugh Jass, Mike Hunt, Harry Cox, Dixie Recht, Jack Meoff, Ben Dover and that old standby Phil McCrakup.
Some movies have a F-bomb counter, this one gets a "radar" counter.
At this time they didn't know radar all that well. All they could do was to find the bleeps, the sweeps and the creeps.
Now, through the miracle of radar, we have microwave ovens.
Great reference R.E.D.
R.E.D. uh, plus it seems as if they confused RADAR waves with television which is transmitted via radio waves, also the basis for RADAR but with differences that these kids don't understand while RCA, NBC, CBS, etc. all do.
The what, the what, and the what? ;)
@@MrKmanthie , he was making a reference to the movie "Spaceballs."
Thanks for using your channel to upload great pieces of humor filled videos. People like you and analog kid make this world just a little more bearable.
"I always forget, he goes to jail on Tuesdays!".
RADAR did my taxes, deflead the dog, and cured me of my bunion pain!
Amazing!
Sorry to hear about your challenges. I'm glad to hear that MST3K helps. It certainly helps me, also. Sometimes, you just really need to laugh.
I think the beginning short was one of the better ones. So much energy!
I know him! I ran with him on the track team.
Do you know him like this!?
"I'm making choo-choos in my pants!" I love Trace/Crow.

This isn't Trace, this is the real Crow "Bill Corbett" !
@@PranksterGL25 um, did you look at the credits? It's Trace.
Hehehe, such a good episode for a very dull movie! You can't beat the short, though. "Why don't they look" has to be one of my favorites. lol And I love the Goodfella's helicopter part, too. Good thing we have Hinder 90 to protect us! :) Thanks for the upload.
This is one of my favorite episodes. Never gets dull or boring.
I've watched this episode five times. This film is so boring and inconsequential I still can't remember a damn thing about it!
All I remember is that RADAR is apparently the magical solution to all problems in the world.
***** Radar taught me the true meaning of love.
BugPope Radar caught my neighbor's tumor!
This movie is actually amazingly prescient. It imagined surveillance drones decades before they were actually invented.
That's the power of Hypno Helio Static Stasis!
This is one of my new favs, after "Mitchell" and "Warrior of the Lost World," of course.
Radar can't look into their hearts, sir
With all those dopey jokes made about that metal sphere on top of the agents' car, you could make a drinking game out of it. Anything to make this turgid turkey more bearable.
I was actually waiting for them to call it a rice cooker...finally they did
An interesting thing about this movie is how the bad guys are actually the most likeable characters. Do any of the RSS guys even have names?
God knows they don't have any personalities.
Do 🐷 even need names?
"You mean fly over the city in a plane?"
"No. A duck!" retorts Tom Servo (Kevin Murphy).
And the eerie thing is, is that radar spelled backwards is.............RADAR!!
Tobor is "radar" spelled with different letters!
+The Rogue Wolf you're too rogue
Stupid palindromes !

Look they should add a Toho Japanese poor disaster movie call’ed The Last Days Of Planet Earth on MST3K episode!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
HAHAHA I SWEAR THE DEEP 13 ERA IS THE BEST! IM DYING HAHA
"It's Big Daddy's Birthday...I've got life in me Big Daddy!"
Legend has it the chase sequence continues to this day.
"Peace on Earth was all it said" awesome "One Tin Solider" reference
Brilliant idea to preview Johnny Depp's "Mortdecai" with an MST3K movie. It makes "Radar Secret Service" look like "Die Hard."
This is speaking from my memories as a tyke watching these in the 90s, combined with my current retrospective on this watch-through..as you'll guess by being on 520, i'm halfway through watching every episode..
goddamn, if a more perfect show was never made haha. I just miss this show so i love both hosts & enjoy it all, even watching the ones so shiesty the bots can't save it (hercules & being from another planet come to mind)
though love Rifftrax, really glad they still are cracking us up
Joel was more of the inventing guy. Once he left, there weren't any more good ideas for inventions so they only did it for the first five Mike episodes.
Last time I checked, you can't view images on radar. Lidar can get you an image but it looks nothing like that and I doubt they had it in the 40's or 50's.
Radar can't see into their hearts, sir.
"Here's the dope." "Get it to Kurt Cobain's house." Yeah, that's not going to be funny much longer.
...well, you know, courtney, that low-life, might want it; for herself or her kid!
The music in this movie is so all over the place, it sounds like Carl Stalling. I kept expecting Bugs Bunny to show up
