I remain amazed at how little MST3K I know.

Let me try one :

What show prominently featured Mike and the Bots, in shadowvision, in part commenting to the effect “A Show that makes comments on other shows? It will never work!” ?

Nope.

I could say more, but it would probably give it away.

Oh!

They also had the same exact Original MST3K Music Cue for the segment. I knew in a moment that it was the “Real” MST3K, and that the implication was, that this live action show had gotten MST3K’s blessing.

> Yes, _Batwoman/Mole People_ was the first I was thinking of. The second was \*Fugitive Alien II \*which flashed back to _Fugitive Alien I_. **Audit** , I did not know that. I tend not to watch the Gamera stuff. **Kaylasdad** , the footage of two real lizards fighting with fake fins on is from _King Dinosaur_. So if they put it in \*RObot Monster \*too, then it qualifies. I just remembered that _Rocketship XM_ and _Lost Continent_ both use the same establishing shot in addition to lots of the same stock footage.

“Hey, there’s a ton of stock footage out there!!!”

At the end of the final episode the guys end up on earth watching a bad movie on television. This was the first movie roasted by the guys when the show was on Comedy Central. What movie was it?

Bonus: what was the original title of that movie in the UK?

Here’s one: What catch phrase did the movie **Eegah!** spawn?

Bonus: Name at least two other episodes that called back to that catch phrase. (There may be more, but I only know of two for sure.)

It appears in the begining of _Mitchell_ but that’s all I can remember right off hand.

Wow, I don’t think anyone else has answered.  
Spears!

How many episodes featured movies directed by Ed Wood?

Three Ed Wood flicks: \*Bride of the Monster, The Violent Years \*and _The Sinister Urge_. Four if you count the Rifftrax of _Plan 9_.

In the movie _Ed Wood_, one can see a movie poster for a flick that was not done by Wood, but which was featured on MST3K. What is it?

The other one I was thinking of is The Starfighters. The planes are flying over a mountain range and we hear a bellowing “Eeeeeegahhhhh!,” followed by a “watch out for snakes!”

There’s also a “watch out for Sleestaks!” in The Girl in Lovers’ Lane.

Why do the best shows get canceled in their prime?

Glad to see at least someone else remembers this gem.
