Last week there was a small Mystery Science Theater 3000 reference in the Major Spoilers Poll. Considering Comic Con International: San Diego just had a get together of all the MST3K people, I thought it was a good time to open this wound once again.

This out of all the polls was the hardest. While Joel had the very great wit about him, sometimes his deadpan was just too much. Mike had a little more of a presence, but he suffer’s just a modicum of “Ted McGinley” syndrome. But I say it has to be Mike, because he was in my favorite episode “I was a Teenage Werewolf” which floored me with the Zevon references.
This is like asking whether I like pizza or cheeseburgers. “Yes, please” is apparently not an option.
Gotta go with the original, the one that had the best (worst?) material to work with. But any MST3K is good MST3K.
Except the Flash anims.
Joel was for stoners.
Mike was for thinkers.
Mike every time.
