Mystery Science Theater 3000 (abbreviated MST3K) was an awesome television show that ran from 1989 to 1999. The show's premise involved a man trapped in space who was forced to watch horrible B movies with his robot friends while a mad scientist monitored his thoughts from Earth. The real purpose of the show was to make fun of some of the worst movies imaginable.
The show spanned many episodes, and a feature film, which was still very funny but actually shorter than an episode of the show. In addition to the main movies, the cast would occasionally watch a short film first. The best of those is undoubtedly* Junior Rodeo Daredevils, and this has been scientifically proven.**
Rabid MST3K fans, or "MiSTies" as they are referred to, include forum members DarkMaze and Grimmriffer.
