The Film Thugs Movie Show

In the not too distant future...

For people of a certain age those words are the foundation of much of their sense of humor.


Comedy Central, at the time known as The Comedy Chanel, took a chance, and a rather big one. They decided that a public access show from Minnesota would be  perfect for national broadcast. Not just any show, mind you, but a two hour long weekly show that revolves around people watching a different bad movie every week. But for those of us who looked beyond that surface...we discovered the most amazing comedy of our lives.



A guy named Joel had an idea. Watch bad movies and riff on them... and 20 years, almost 100 episodes, different casts, and at least 3 different spin offs... we take a look at the fathers of movie riffing, the geniuses who gave us, Cambot, Gypsy, Tom Servo, and Crow... the men and women of Mystery Science Theater 3000!!
