Yes. Kevin, IMHO, has a wonderful singing voice. He can carry a tune,
and the tone is pleasant. That's what makes Kevin's Servo 'better' in
my opinion. It also works better in 'announcer' type roles. There was
very little in the episodes I saw with Josh as Servo that stood out
(other than some of the dialogue mentioned). However, I don't think
the dialogue suffered TOO much, because almost the whole writing staff
carried over. Whereas Josh laid a good solid base, Kevin personalized
and changed and made improvements, which I feel work.

Kevin *is* Tom Servo,
Trace *is* Crow,
but Frank*IS* the button!

        Beg to differ here. Carlin certainly doesn't just 'scream.' He's been 
one of the most consistently witty and subtle standup comedians around, and 
on several of his albums (notably Class Clown) he does some really solid 
political commentary as well. I saw him live a few years ago, and the thirst 
half of his act was a stunning take out on the Reagan years. His recent show 
on HBO included a nifty phallic reinterpretation of the Gulf War.

        As far as 'edgeless' political comedy goes, you're welcome to it, but 
I like mine with a nasty, vicious edge that addresses real issues. A good 
example of 'edgeless' comedy can be found among the Mark Russells and Capitol 
Steps school of humor-- you know, the court jesters, where the comedy is 
always of the "Democrats versus the Republicans Eternal Fighting" school. 
It's bland, dull, self-congratulating, and pretty disgusting.

        Sahl USED to be one of the more incisive comics around-- this was 
before he and Jack Kennedy became friends, wh\ith Sahl actually adding jokes 
to Kennedy's speeches. The result? Sahl became less and less insightful, and 
when Kennedy was killed, he indulged in any number of ridiculous conspiracy 
speculations. (At least Lenny Bruce had a good reason for falling apart-- he 
was being harassed by law enforcement agencies across the country.)

        For a good overview of humorof the past forty years or so, j\hunt 
down Tony Hendra's "Going Too Far," a nicely written history of humor that 
goes from Sahl to Bruce, to the Second City to the Committee, the Smothers 
Brothers to theNational Lampoon.

Okay sure while Josh might have been the creator of the ever lovable Tom
Servo, he really was not as funny or talented as Kevin Murphy.  And I
think Frank is a funnier and more fun 'mad scientist'.

I guess Wienstien's replacements really just made the show meet more of
its potential. Not to say he would have gotten better/funnier, but thats
spilt milk.

Murphy doing Tom Servo makes Tom the chatming big hearted (and
occasionally mean) singing happy bot that we all love.  Sure its been said
before...but I agreed then too.

I can go one better. My local blockbuster has 7 of the MN "flicks". I can't 
imagine this series making it past the pilot. 

By the way has anyone noticed the similarity between MN and a show called 
"Raven". I watched one episode and there were to guys on the rode looking 
for the particularly talented fighters lost son. His companion was I wise 
craking smart aleck who would rather use force than talent. Hum... This

I'd like to make a movie of the countdown to the movie, and perhaps the

Personally, The coverage is getting better. I think that is due to the
fact that Comedy Central learned an important fact from one of their
guests: They can get the speeches AHEAD of time. Their first night was
lame until the one gut was saying what the guy was just about to say.
Al Franken went crazy. "How do you know?" He replied that he gets the
speeches ahead. That was during the democratic convention. Since then,
they cut the show time down (2 hrs/night vs 3 or 4 for the dems), and
prepared a bit better. Next time, they should do a really good job.
Who knows, maybe they will get better interviews, like WITH the
candidates!

It is a little unfair to judge this film in english. The Venerable
K. Gordon Murray, Texas Film entrepreneur extrordinaire, bought the
original Mexican film, re-edited it, included scenes form at least
one other movie, and dubbed it with his friends. He did this to a 
LOT of movies. Ever see El Santo <Samson, in America> in anything?
A nearly unsung hero of bad movies, or villain depending on your
viewpoint. And BTW, despite the 'Bots cheering for the Robot, the
Mummy was most definately the GOOD Guy....

Hard to say, but I laughed like mad at the original. Perhaps they had a more 
attractive blender...
It could just be that I had seen it before, or perhaps Josh delivers his
own material better than Kevin does. I have always found the original 
version to be funnier, though.

Wow. You folks sure know how to make a guy feel old.  I've been a fan of
MST3K since show #1 (on the Comedy CHANNEL), and have watched the changes
in the show with glee ever since.  

For me, it was a *big time* adjustment hearing Murphy's voice at the 
beginning of season two. I mean, it just wasn't TOM!  Josh!  Baby!  Where 
are ya?  And when Joel lifted the milk carton with his face on it, well, 
I knew the old glory days were gone forever...

Of course, I've happily and completely adjusted to Murphy's Servo -- ok ok
ok -- it took a whole season.  Different strengths, different weaknesses;
but "better" or "worse" Toms?  Hmmm... I think not.

Frank *is* the button.
Josh *is* Tom Servo.  

I miss him.  Anybody out there know what he's up to these days, anyway?

According to an interview in the Minneapolis Star Tribune in December of
1989, the original KTMA-TV 23 episodes were done "live on tape."  The
jokes they shot out at the movie were totally spontaneous and unscripted
in *any* way!  They had not even pre-viewed the movie to even know what
the movie was about or how it would end.  They were surprised as we were
if they hadn't seen the movie at some other point in their life!  (And
who'd want to?)
