Geeze, I used to be able to recite the entire cast and crew of this show 
backwards in my sleep!  VttBotS was one of my all time favorite shows,
even including the season where the giant seaweed monsters started juggling
the Seaview.

I can identify with Gypsy, having once had a major heartache for Mr. Basehart

I saw the list of the new shows and I wanted to get some info, so I dug into
the Psychotronic encyclopedia, and found some news on a couple of films:

Tormented: NO!!!! Not more Bert I. Gordon <Mr. BIG> films! This is supposed
to be his most "adult" horror film, and is described as Tacky fun. 
This should be interesting....

Hercules vs. the Capticve Women: Released with the vastly superior 
"Herc. and the Haunted World", this was re-titled "Herc. And the Huanted 
Women" <NOT A TYPO>. Herc goes to Atlantis, <ruled by Fay Spain> and fights
a weird upright dragon. He then sinks the island. Sounds like a good time, to
me !!!!!

Could be. He was writing for the show "Clash" on Comedy Central a while back,

I've been averaging 6 weeks.  I also ordered the poster, along with the
set of bumper stickers and the "fluid containment vessel" (coffee mug - 
which is gorgeous, BTW).  The poster arrived more than a week before the 
ires of the order, even though they were shipped on the same day.

I've noticed that it takes 4 weeks for my checks to be cashed, which means
they get a LOT of mail (and many don't have that many people to open it).

On the order form, it does say to address it to 'Cat', which must alert 
the person opening it that it is an order (that might speed things up a bit).

I recently ordered (and received) the "Play MST for me" video from Best Brains.
This video contains a number of songs from various MST sketches including the
Sandy Frank song, Tibby, and Patrick Swayze (sic) Christmas. In my opinion this
is a "must have" for serious misties. The video and audio quality is excellent.
Now, if they'd only sell videos for ALL the movies we'd be set...

Whatever it is, it is definitely excellent proof that talented
screenwriters can be piss-poor novelists.  I just finished it and, with
a very few exceptions, the only decent parts are those lifted from the
series itself.  The newly written sections are boring, not funny, and
remarkably devoid of the wit and humanity often exhibited in the series.

I'll probably buy the other book, just because I'm such a fan of RD, but
don't expect the level of the fiction to be much above a party political
broadcast.

I always assumed the name came from a song.  I think it's called, "Another
Saturday Night"; it's been covered by so many people, I have no idea who
did it first, and there's a snippet in there about "a cat named Frankenstein".

From the other music references in the show, it seems like a likely place for
the name to have come from.

Oops, wrong button.

Ahem.  His light bee wouldn't turn to powder because it was from the future. 
:-)  Of course, why didn't they turn to powder when they went into the past, if
it worked the other way around?

I don't know about their addiction to John Wayne, but I figured they must
reproduce by assembling their young, the way any sensible robot would
reproduce.  Naturally, they would be quick about this.

Personally, I think the scutters are one of the most likeable parts of the
show.
