    I met Mike at a book signing for his novel "death rat" at Barnes and noble in Har Mar mall. Also had him sign the other books I had.
    It was the most hilarious time I've ever had. He was super cool, down to earth. Such a witty guy but he was just like a regular guy.

      Joel's great and all, but I have a very definite preference for Mike's energy and enthusiasm on the show. People just get so... *militant* about it.

    • @celticfox
      @celticfox 3 роки тому +8

      Agreed! I like Mike's riffs better, I have more fondness for some of Joel's host segments though. But overall, I remember really enjoying Mike's energy and episodes a little more!

      My earliest memories of mst3k were of Joel. I haven't seen many comedy central mike episodes. Just his Sci fi ones and the movie.
      I like each of the hosts in different ways, even the revival ones.
      Joel's Era feels like a cozy small time TV station late at night. Like when I was a kid watching a show real late at night. He has a nice laid back energy and I think alot of my own humor style is influenced by Joel. He has a nice innocent feel that as a kid I connected to.
      Mike is more like the fun uncle or kid I'd goof around with in high school. Like we're gonna have a great fun time but we're gonna be in trouble later lol.
      Jonah took a while to grow on me and I have to see more episodes but he is becoming a solid riffer.
      Emily I have only seen one episode with her and like her so far but I don't have a good sense of who she is yet.

  • @michaelparylak5649
    @michaelparylak5649 9 місяців тому +5

    MST3K is and will always be Joel's baby. Mike was a better character performer. Which made the stuff between the movies, while he was host, much more entertaining.

      @525Lines 8 років тому +2

      A reboot can be a good thing. The jokes Joel and Mike wrote were sometimes fairly obscure to their own generation. You think some 20 year olds out there are going to know what Shak-a-puddings or hamdingers are?

    • @TheColonelKaijuVT
      @TheColonelKaijuVT 8 років тому +1

      Well of course not, nobody likes Hamdingers. Though in all seriousness I'm really excited for this upcoming reboot, I'm a 90's kid so I only get a majority of the references because of the annotations they put on the episodes here, so I'm looking forward to what modern references they might make with the new series.

    Mike and Joel were both good hosts, but honestly… Mike was just better. He put a lot of emotion into the theme song, he had some of the greatest riffs, and he even destroyed 3 planets in the show’s canon, one of them being 2525 Earth.
    His episodes weren’t without creepy moments though… I’m looking at the Season 8 Episode 7 stinger…

  • @AvengerII
    @AvengerII 6 років тому +1

    Here's a suggestion IF they ever decide to bring back Mike in a cameo on a new MST3k episode OR Mike agrees to it --
    The original MST3k did a couple of homages to 2001: A Space Odyssey, the most obvious being the way Dr. CLAYTON Forrester exited the series as a "star child."
    I would suggest bringing Mike back as "Dave Bowman" was brought back in 2010: Odyssey Two down to replicating the Bowman spacesuit AND lightly making-up Mike to look a bit younger if they like.
    Yes, he should come back as a "space-child/god" or a rejuvenated "Destroyer of Worlds."
    Something like that would be the way to do a cameo.
    Of course, they could also do the same with Joel IF they ever decided/Joel agreed to a cameo as "Joel Robinson" (not as destroyer of worlds but the ultimate robot builder; maybe bring in new robot children who Servo and Crow automatically become jealous of!) but I think that's even less likely than Mike coming back for a cameo...
