Robots, Spies, a Femme Fatale and a famous Creature sequel.
This set contains some must-see episodes. The earliest two episodes star show creator Joel Hodgson as host while the other two star show head writer Mike Nelson as host. Three episodes are from the Comedy Channel/Comedy Central era of the show while the last episode is from the Sci-Fi Channel period. There are numerous call-back jokes and references to Robot Holocaust in later episodes of the show including the Valaria visit on the hexfield view screen during episode 201 Rocketship X-M. If you've never seen this episode it is MSTie required viewing. Then there's the bad, really bad James Bond knock-off made in Italy using Sean Connery's brother Neil plus Lois Maxwell, Bernard Lee and other actual James Bond movie actors. Top it off with a John Forsythe and Ann Margret suspense drama and a mediocre sequel to Creature From The Black Lagoon featuring Clint Eastwood in a bit part and you've the full range of what made MST3K such a great and eclectic comedy show.
110- ROBOT...
Sets keep getting better and better!
Every one of these DVDs are wonderful, but it is worth the price of the set to get "Kitten with a Whip" alone!that one is a classic that I haven't seen in years, but am looking forward to as soon as it comes out in December.
Another great set!
I'm mainly compensating for the bogus 1-star review below. These are some great episodes and I am confident Shout Factory will maintain their customarily high standards when it comes to the bonus items and image quality. Many of the episodes in this set were never expected to see the light of day on DVD (or any other format for that matter) so Shout Factory gets 5 stars just for working out the legal tangles involved in bringing these to us.
