Turkey Day Binge: 24 full-length, high-quality MST3Ks from Shout Factory on YouTube

YES, it seems like EVERY episode is available on YouTube now.

But...these are from Shout Factory, the company that took over DVD releases after Rhino's initial stint, and they are probably the highest-quality episodes you'll find online.

Quality of the entire YouTube collection ranges from DVD rips to edited (commercials removed) SciFi / Comedy Central episodes. Some are very good, some are kind of rough, but hey...if it's your favorite episode, the worst ones are at least as good as an old VHS tape.

Just noticed that one of my top 5 favorite episodes, "Outlaw of Gor," made it to the Volume XXX box set and is part of the Shout Factory playlist.

...there are scores of gratuitous shots of men and women in loincloths, and during one, Tom Servo mumbles "Ma ma ma MITCHELL..."

"Mitchell" was definitely one of my favorites, as was "Horror of Party Beach." That one was a mainstay of the Saturday afternoon / evening "Creature Features" viewings in my youth. I have the movie on DVD and a TV rip that I burned to DVD of the MST3K version, but I hope that it one day soon makes its "official" DVD list.

Ed Wood's "Sinister Urge" is also another high-water MST3K mark for me. It's one of those episodes where the perfect "so bad it's good" movie meets a primo batch of MST3K gags.

Also, "War of the Colossal Beast" for the same reasons, PLUS it includes the IMMORTAL "Mr. B Natural" short. I did a TV-to-DVD rip of that one too,

I love all of MST3K, but I do have personal favorites, like yours.

I also love RIFFTRAX.

Looking very forward to their next live event: Sant Claus Conquers the Martians!!
