Default Favorite Mystery Science Theater?

Maybe this belongs in LoL, but let's try here first. Google Video and Youtube have a ton of these things and a lot of them are hilarious. It's hard to pick a favorite, so here's 3:
Spring Fever
Robot Rumpus (Gumby)
Keeping Neat and Clean


The 1950's social engineering types are my favorites so far. Anyone have any favorites they remember from watching the show or diggin around online?

I have Mitchell on VHS...it was Joel's last show. Evidently Joe Don Baker is still pissed about that.

The one "Marooned" with Cary Grant, Richard Crenna, and Gene Hackman is awesome, too. Story has some parallels to Apollo 13.

Also, "Master Ninja," taken from the TV show with Lee Van Cleef and Timothy Van Patten is classic. During an intermission, they had Crow dress up as "General [Timothy Van] Patten" and start to give the speech at the beginning of "Patton"...with a lisp.

Edit: loved that show. but after an hour, no matter how awesome the jokes were, the movie was so bad you couldn't take it anymore.

One that I liked a lot was "The Magic Sword," a tale of a young man who wants to save a damsel in distress who's been kidnapped by a sorcerer. My great aunt bought this movie for me when I was a kid, and I actually liked it as a kid. Then MST3K did it, and it was awesome. I still have the tape and watch it occasionally. I must have watched it dozens of times when it first came out.

There was an MST3k where my they made fun of a infomercial from the 50s. It holds a special place for me since my grandfather was the guy telling the family about all the great new inventions for their house.

I really like Manos: The Hands of Fate. Another favorite is Teenagers From Outer Space.

This is one of my favorite shows of all time.

I unfortunately did not watch this series until they came out on DVD, so the DVD episodes are the only ones I have access to (do they still show this on tv?)

Anyway, my favorite of these is probably 'Timechasers', starring that dude with the gigantic chin.
