MST3K Stranger Things Promo

A guess a side effect of the deal with Netflix, fun show cross promotion.

Oh, I really hope they do a lot more of these kind of bits.

Maybe we can have Tom and Crow beat Adam Sander to pieces with baseball bats like they did the robots in Episode 3.

I was reading the Facebook comments hating on the new show. Here are some samples:

It's like a poor imitation, like an MST3K loaf, pressed and formed. Brought to you by TryTooHard University.

i want to like it so much but i CANT ! it's terrible. I watched the 1st ep. I almost turned it off twice. I know most think its great. It can do no wrong but i wont be watching anymore.

Whoa ok....really need to slow down with the jokes...
You don't have to keep them coming that fast, it really does sound like your reading them.
The best parts about MST3K is not knowing if it's ad-libbed or scripted. This feels like yes...it is TOTALLY scripted and you can tell. It seems way too forced and I kinda just wanna go back to watching Pod People and The Giant Gila Monster. And you guys are picking on a good show? Thats not really how the show is suppose to work...
And why is Tom...flying? That's honestly terrifying...

All I'm reading from these Facebook comments is the modern version of this:

I HATE TOM SERVO'S NEW VOICE!!

'slow down' is very common complaint even from people who like it overall.

I kinda like the little rapid-fire bits. When they get into a rhythm and every joke is playing off the others it's a beautiful thing.

Yeah the pacing has not been bothering me in the least. There have been plenty of times on a RiffTrax where they talk over the dialog and you can't hear the movie and that always kinda bugged me.

Yeah, I really enjoy the show overall, but "reading as many lines as you can in X amount of seconds" is definitely a thing that's happening a lot.  It's kind of exhausting to listen to sometimes.
