Play MSTie for Me

Holy crap! I now have a brand-new #1 must-see panel for Comic-Con.

7:15-8:15 Mystery Science Theater 3000 20th Anniversary Reunion- From 1988 to 1999, the long-suffering captives aboard the Satellite of Love wisecracked their way through hundreds of cinema's problem children-those delirious B-movies of yesteryear created by twisted imaginations and, possibly, the need for a tax shelter. To celebrate the show's 20th Anniversary, join a historic reunion of cast and crew, including creator Joel Hodgson, producer Jim Mallon and fellow writer/performers Mike Nelson, Kevin Murphy, Trace Beaulieu, Frank Conniff, Mary Jo Pehl, Paul Chaplin, J. Elvis Weinstein, Bridget Nelson, and Bill Corbett for a Q&A panel hosted by self-professed "MST3K nerd" and comedian Patton Oswalt.

I knew several members of the crew had reunited in various combinations (Rifftrax, Cinematic Titanic, The Film Crew), but I never ever expected the whole gang to get back together. Most interviews I've read over the years just made it sound like there was an awkwardness or bad blood between a few of them. Regardless, this panel will surely be beneficial for all parties involved. And it's hosted by one of my favorite stand-up comedians, Patton Oswalt! As always, there are tons of other things I want to see at Comic-Con, too, but I'm clearing my whole schedule for this baby.
