Happy Birthday, Rifftrax!
Mike Nelson's post Mystery Science Theater 3000 creation has evolved and grown mightily over the past half decade. The business has grown far beyond crafting downloadable podcasts for cinematic travesties (and classics - see their Casablanca riff for that) to doing live shows and unleashing hundreds of short subjects, including epics like The Calendar: How to Use It and the absolutely horrifying At Your Fingertips: Grasses.
To celebrate, the Riffers have crafted a five minute best-of reel.
Wither Torchwood?
OK, I know I'll keep watching it, but Miracle Day is looking more and more like those sloppy, dull episodes from seasons 1 and 2 that made the program such a slog before Children of the Earth. We're deep into conspiracy by numbers, with tone-deaf comments on American politics, the absolutely puzzling edification of a convicted child murderer as a mainstream hero and some, to be nice, uneven acting from the new cast members. Maybe this week will pick up speed. Please?
