I put the D in RICHARSON
I tried to watch the new MST3k and like it...I really did. Part of me was thinking they might have the new guys voicing Servo and Crow do their own takes. And I didn't like the thought. But then I heard the closebutnotquite impersonations...and it's like watching Looney Tunes without Mel Blanc. Or the Muppets in the new movies...it just ain't right. Not a huge Jonah Ray fan either. Like I said, I tried. Maybe it gets better. Maybe the first episode was just rough. I may go in and try some more. But EVERYONE just seemed really fanboy on the whole concept. It smelt funny. Like instead of trying to develop their own pace and chemistry they were all doing fan service to the original. The jokes were nonstop. If you watch an episode of the original...they let things breathe. They let you actually watch the movie at times. This was like a bad drama class doing a show in the barn. lots of noise and very little funny. I admire the effort and I hope it gets better, but really the whole thing made me pine for the old days, when it should have had me celebrating a return of sorts.
It's these two I'm having the hardest time getting used to actually...
