So... the editing departmen was on crack when they put this movie together right? The best part was when Bud suddenly appeared in the resturont (sp).

First Post!!

Jason Of course I thought being on drugs was the theme of the film.

I think everyone who worked on this film was on crack. Loved the "Mike Singing" host segment!

So, why isn't this a sci-fi movie? Have the brains said "screw it" because they've been cancelled? (BTW, I could barely sit through this one. I much prefer the sci-fi.)

No. If you go back to earlier seasons, there have been experiments with non-SF movies: biker movies ("Sidehackers"), detective movies (the hilarious "Mitchell"), Westerns ("The Gunslinger"), even movies made from TV shows (like "Master Ninja"). They all have one thing in common--they make good comedy fodder for J/M&TBs.

The were required under their current contracts to have a movies on with some sort of science fiction angle. I think they choose this movie before they were told that they were canceled.

Well, they had people teleporting into places and that futuristic beach buggy. That might have made it Sci-Fi

The Sci-Fi channel had been a little lax in this and the last season; this is probably a symptom of that. A funny ep, and I was laughing all the way through. The "Crow Dancing" scene was priceless.

The skits were so so and Bill Corbett doing the "pony" was very bizzare, but this film gets funnier and funnier every time I watch it. I think Mike's serenade skit was priceless.

Buzz's facial expressions remind me of this funny monkey toy I had. His acting is a mix of Cagney and horribly awful!!

I love the part where the boss offers Michelle a "smoke" and Mike says, "Thanks, now I'm hungry and paranoid!"

Also, the end fight scene is hilarious. Again, Tom Pace as Buzz does physical comedy like no other!!

I just watched this one recently. Servo's remark of "Mike 'Taliban' Nelson" during the Crow dancing segment was kind of creepy in light of recent events.

You know what this episode needed to make it a classic? Michael Pataki as one of the various sleezy guys. GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOCH!!!!!!!!

One reference I didn't get: when the go go dancers are doing their thing during the opening credits, Servo quips, "Why does Noam Chomsky insist that these girls open for him?" Does this have anything to do with the music group the Go Go's (of which I know absolutely nothing), or is it the absurdity of a group of tame strippers opening for Professor Chomsky that we're supposed to find amusing?

“Shouldn’t we be in individual booths for this movie?”

“H.R. Puffnstuff’s go-go girl revue.”

(singing) “We’re the Bank of America, woah-oh!”

Crow: “I’m not convinced that they’re in L.A. yet.”
Mike: “An eighteen storey office building? This could only be L.A.!”

Leo: “Ciao.”
Crow (as Leo): “That’s my favourite breed of Chinese dog.”

“Man, if it gets any wilder here, a bridge game is gonna break out!”

“Hey, I polished my shirt for you!”

Blatz: “Tonight I’m gonna get good and drunk.”
Mike: “It’s good to have a dream.”

Leo: “Now she’s becoming old hat with the customers.”
Crow: “She’s a straw boater?”

Critter (singing): “Put your feet on the ground by and by …”
Tom (singing): “You’re living a lie.”
Critter (singing): “You’ve gotta come down …”
Tom (singing): “You dance like a clown.”
Critter (singing): “By and by.”
Tom (singing): “I hope that you die!”

"Everything I touch turns to flies."
"Ah! He learned he enjoys violence and is ready to kill like a man oughta!"
"We're thinking of adopting."
"C'mon, I just teleported here, it's impressive!"
"Stay back, he has a can of Grape Nehi!"
"I can't go out with you because I'm considerably bigger than you."
"Arafat in the 60's."
"Don't get hair grease on the pool table!"
"He's a tower of oil."
"Now sit like a proper junkie."
"Pantyvision."
"And special thanks to Eat."

"I'm a crummy Critter..."

Icky and unpleasant film that seems like an amalgamation of both "Sidehackers" and "Hellcats." I agree that Michael Pataki would have been great as Buzz! Not quite goofy enough to be a classic despite early signs (dune buggys!).

"So long, yak boy!" (not a riff)

I had a funny thought last time I watched this one: In about 30 years (or less, given how fast pop culture changes these days) people will look back on stuff like You Got Served the same way we're looking back on Girl In Gold Boots... Okay, maybe it's not so much funny as disturbing, but it's a valid thought

"I wonder if her dad will give her away at the wedding."

"He'll probably try to SELL her, actually."

"No, I bet Dad cleaned up since we saw him last and now owns a chain of EATs."

Blitz, I'm looking back on "You Got Served" from three months in the future, and it's utter drek.

And "Girl In Gold Boots" is what?

A couple more good lines:

"Kevin Spacey and William Holden enjoy the show."
"I took a toothpick. We can sell it for traveling money."
"Even the sex and drug industry has a seamier side."
"El Cabong is stalking them."
"He learned he really likes violence, and is ready to kill like a man oughta."
"The Mount Rushmore of ugly."
"I reproduced asexually while I was in there."
"The Great Mendecino County Garbage Heist."
"Time for my Jerry Orbach lesson."
"Well, it's sweaty and covered with Cruex."
"He's Samuel Johnson with a baguette?"
"I hope that in my own small way, I've kept my gold boots moving."
"To the G chord, men! To the G chord."
"Keep your gold bra filled with breasts."
"I'm very strung out, and in need of Mary Jane or reefer."
"Hey, I teleported here. It's impressive."
"Whatever, white people."
"I have to test my frying medium."
"Actually,it's a ham roll. I didn't think you'd light it."
"Front page of the L.A. Times. Forty-dollar robbery, nobody hurt."
"We're lousy bikers. Let's go back to law school."
"Look, take a stripper out of petty cash and get out of here."

Next time I get a MST3K DVD set it's going to be the one with this. Only saw it once but thought it was hilarious. It doesn't really bother me that it's not a sci-fi movie, it's just badly made schlock that deserves a good riffing.

Speaking of "You Got Served" (which I never saw), that movie is #18 on IMdB's bottom 100. Manos is only #23!
