Although Hunter's been watching each of her 198 MST3Ks lately; she patched her computer into the HDTV, which helps a bit. Ultimately, she burns the episodes to disc; but there's no real point to burning a couple hundred discs without first confirming that each episode is actually functional. It's a sort of obsession, I suppose. Apparently, she's in the lead, too. She's got every episode ever to air. Including a few which reportedly don't exist. Incidentally, having watched the No Fan Copy episodes, as designated by various MST3K sites [including SciFi.com], the world aren't actually missing much by having lost these things. They got off to a rocky start in Season Zero on KTMA in Minneapolis. And, if that's a pun, at least it's appropriate: the dickweeds with their pavlovian counterpoint dialogue for RHPS are actually a little better than Hodgson, et al, criticising Star Force: Fugitive Alien 2.
Actually, I don't have episode K03 - Star Force: Fugitive Alien 2. That one, Revenge of the Mysterions, Invaders from the Deep, and The Green Slime [K00 through K03, in reverse order, the first of which was never aired] are missing.
The "No Fan Copy" -- which was No Fan Copy when I made my list, but may no longer be -- was K20 - The Last Chase.
Many of the KTMA episodes were repeated later in the series, which might be why you got a little confused. I do, in fact, have Star Force: Fugitive Alien 2, but it's episode 18 of season 3 -- which means we haven't watched it yet, since we're currently [as I'm writing this] in the middle of 312 - Gamera vs. Guiron [which was also KTMA episode six.]
Some other repeats were:
There might've been more, but I'm just listing the ones from the KTMA episodes.
I don't think there were more though....
Anyway. That's pretty well enough to let everyone know exactly how psychotic I am for one night. Back to the nonstop MST3K marathon....
