“Pod People” quotes from Mystery Science Theater 3000

Now, what happens when you go into your favorite karaoke bar and you want to hear "I Want to Know What Love Is" by Foreigner?

People vomit?

Joel

I can't bring them down! I don't know how it works!

Servo

I'm stuck! I'm stuck! (screams)

Joel

Oh, we've got commercial sign!!

First up on Hearts of Space, John Tesh with Whispering Firestorm. Then it's Yanni with SnoreMaster of Trafalgamar. Then comes bay area musician DelMondo with his Sominex Suite in B-flat. Then a synthesized interplanetary salute to Perry Como. At the end of the hour, we'll have information about the types of sedatives used by tonight's artists, on Music... from... The Hearts... of Space.

You know, often people stop me on the street and they ask, "What's it really like? This world of Deep 13?" Well, rather than go on and on, taking advantage of my privileged position as confidant to these two enigmatic dilettantes, I ask simply in return, "Have you seen Pod People?" And now you'll be able to say "Yes, I have seen Pod People." From plotting, to characterization, to cinematography, not to mention the unbelievable use of fog and syntho-rock, this is what you can expect from Deep 13 and the Mystery Science Theater Hour. Enjoy.

Pod People was made right on the heels of that enchanting blockbuster, E.T., which grossed over half a billion dollars worldwide. Pod People didn't do nearly as well, in fact it didn't even do nearly as well as Mac and Me. Oh well.
