You read that right, Traxians.
Erik here, with probably the most exciting news I've ever had the pleasure of news'ing: in celebration of RiffTrax's 20th Anniversary, we're going back to where it all began!
Yes, that is correct: Mike, Kevin and Bill are jumping back aboard the Satellite of Love in Mystery Science Theater 3000: The RiffTrax Experiments!

To say that all of us at RiffTrax are beyond thrilled would be the understatement of the decade. Like many of you, I Was a Teenage MSTie; thankfully, I wasn't too embarrassed when, after my first week or so working at RiffTrax, I asked Mike to sign my Rhino box sets!
And so now, to be even a small part of Mystery Science's enduring legacy brings me a great deal of joy. I feel I can speak for many others on the team who feel the same way, especially Sarah, Casey, Nik, and Peter, who all have similar nostalgic affection for the old cow-town puppet show. (In fact, Casey and I were college roommates, and we did an MST "homage" for our 400 level video production course's final project. No, you can't see it anywhere... probably for good reason!)
It's a full-circle moment for so many of us, including some familiar faces who we'll be working with behind the scenes, and we can't wait to bring these new experiments to you. Hi-Keeba!
Yours in the not-too-distant future,
Erik
