There are no real rules for this thread, just try and list a reason why a particular episode should be considered and anything else you can think of.
- 112 - Untamed Youth: This is probably the strongest episode from the first season. Owned by Warner Brothers.
- 205 - Rocket Attack USA: This is most definitely the best of the remaining non-released Season 2 episodes. Owned by Parasol Group/Applause Networks Inc.
- 302 - Gamera / 304 - Gamera Vs. Barugon / 308 - Gamera Vs. Gaos / 312 - Gamera Vs. Guiron / 316 - Gamera Vs. Zigra: Any of the Gamera titles would make people "ooh and ahh". I personally think the best is 312. Owned by Kadakowa.
- 309 - The Amazing Colossal Man: Because Rhino's tape from 1996 botched the deal, and the VHS went out of print not too long after release. This is definitely one of the strongest episodes from Season 3. Don't know who own's it. It's a Bert I. Gordon film so it might be tough.
- 322 - Master Ninja I & 324 - Master Ninja II: These have always been my personal favorite episodes. Probably because I remember watching the show as a kid on tv. Both are extremely re-watchable. Maybe they could be included on the same disc as a bonus in a 4 disc box? Owned by FVI.
- 508 - Operation Double 007: The stretch run of 507-512 is the most consistantly strong grouping of episodes throughout the shows run, IMO. This episode is no exception. Joel in a smoking jacket + Sean Connery's brother in the film. How can you go wrong? MGM/Warner.
- 509 - Girl In Lover's Lane: See 508. And it's Public Domain, I think.
- 610 - The Violent Years: Ed Wood film? Check. Mike & the Bots best riffing of Season 6? Check. Public domain? Check.
- 614 - San Francisco International: Owned by Universal, failed TV show. Perfect for Shout.
- 701 - Night of the Blood Beast: IMO the most consistinently funny episode in the show's history. They did a whole seperate set of host segments for the Turkey Day '95 debut of this episod, those could be an alternate viewing selection on the disc. Owned by Alpha.
As you can see my suggestions are from the Comedy Channel/CTV/Comedy Central era. I'm really hoping that Shout focuses on these year as much as humanly possible. I know that many will sing the praises of the SciFi era shows, mainly because some of the newer fans of the show simply were too young to have seen the CC era as it ran. Please don't neglect that era!!
Thanks for reading

Member since: 11/26/2008 | | RE: MST3K: Future Shout Release Episode Suggestions | A Gamera set would be mythical. A complete Sandy Frank double set would be even better (since each of them in season 3 builds on the previous one). Thus, properly, it'd need to be 302, 304, 306 (Time of the Apes), 308. Then set #2 would be 310 (Fugitive Alien), 312, 314 (Mighty Jack), 316, and 318 (Star Force: Fugitive Alien 2). One would have to have five episodes to really make it work, unless Shout! really wanted to get wacky and decided to clear rights to the KTMA episodes of Sandy Frank (like The Legend of the Dinosaur and Humanoid Woman) for a third set. Much of the chagrin of most of Best Brains, that is... (just imagine Shout! releasing each of the MSTed Sandy Frank individually films in 2-disc sets, one with the KTMA version of it and one with the CC! I doubt that would even be considered, but it'd be worth it, certainly.)
