Re: Push the "Donate" button, Frank.
They may hope for full season funding, but I think if they reach enough for three (which I think is a possibility), and if said episodes are good enough, then they could potentially get picked up but TV or streaming network for a full continuation. But they have two big hurdles going for them, and their both the team of Bill Corbett, Kevin Murphy and Mike Nelson. This is both in terms of competition and predecessors.
And while I mean no disrespect to Joel, I think it's a smart move to not reinstate him as the non-puppet Riffer. His voice is kind of...dry.

Re: Push the "Donate" button, Frank.
I've been impressed with Joel's honesty towards the fans' concerns about funding and casting. I'm on board with the reboot.
In more ways than one.
Mwahahahaha!

That's the crazy dude that lives in the crawlspace. He only comes out for MST3K and cheesy nachos.

Re: Push the "Donate" button, Frank.
Already at 1.8 Million with 22 days more to go.
It looks like we're going to at LEAST get three new episodes... Maybe more?

Re: Push the "Donate" button, Frank.
Well, Joel just announced his intention to bring Felicia Day in as the new Mad Scientist so....I guess he can just sit back and watch the nerds empty their wallets. :lol

Re: Push the "Donate" button, Frank.
Helping Felicia Day's Mad Scientist is TV's Son of TV's Frank (a name that certainly won't get tiresome if they say it over and over in a single sentence). In a shrewd casting move, they decided to cast Patton Oswalt in the role, instead of someone who could act.

Re: Push the "Donate" button, Frank.
Much to my surprise, it seems they've got the requisite funds (and then some) for twelve episodes, with, as of now, roughly two hours to spare. And more is being given.
I figured it wouldn't have gone much beyond the six episode mark, but hey, good for them.

Re: Push the "Donate" button, Frank.
14 episodes and a holiday special at the final accounting.
I'm totally looking forward to this. I wonder what I'll see first, the first new MST3k episode or the first new Venture Brothers episode :P
