I'm not a bot-builder like some of the fans here are. Tom Servo's body is a "money-lovers bank" and his hover-skirt is an up-side-down tupperwear bowl. Crow's...
Back in the good old days of KTMA and season one, there were three men in Indianapolis, IN, who had a similar TV show called "Let's Watch A Movie". These three...
I lived in Indianapolis from 1987 to 1993, and I don't remember that. Was that on public access? I remember the 800 pound guy who had a cooking show, and the...

No one loves MST3K more than me, but I gotta admit, aside from the obvious reference and similiraties in the titles, BBI hasn't got much of a case. I mean,...
So you don't think if someone created a series called Star Trekking or Star Warz! they wouldn't be sued? Even if they were in parody. The Brains have to...
... Sound alike names are grounds for lawsuits under trademark law, so yes, they can win. It ensures that I don't create a computer company named Hewett...
