Help Bring Back MST3K


LI-CON fans really loved our riffing tribute to Mystery Science Theater 3000. The original inspired and entertained millions for years.

Now show creator Joel Hodgson is bringing it back!

The “Bring Back MYSTERY SCIENCE THEATER 3000” KickStarter has already reached 70% of its goal–enough to have already funded 6 new episodes. It has a real chance of being the most successful movie/TV KickStarter ever!

I’m in. I’ve invested a bit of my money to get one of my favorite shows ever back on the air.

Now it’s your turn. Help us out, here. If we reach the 12-episode goal, there’s an excellent chance that a network will pick up the show again.

Thanks.

First, let me thank everyone who came to LI-CON. I hope (and believe) that you all had a good time.

If you couldn’t make Paul Levinson’s concert, you can still hear him! Just watch:

I’d love to announce our next convention, but we won’t actually have any firm plans until at least late September.

Would you like to become part of the action? ICON, our parent company, is always looking for help. If you feel that you can spend some time working on our events–not just LI-CON, but anything that we do–please email info@iconsf.org.

Coming next week: I finally announce the winner of the free Medieval Times passes.
