Internet forums are disappearing because now it's all Reddit and Discord. And that's worrying. (www.xataka.com)

My favorite forum is still chugging along!

If you're a fan, you're most welcome.

If you're not a fan, you're still welcome, but you probably won't get a lot of our references.

If you're a dickweed- well, you probably won't last any longer than Tom Servo did as an Observer.

I wonder if there's beer on the Sun...

Well there better be! Otherwise I'm not going to vacation there!

Even many fans don't get this reference now, sadly. The DVD set it was on is long out-of-print and Tjardus Greidanus won't grant them the rights to re-release it. He also sends takedowns to anyone who uploads The Final Sacrifice to YouTube.

It really sucks when one of the best episodes of a TV show can't bee seen.

Yeah, I've read about his refusal to let people enjoy it. That's a shame as it's one of my favorite MST3K episodes.

Keep circulating the tapes!

This is a beautiful thing. I love MST3K, I might just join it.

Thanks for the recommendation.

Sorry, baby. No one rules the Tom Monster!
