...Comedy Central, said the network was not picking up the show. Negotiations to devise a new format were unfruitful; two weeks ago, Herzog gave Best Brains, MST3K's production company, permission to try to sell the program elsewhere. The final new episode--a fond savaging of the sluggish sci-fi teen-angst epic Laserblast--will...

Best of all, there's word that cable's Sci-Fi Channel may pick up the show for next year.

In this teeming hellhole (lots of clatter and clutter), madmen get the best lines, and a heroic time traveler hardly stands a chance.
