8/10

A good, but uneven reboot

I was initially skeptical at how the reboot of MST3K would be handled, but to my surprise, its a good reboot. While not perfect or nearly as good as the original 1988- 1999 run, but its a good way to introduce new generations of the show. The movie Reptilicus is a good choice for riffing too. The host segments are a little weak (except for the rap one that was a pretty good one).

It may take a little for older fans like me to get rid of this new reboot, but I'm impressed that the show is back.

Rating: 8/10 (Out-of-100): 79%
