If the phrase "Jonny doesn't care" from MST3K means anything to you then this week is even worse than you think. He was key to importing so many of the movies that made MST3K possible.

Gamera vs Barugon (Episode #K04 & #304)
Gamera (Episode #K05 & #302)
Gamera vs Gaos (Episode #K06 & #308)
Gamera vs Zigra (Episode #K07 & #316)
Gamera vs Guiron (Episode #K08 & #312)
Humanoid Woman (Episode #K11)

October 2026 isn't pulling any punches, is it?

[-] FauxPseudo@lemmy.world 6 points 5 days ago

We can all hope there is at least one more this month.

Life is like a party.

It's always the ones you'd want to stick around who leave first.

And it's always the ones you don't even want around who stay way beyond their welcome.

It has been a rough week for those of us with lots of Sci-fi nostalgia. :(

A sad day indeed. However, when I read the headline (and MST3K) I thought this was "TV's Frank" (Frank Conniff) and let out a sigh of relief he's still with us.

I too had to do a double take to make sure it wasn't TV's Frank.

You could have put that in the OP post and saved me the heart attack. ๐Ÿ˜€
