The Mystery Science Theater Hour
From MST3K
(Redirected from Mystery Science Theater Hour)
The Mystery Science Theater Hour came about because Comedy Central had reservations about keeping a two hour long show and felt an hour time slot was easier to fill. Episodes were essentially cut in half and hosted by Michael J. Nelson who was made up to look like Jack Perkins.
In 1995, when Tradewinds Television began syndicating MST reruns to local broadcast stations, the "MST Hour" versions were aired on stations that were unwilling to broadcast the two-hour version of the show.
