My degree is in communications (Radio & TV Broadcasting) and I respect locally produced and Internet produced media products. The fact that they were able to produce the show for a local tv station (KTMA-TV 23) and when the station was sold and the show was canceled, they managed to get it picked up by the Comedy Channel (which became Comedy Central) and the got it on SciFi - that is a huge accomplishment.

Griff, or anyone else, have you guys' seen the gangs' new Internet based project - Cinematic Titanic?; ▶ Reply to This

Rifftrax gives them the ability to riff on new movies like X-Men and Harry Potter.; ▶ Reply to This

I think my favorite episodes were "Mitchell" and "Pod People."; ▶ Reply to This

I was so obsessed with the show in the late 1990s I ran a news site for the show --- Appleberry. I think for awhile it was actually earning decent traffic. I shut it down after I lost interest.; ▶ Reply to This

One of my favourite riffs has got to be from 'The Final Sacrifice';

'Why don't you ask your friend when he arrives?'
'Ha ha, the joke's on you, I don't have any friends!'

That and the constant 'Rowsdower' references! :); ▶ Reply to This
