MST3K Funding & Investors

Mystery Science Theater 3000 was born on KTMA, a local public access station in Minneapolis, and after a year on KTMA had its national debut on The Comedy Channel/Comedy Central on November 28, 1989. After 7 seasons, the show was moved to the Sci-Fi Channel, where it ran for another 3. The show’s final episode ran on August 8, 1999, leaving many devoted fans yearning for more. MST3K cast members Michael J. Nelson, Bill Corbett, and Kevin Murphy have since gone on to create The Film Crew, a series committed to similar B-movie antics.
