As people have already said, it stands for "Mystery Science Theater 3000". Its a show made in the U.S. and played on "Comedy Central", which is a Television-cable channel produced by "HBO". Anyway, the show is about this guy that two scientists shot into space. They make him watch really really really really (x inf) bad Science Fiction Movies and study his reactions. Ok... Thats the story behind it. The show is really about watching this guy and 2 of his robot-friends heckle these bad movies. You watch the movie with them and you see their silhouettes on the bottom of the screen (which is a silhouette of the front row of seats in a movie theater). They make wise cracks about these movies, which can on occasion be really funny. On other occasions, I've fallen asleep. The movies they are watch are truly bad. Impressively bad. If they can find enough witty comments to make, they are worth watching though. Most people do seem to be either an avid fan or can't stand it. I'm one of the exceptions that fall in the middle. Wes
