Bill and Bridget, thanks for another great peek inside the writing process and how the movies are selected. I think it would be great to have another writer's room, even if just for a one-time thing. Maybe a video of an impromptu writer's room session on a full-length movie could make a fantastic stretch goal for the next Kickstarter? It would justify a fun reunion for you guys and give us fans a different kind of reward.

2020-08-28 14:51:46 +0000 UTCB&MJ were such a welcome addition to the Rifftrax team, and give such a different, but still funny, vibe to their oeuvre. I've really gotten hooked on their Sherlock Holmes series, and it's up there with MB&K doing the Batman serial. I cannot wait for the next one to come out. I am looking forward to more Bridget and Mike stuff though, like the "Instead of Tweeting" series. It feels like a modern version of Burns and Allen, with Mike just reacting to whatever Bridget is saying.

2020-08-28 02:33:49 +0000 UTCI think we have the beginnings of that, now. Bill, unless and until you can get away from the brutal winters. please feel free to gripe, with all the creativity you feel in the moment.

2020-08-26 01:21:24 +0000 UTCWhen Bill started talking about Minnesota, I got this feeling like he could do a show like Prairie Home Companion but with a bit more sarcasm and a bit less yearning for a bygone era that actually sucked. And you know, I'd listen to it.
