Explanation of Entries
Each entry starts with a code, which is its production number. Episodes are listed in production number order, not production order or air date order. The MST3K episode title is next, and if the original film title is different from the MST3K episode title, the former follows in parentheses. Also in parentheses is the film's initial release year, a color/black & white notation, the production company (if known), and the country of origin (if not the United States). The next field shows the initial MST3K airdate of the episode. The last column indicates whether the episode is available on home video, and if so, in what form.
Because The Comedy Channel referred to their first series of MST3K as "Season 1", and Comedy Central and the Sci Fi Channel continued with this numbering, the 21 episodes aired on KTMA-TV are referred to by fans as "Season 0".

Famous quotes containing the words explanation of and/or explanation:
“How strange a scene is this in which we are such shifting figures, pictures, shadows. The mystery of our existence—I have no faith in any attempted explanation of it. It is all a dark, unfathomed profound.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
“We live between two worlds; we soar in the atmosphere; we creep upon the soil; we have the aspirations of creators and the propensities of quadrupeds. There can be but one explanation of this fact. We are passing from the animal into a higher form, and the drama of this planet is in its second act.”
—W. Winwood Reade (1838–1875)
