Yes, the second half Crow was better than the first half. My understanding is something happened behind the scenes regarding Nate Beagle, who was supposed to voice Emily's Crow and they had to redub several of her episodes with the new voice actor, since Nate had already recorded the riffs for those.
Getting used to the new Crow voice aside, was a rather strong episode overall and a truly bonkers movie.

4th episode has been released. Always hard to riff a movie that was intended to be a comedy, but they made it work. Host segments seemed a little weaker this episode than in the previous 3, but the riffs are still great. 13 is shaping up to be one of the best seasons yet.
I had trouble watching some of the straight kid film parts of the film because they were just so abysmally cringey. The parts with Munchie though, wow. That is a thing that deserved riffing. When he first shows up and everyone on the riff team just starts screaming was wonderful and I felt exactly the same.
ZacWilliam, I also like the decent from Gremlins to Hobgoblins being charted.

I KNOW. This is the one movie I'm looking forward to the most.
Beyond Atlantis was my favorite so far of this season. Perfect MST3K movie. Emily just nailed it, and they got A LOT of mileage out of East Eddie. I'm teaching SAT prep with my sophomores next year, so I kind of wish this was a real thing.
Episode 5 dropped tonight. It's the second Emily episode released so far and while the sketches weren't quite as strong as in her first outing(hard to beat Mother Crabber), the riffs were strong(The Richard Pryor's memoir riff really got me) and Kelsey's crow seems much better this time around, plus Jeffrey Combs in a lead role. This season is almost halfway over and even if it ended right now, I'd say it's better than the Netflix era by a decent degree.
Next up: Joel's first episode in nearly 30 years and the most recent movie MST3K has riffed to date(film released in 2019)

I kept being struck with the thought that Jeffery Combs at that age looked like what you'd get if David Tennant and Bruce Cambell were combined in a teleporter accident.
-ZacWilliam, this was a bad film that was fun to watch in all the right ways for MST3K. Good episode.

Good MST3K episode of an incredibly slow movie. There's a villain from the X-Files, a philosopher's stone, the voice of Rachet, some kooky New Yawk neighbors and a dull action sequence involving a dino skeleton. It's everything a Doctor Strange movie could be, if it was made over a weekend with no budget.
They sure made a fine meal out of the whole landlord plot point.
And Dr. Erhardt! Promising to bring back a classic host! Huzzah!!!

ONE DEAD GIRLFRIEND! Ah! Ah! Ah!
What would happen if you drained the Dresden Files of all decent writing, all acting ability and all budget?
ZacWilliam, I think it'd go a little like Demon Squad...

I’ve never been a big fan of J Elvis’s Servo but I friggen cheered when he came back. Also the old doorway sequence? *chefs kiss*
I kinda unironically enjoyed the movie. It could have been decent with a budget.
