- Rather than "avoiding" the issue, I didn't think there WAS an issue, so they
- wouldn't have anything to say. I didn't notice any *deception*, they just
- never mentioned it (as if it were something in the past that has been taken
- care of and is no longer relevant to the show). Probably true. I honestly
- think few fans really care about what happened to Josh (cruel, aren't I?) so
- it's no big deal either way. Remember, the special seemed to be geared
- toward new MiSTies who would see Frank 90% of the time and Josh only on a
- rerun or two.
-
- I'd also like to echo the other comments about the show: too bad they didn't
- show more "behind-the scenes" action. That's really what I was looking for-
- ward to. And more clips from KTMA would have been appropriate, I think.
- Comedy Central was advertising the special as a behind-the-scenes glimpse at
- MST3K, after all, not an introduction to MST3K. (I still would have watched
- it, but the promos seemed a little deceiving.)
