The crowdfunded 14-episode revival season of Mystery Science Theater 3000, the ’90s cult favorite about making fun of bad movies with your robot pals, will officially hit Netflix on April 14. The show’s deal with Netflix was announced by series creator Joel Hodgson last summer, and Hodgson revealed the launch date to the project’s Kickstarter backers early this morning. Production wrapped on the new season back in October, and in recent weeks, small groups of Kickstarter backers have gotten to see the premiere episode at a handful of “Red Carpet Kickstarter Screening” events.
