A Ton of Mystery Science Theater 3000 Episodes Headline Free Streaming Platform Shout! Factory TV

They'll send you cult TV shows, the most nostalgic they can find.

You can’t stream Mystery Science Theater 3000 on Netflix anymore, because they’ve moved onto bigger and better things—well, smaller and better. …Or smaller and mostly the same, but free! Did I mention free?

Actually, Shout! Factory TV has a lot more than just Mystery Science Theater, including my personal favorite animated comedy, Home Movies. The free, ad-supported platform is all about the cult classics that Shout! Factory has made its business to curate, and its announced lineup so far includes:

• MYSTERY SCIENCE THEATER 3000 (beginning with over 30 episodes)
• HOME MOVIES animated comedy series
• THE WEIRD AL SHOW
• IT’S GARRY SHANDLING’S SHOW
• FATHER KNOWS BEST
• DENNIS THE MENACE
• THE MANY LOVES OF DOBIE GILLIS
• THE SAINT
• FRIDAYS
• Gerry Anderson collection (hand-picked episodes from Thunderbirds, Stingray, Captain Scarlet, Fireball XL5, Joe 90, and Supercar)
• SECRET AGENT
• KEVIN SMITH: SMODIMATIONS
• Steve Martin Stand-Up Show Case, featuring STEVE MARTIN: COMEDY IS NOT PRETTY & STEVE MARTIN: WILD AND CRAZY GUY
• MEL BROOKS: MAKE A NOISE
• THE ERNIE KOVACS SHOW
• Werner Herzog movie collection, featuring 16 acclaimed films and documentaries
• Roger Corman’s Cult Classics (select movie titles)
• The Marx Brother’s A NIGHT IN CASABLANCA
• A ROOM WITH A VIEW (Oscar®-winning film by James Ivory)
• DEATH OF A SALESMAN (Golden Globe® and Emmy® winning film by Volker Schlondorff)
• HOOP DREAMS (A film by Steve James)
• Award-winning films such as THE LONG VOYAGE HOME (John Wayne), THE STUNT MAN (Peter O’Toole, Steve Railsback, Barbara Hershey), STAGECOACH (John Wayne), Bruce Beresford’s BREAKER MORANT (Jack Thompson), THE RULING CLASS (Peter O’Toole)

For now, it appears that the bulk—if not all—of their content is streaming directly from Hulu and also available to watch there, but you can grab the Shout! Factory TV app and stream Shout’s nostalgia-driven content directly to your TV if you happen to own a Roku streaming box.
