This is the episode I "started" with. I watched MST3K as a kid, forgot about it, and got reminded of it with some tapes from a thrift store. This was the first one my sister and I watched.

It's not only my favorite episode- it's also damn-near perfect. Every riff's a solid hit, host segments are fantastic- The Train Song, and "I... Am... The E-Lam!", to the bots rewriting the ending.

This episode is a wonderful balance of energetic and dry. The riff deliveries are perfect in tone and cadence. The music in the movie ain't half bad either! I watch this episode to cheer myself up.

Now it's down to the Winners vs. Winners rounds so we're going with the episode we enjoy more, "Horror of Party Beach" though it was a tough choice. "Creepy Girl" is hard to resist but ultimately "SODIUM!" won the day! "Sodium, won't you?" 😁
