 Michael J. Nelson Mike Nelson's Death Rat! Reviewed by Rick Kleffel

 OrangePolitics.org : Campaign FUD against Mike Nelson
Mike cites “the perceived anti-gay vote in Northern Orange.” I fund the assumption that northern Orange is so homophobic as to vote for a Republican over Mike to be pretty ridiculous.
Mike begins is statement: “Apparently, a representative of the Orange County Democratic Party leadership attended a recent precinct meeting and told folks that a vote for me would be a “wasted” vote.” This implies that whoever spoke, spoke as a representative of the OCDP and not as a citizen expressing an opinion.
Mike Nelson’s e-mail newsletter item that started this discussion was incorrect: comments made at a precinct meeting were made by a private individual, not a representative of the OCDP leadership.

 Mike Nelson (character) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mike tended to be more aggressive regarding his captivity and making fun of the films, and was forever scheming to escape the Satellite or at least make the Mads look like fools, though he and the bots did share moments of friendly recognition with later villains Pearl Forrester, Professor Bobo and Observer.
In the final episode of the series, Mike and the bots finally return to Earth, not by means of cunning escape but by the stupidity of their captors who accidentally send the Satellite tumbling back into Earth's atmosphere.
The final scenes show Mike and his robot friends sometime later, now living together in a ground level apartment in Wisconsin, where Mike enjoys a bowl of rice as he sits down to watch a movie...which looks VERY familiar to Crow and Servo...

Nelson was a comedy juggernaut and though it would be too much to expect him to keep up this pace throughout.

 Mike Nelson’s Movie Megacheese
Anyway, Mike Nelson is a big reason for MST3K’s success, serving as head writer of the series for its entire cable run and as the host / human face of the show for the last 4 1/2 seasons.
But after the cancellation of the show, Nelson has to turn to other media as an outlet for his career as “a critic of megacheese.” Therefore, we have Mike Nelson’s Movie Megacheese.
Nelson’s self-deprecatory humor, something I had blamed on his co-writers during MST3K’s run, often gets in his way, although some of those jokes are pretty funny as well.

Mike Nelson, also known as Michael J. Nelson, is pretty well known around here.
For me, Mike helped make the funniest show ever shown on television, with MST3k and I credit him and the rest of the cast for my own sly humor and outlook on bad movies.
Here, Mike will talk about the salad days of MST, the new book “Happy Kitty, Bunny, Pony: A Saccharine Mouthful of Super Cute” that he contributed to, and even gives a few explanations on some esoteric riffs that the folk at the message board couldn’t figure out.
