	The GENRE ONLINE. NET INTERVIEW - MST3K'S Mike Nelson
		Nelson has a very relaxed, but professional attitude and he was blessed with a face that makes one want to laugh at his witty and at times sarcastic sense of humor.
		Mike Nelson) I was a stand-up comedian and I had worked with all of the guys at MST in one-way or another.
		Mike Nelson) Some, but as I was still consumed with the writing of it and had been there for every shoot since the beginning, I had a pretty good sense of how it would go.

	Mike Nelson (character) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Mike Nelson is a fictional character in the comedy science fiction television series Mystery Science Theater 3000.
		Mike's relationship with the bots was very different from the one the bots had with Joel.
		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.

	Gypsy_3k and the Satellite of Love
		Mike hopped in front of the camra during season five right after Joel left and he was more of a rambling fool than Joel was.
		The SOL was disconnected from the earth, ran into the edge of the universe, ended up in going through a wormhole, blew up a couple planets (he had to go to court for that one...ouch), and...well, a bunch of other stuff.
		Mike usually writes most of the songs that are preformed on the show.

		In the tradition of Mike Nelson's Movie Megacheese, which featured endless takedowns of Hollywood glitterati, comes Mike Nelson's Mind over Matters, some 50 short essays covering up everything from "Portal to Hell: The Radio Shack Experience" to "Grumpy Floppy and the Flo-Flo," or the pet names of friends for their loved ones.
		Nelson (Mike Nelson's Movie Megacheese) is perhaps best known as the brains behind the cult classic television series Mystery Science Theater 3000.
		Mike Nelson has pet peeves, like everyone else, but his are ones that you wouldn't necesarily think about.

	Mike Nelson's Commentary
		Mike is in top form through-out (though he does draw more laughs during the first half of the movie) as he deftly takes these defects to task.
		Nelson was a comedy juggernaut and though it would be too much to expect him to keep up this pace throughout.
		Mike's work is more topical here than what he did with MST3K -He references Sumner Redstone and takes a deliciously wicked jab at Mel Gibson- which might date the effort in later years.

	Mike Nelson’s Movie Megacheese
		MST3K uses many people to make jokes drawing from a wider range of culture of art ranging from the roots of English literature or medieval history to last year’s movies or jokes about the physiques of the actors.
		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.
		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’s Mind Over Matters is a series of essays on various topics that assault his brain.
		As a big MST3K fan, I’m happy to see that the cast has kept their senses of humor, even after being shafted by not one but two channels in four years.

	Satellite News - Mike in N.C.
		Mike gave a few introductory remarks which got the crowd laughing and applauding.
		Mike did another game where he'd got a member of the audience onto the stage and with a pile of index cards dubbed his "Random bad movie title generator" he had the volunteer pick and read cards which when strung together gave the tag line to a bad movie.
		Mike then took questions from the audience and fielded about 15 questions, many about his upcoming projects, most about MST3K (favorite episodes, favorite characters, etc.), and a few about his past projects (books, commentary tracks).

	The Exclusive Interview with Mike Nelson!
		Mike took over for Joel Hodgson in the middle of it's fifth season as the host after serving as a writer for the show.
		Speaking of music, it really was Mike's first love, and he took advantage of his musical background by writing a lot of great musical skits for the show.
		With that in mind, Mike was kind enough to spend some time answering some questions for me about MST3K, music, books, and life in general.

		Nelson's connection to the 1989 film, in which Patrick Swayze plays a philosophizing bouncer in a rough bar, goes back to when he and friends saw it during a mission to find the worst film in theaters.
		Mike and Kevin are a really good team and I hope they keep them doing the tracks together.
		Mike does a really nice solo job on Nestor the Long Eared Donkey and that one is a great 99 cent track if you happen to have the Year Without Santa Claus DVD.

	Mike Nelson's Death Rat -- book review
		I must conclude that, if Nelson is not the funniest man alive, he is at least a viable contender for the title.
		Nelson keeps the plot moving so quickly that none of its quirks seem self-consciously quirky – even the most bizarre characters seem real.
		Nelson also has a good time satirizing some of his fellow Minnesotans.

		http://rifftrax.com/ The idea is that Mike riffs on a film, records it to an mp3 which you can then purchase ($2) and download and play along with your own copy of the film.
		I have listened to the beginning which has a intro from Mike explaining how to set things up and explains how you will be given audio clues in case it gets out of sync to help you line it back up.
		Also since Mike Nelson started officially full time at Legend Films they have started a series about what Mikes new job is. Which turned out not to be what he was expecting.

	Dr. Daniel's Movie Emergency - "Goodbye, MST3K" - Joel Hodgson, Mike Nelson
		Joel Hodgson, a stand-up comic and magician, created the show in '88, wedding the practice of zinging bad movies from the peanut gallery with a bizarrely comedic sci-fi setting that found him trapped in a satellite with a handful of robotic puppets.
		The Brains, led by Hodgson and head writer Michael J. Nelson, took the concept to amazing heights of hilarity, employing the best elements of comic writing -- brilliant phraseology, dead-on parodies, sarcastic jabs, tongue-in-cheek jingles, slick puns, and best of all, making an art form out of the obscure reference.
		You had to pay attention to enjoy it, and that's probably why it constantly confounded programming executives and kept it on the brink of extinction for most of its life.

		It's only $2 now since it's in "beta", although it's not clear exactly what being in non-beta would provide.
		The test clips aren't quite as funny as MST3K, but on the other hand, he's not restricted by being able to afford to air given movies, so he does have commentary for recent turkeys like Roadhouse.
