 | | "Mitchell" is a watershed episode in the history of the classic TV comedy, "Mystery Science Theater 3000." For those of you unfamiliar with this amazing program, it's a ninety-minute program featuring a silhouette of a man and two robots watching a really awful movie and providing wisecracking, culturally savvy, and bitingly satiric commentary. |
 | | And "Mitchell," broadcast in the middle of the fifth season, is one of the big moments in the show's history; it marks the departure of the show's creator and host, Joel Robinson, and the introduction of Mike Nelson as the new host. |
 | | Mitchell is a smelly, stupid, boozy loser who the film tries to present as a loner hero against the system as he tries to take down a heroin ring and bust a trade-union lawyer who shot a burglar in the back (no, the two plots have nothing to do with one another). |
