Hangin' Out With RiffTrax: GUMBY: THE MOVIE
Added 2021-05-17 16:14:14 +0000 UTCThe video is now available! Watch with the embedded stream above, or download it here. EDIT: Updated the video to include Kevin's avatar, which was inadvertently hidden in the previous edit.
This month's Super and Ultra Traxian exclusive webinar focuses on our most claymation movie to date: 1995's Gumby: The Movie. The old Gumby shorts were always a favorite in the MST3K days, so you can imagine how excited we are to take on Gumby and his pal Pokey in feature-length form. We had much to discuss about this delightfully odd offshoot of the classic TV show.
Super and Ultra Traxians get the extra benefit of being in the Live Zoom Chat and submit questions through the Q&A system, and the Video is now available to Traxians at all levels.
Enjoy!

2021-06-01 21:44:56 +0000 UTCThis looks like a fun riff and I was absolutely delighted by how many questions Mike had about the Gumbyverse. Can’t wait to watch!

2021-05-27 15:10:55 +0000 UTCThing about Gumby and the people of his world, they're made of clay as claymation figures and they're fully AWARE that they're made of clay and apparently aware that they themselves are fictional because in their world fiction and reality are the same I watched all of Gumby (I think) as a kid (along with Davey and Goliath) because there wasn't enough television -- but you have made me think more about Gumby than ever I did

2021-05-23 19:27:35 +0000 UTCIn Omaha, in the early sixties, seeing Gumby was a rare treat; But during the Sunday morning cartoon vacuum before Church (Misssouri Synod Lutheran, thank you) Davey and Goliath, Clokey's Christian offering was all there was between me and professional bowling. We're talking clam flowage-level programming here!

2021-05-22 21:17:43 +0000 UTCClokey's director's vision was a tad skewed, that's for sure!

2021-05-22 21:14:50 +0000 UTCAs a kid on Saturday mornings (Same age as you, Kevin) Gumby was on early, like 7am, before the "Real cartoons" started. It was either that, or Agriculture USA. Needless to say, I watched a lot of Gumby, DAMMIT!

2021-05-22 18:22:07 +0000 UTCGumby “cartoons” (actually stop-motion animation) are the strangest things I saw as kid’s programming growing up. Or maybe Popeye cartoons
