To keep his sanity, Joel crafts sentient robot companions, including Tom Servo, Crow T. The show initially starred Hodgson as Joel Robinson, a janitor trapped by two mad scientists ('The Mads') on the Earth-orbiting Satellite of Love, and forced to watch a series of B movies in order to monitor his reaction to them. As of 2021, 217 episodes and a feature film have been produced as well as three live tours. A second successful crowdfunding effort in 2021 will bring at least 13 additional episodes to be shown through the Gizmoplex, an online platform that Hodgson will develop for future MST3K works starting in March 2022. In 2015, Hodgson led a crowdfunded revival of the series with 14 episodes in its eleventh season, first released on Netflix on April 14, 2017, with another six-episode season following on November 22, 2018.

A 60-episode syndication package titled The Mystery Science Theater Hour was produced in 1993 and broadcast on Comedy Central and syndicated to TV stations in 1995. Thereafter, it was picked up by The Sci-Fi Channel and aired for three more seasons until another cancellation in August 1999. It was later broadcast on The Comedy Channel/ Comedy Central for seven seasons until its cancellation in 1996.

The show premiered on KTMA-TV (now WUCW) in Minneapolis, Minnesota, on November 24, 1988. Mystery Science Theater 3000 (abbreviated as MST3K) is an American television comedy series created by Joel Hodgson.
