* During the making of the final episode, the crew surprised Mike, Bill and Kevin with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jsy62rUB0lQ an unexpected montage]]. The result is all three guys cracking up multiple times, as opposed to the usual hushed giggling that goes on in host segments, and applauding at the end.[[note]]It also helps that, being made for the performers, it's entirely made up of past bits that become recurring office jokes at Best Brains ("STAAAAAY!"), and thus becomes a very personal tribute to friends and co-workers.[[/note]]
* In the ''Mystery Science Theater 3000 Amazing Colossal Episode Guide'', writer Paul Chaplin (who you may remember as [[Recap/MysteryScienceTheater3000S05E21SantaClaus "Pitch"]] when he appeared in Deep 13 and the SOL) wrote a brief piece praising Beverly Garland not just as a person, but also for her tendency to play strong female characters in a time when that was pretty unusual. Special mention goes to her character in ''[[Recap/MysteryScienceTheater3000S03E11ItConqueredTheWorld It Conquered the World]]''.
-->Married to an idiot, she realizes it and takes matters into her own hands. She finds the Venusian pickle and delivers a dressing down that had to leave the poor creature more than a little abashed. Unfortunately she's then eaten, but she goes down shooting, probably praying she'll get stuck in the bastard's throat and choke him. In certain respects it's a ridiculous scene. Yet she delivers her lecture with the strongest commitment you could ever hope for. In that moment she ''is'' a woman enraged at a pickle. I mean this. It shows such pride to perform like that, and to make sure your characters all have pride.
* For Thanksgiving 2013, Creator/ShoutFactory brought back the Turkey Day marathon as a livestream on their Website/YouTube channel hosted by none other than Joel, who was preparing for Thanksgiving dinner in the host segments between episodes. Just seeing him again would qualify for this trope, but when he signed off to start dinner after the final episode, Crow and Servo showed up to join him at the table. Moreover, Cambot -- whose presence had been slowly marginalized over the course of the series -- is the only character from the series to join Joel for this, and gets plenty of opportunity to do his usual "embodiment of the editor" shtick.
* Following the ''[[Recap/MysteryScienceTheater3000S04E24ManosTheHandsOfFate "Manos" the Hands of Fate]]'' episode a group of fans started a grassroots campaign to get John Reynolds - the actor who played Torgo, and who tragically committed suicide shortly after the shoot due to chronic depression - a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. The campaign ultimately failed, but the rest of the "Manos" cast appreciated it nonetheless.
* A real-life one, as the notorious Joel vs. Mike flame war had a quite sweet addendum: Mike himself had ''no idea'' it had happened until years later, thanks to the rest of the crew teaming up to protect him from knowing all the trouble his casting had stirred up.
* Rose Kennedy got wind that the show often made fun of the fact she was over 100. She stated that she found it funny she was so old, too.
* Kim Catrall once watched ''City Limits'', specifically the bit where Crow sings a love song to her. She had flowers sent to Trace Beaulieu because of it.
** This even eventually made it back into the show, as she's revealed to be Kinga's mother.
** If one pays attention to Kim's Twitter account, they'll notice that she actually watches the Turkey Day marathons on Website/YouTube when they're happening.
** In a similar situation, Creator/PatrickSwayze, during a radio interview, got to hear "Patrick Swayze Christmas" from ''Santa Claus Conquers the Martians'' for the first time and was genuinely amused.
* The Website/{{Kickstarter}} project to revive ''Series/MysteryScienceTheater3000''. At first, it looked like the project wouldn't get off the ground, but things picked up after the Thanksgiving holiday; its final two weeks had the fans rushing in to pitch in, turning it from a bland, forgettable 3-episode "season" to a full-fledged 14-episode season. It eventually became one of the most successful campaigns in the website's history, and its release on Netflix one of their most anticipated projects since the Marvel series.
** This got even better once Season 11 was released, as the contributors who gave at least $100 are listed in the closing credits over the course of the season. There are a ''lot'' of them.
* Patton Oswalt's glee at being tapped to play a role onscreen as well as writing.
-->'''Joel:''' One other question: I'm wondering if you would be interested in maybe appearing on camera too?\\
'''Oswalt:''' Holy shit YYYYEEEEEEEESSSSSSSS\\
'''Joel:''' I'm thinking we could give you silver hair, and you could be "Son of Frank" - or at least a clone. [[CatchPhrase What do you think - sir?]]\\
'''Oswalt:''' [[NerdGasm OH MY GOD]]
* [[Webcomic/HarkAVagrant Kate Beaton's]] overjoyed reaction at a show she loved so much 20 years ago actually referencing her work.
* According to new host Jonah Ray, upon meeting Jackey Neyman Jones (who played Debbie in "Manos: The Hands of Fate"), she hugged him, asked to have photo taken with him, and then said to him, "You are now considered royalty."
* In stark contrast to the massive flame war that erupted over Mike taking over as the new host, Jonah was quickly accepted as a great new lead with people loving how much of a NiceGuy he is.
** He's not going anywhere either. Joel said that as long as there's a demand for the show Jonah will probably do the customary average of one hundred episodes, and Jonah himself often says "They will pry this role from my cold, dead hands."
* [[https://www.shoutfactory.com/product/mst3k-volume-xxxix?product_id=6406 Shout! Factory's official description for Volume 39]] made it abundantly clear that it was quite possibly the last volume of the set (Shout! Factory themselves stated that the remaining 12 episodes are impossible to license, but the host segments from those episodes are included instead as a compromise). Their wording makes it very clear just how much love and value they have for this franchise, and it definitely fits with Shout! Factory's image of being JustForFUn/OneOfUs.
-->So take one plausibly last ride with our heroes on the Satellite of Love, and KeepCirculatingTheTapes!
* [=YouTube=] reviewer Faith's Take took a deep adoration to Jonah, ultimately driving herself to tears while talking about how she wished such a character had been around in her childhood. Then Jonah Ray himself caught wind of it, and told her he just wishes his real life comes anywhere close to justifying that response.
* During [[Recap/MysteryScienceTheater3000S03E03PodPeople "Pod People"]], Joel riffed on some of the new-age-style soundtrack by playing his own "new age" music, with Tom calling it "Music From Some Guys In Space", riffing on the National Public Radio series, ''Music From The Hearts Of Space''. The producers of ''Hearts of Space'' proved that they had a sense of humor, sending the MST production crew a friendly letter and a selection of new age [=CDs=].
* After announcing the show would be coming back on its own streaming service, one of the first things Joel said was assurance that the ''entire'' cast of the relaunch would be coming back. And this time the initial Kickstarter goal was reached in just ''one day'', rather than the week the last one took.
** The fans went above and beyond for this one, not only surpassing the initial goal quickly, but also ''surpassing both the original final total and the combined total from the last Kickstarter''! [[note]] And despite not taking a Number 1 position, the campaign earned the unique distinction of occupying two of the Top Five spots in both Kickstarter's Films and Videos "Most Funded" and "Most Backed". Joel isn't just saying things when he says that the fans make the show what it is. [[/note]]
** One of the updates while getting Season 13 off the ground had Joel say that he's never actually ''hated'' any of the films he riffed, and goes so far as to say the show wouldn't work unless the crew had some level of respect for the craft that goes into even bad movies.
* Speaking as people who have actually done it, Joel and the crew's respect for the Harold P. Warrens and Coleman Francises and Tjardus Greidanuses and David Giancolas who actually go out and make a film is articulated by Servo at the end of ''Robot Wars'':
