YMMV / Mystery Science Theater 3000 S11 E12: Carnival Magic

• One-Scene Wonder: Mark Hamill as Phineas Tiberius Mindslap.
• Strawman Has a Point: Several times the crew criticizes the cast of the circus for not doing much with their unique asset of a talking chimp, but realistically they wouldn't need to. If your act has a talking freaking chimp, then realistically that fact alone is going to be far more interesting than not just any tricks or jokes you might try to have said chimp perform, but likely the entire rest of the circus as well. Nobody's going to look at a poster advertising a talking chimp telling jokes and go "Oooh, jokes!"
