2017 continues to be the year of Mystery Science Theater 3000. Following the Netflix premiere of its 11th season this spring, series creator Joel Hodgson announced plans to tour with the ‘bots and fellow carbon-based cast members Felicia Day, Jonah Ray, Hampton Yount, and Rebecca Hanson. Now we’ve learned that the Shout! Factory’s bringing the series to Comic-Con later this month, where MSTies will be able to lob their questions (in an orderly fashion) at the cast at a panel on Saturday, July 22 3 p.m. PT at the Horton Grand Theatre.


TV Club editor Erik Adams has hitched a ride with the Satellite of Love, and will moderate the panel, which will touch on the current season and impending tour. So get your questions (and lapel pins) ready for July 22.
