The Mads Are Back: Volume 1 Digital Box Set

When a global pandemic shut down venues across the country, Mystery Science Theater 3000's Trace Beaulieu & Frank Conniff took their live show The Mads Are Back online, partnering with Dumb Industries to present monthly livestreams of the iconic duo riffing on cheesy movies, the worst they could find (la la la). Beginning with their classic riff of Ed Wood's Glen or Glenda on July 21, 2020, the series continued for 49 consecutive months, with Trace & Frank singlehandedly writing & performing each episode.

Own the first four seasons of Trace Beaulieu & Frank Conniff's ongoing livestream series, all 49 episodes, including both the "full livestream" and "movie only" editions of each show.

Elvis Weinstein, Felicia Day and Jonah Ray, plus comedy legends such as Svengoolie, Dave Hill, Dana Gould, Martha Kelly, Andy Kindler, Julie Klausner, John Erler, this digital box set is the most extensive collection of The Mads Are Back yet.
