Let's not deny it, MST3K is one of the greatest things to hit our televisions and the Santa Claus Conquers the Martians episode is one of the Bots' best moments.
Joel, Crow and Tom Servo always make movies easier to sit through and Santa Claus Conquers the Martians, a convolted mess of a turkey if there ever was one, is one of the ones that would make you want to hang yourself otherwise but makes up for it with Joel and the Bots hilarious commentary. They are on a roll in this episode. "Dial M for Mutant!"
The host segments are also perfect, the invention exchange which pays homage to Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, the iconic "A Patrick Swayze Christmas" song, the Christmas additions onto the robots, it's clear the guys at Best Brains love Christmas and were more than happy to do a Christmas episode. So, for any MST3K fan... or any newbie: Santa Claus Conquers the Martians is a must.
