You have to call your friends once in a while and see how they're doing, especially if they're undergoing big changes and their city has been rocked with upheaval. Twin Cities-based actor and writer Bill Corbett will always be associated with Crow T. Robot, the wisecracking robotic commentator on bad films on Mystery Science Theater 3000. It's a part he played for many years and a part he'll be playing all over again as MST3K is in the process of a reuniting or sort of merger with Rifftrax, the comedy troupe he formed with Mike Nelson and Kevin Murphy. He and fellow Minnesotan/host John Moe share thoughts on the ICE surge and the heartening coming together of community that grew out of it. ALSO!

As The Simpsons hits its 800th episode, Jim Hill takes a moment to appreciate how this once-scrappy Fox upstart became an animation institution that may never actually end. From the long-lost series finale concept where Homer and Krusty were secretly the same person to the show's upcoming theatrical sequel and Disney's long-term park plans, this week's Fine Tooning looks at how Springfield keeps evolving. Plus, box office updates, Avatar sequel math, Matt Braly's next move after Sony, and a wild Steven Spielberg phone call that changed animation history. NEWS • The Simpsons celebrates its 800th episode with “Irrational Treasure,” the 14th episode of Season 37, as the series eyes renewal through Season 40 and a second theatrical film set for September 3, 2027. • Disney+ viewers can compare Season 1's “Santa's Little Helper” to the new milestone episode to see just how dramatically the show's animation quality has evolved since 1989. • Sony Pictures Animation's Goat opens strong over Presidents Day weekend, reportedly close behind Warner Bros.' Wuthering Heights, with final box office numbers still shifting. • Zootopia 2 crosses $1.83 billion worldwide, becoming the ninth highest-grossing film of all time, though its upcoming March 3 home video release may slow its push toward $2 billion. • Avatar: Fire & Ash reaches $1.46 billion globally, profitable but well below the franchise's prior installments, raising questions about costs and expectations for Avatar 4 and 5. • Matt Braly and Rebecca Sugar's previously in-development Sony feature is shelved, but Braly launches a Kickstarter on March 13 for his indie gothic horror pilot Clara and the Below. • The RiffTrax team raises nearly $1.9 million on Kickstarter for The RiffTrax Experiments, offering a hopeful blueprint for creator-driven animation crowdfunding. FEATURE • The behind-the-scenes story of how Judy Freudberg and Tony Geiss were hired by Steven Spielberg to write The Land Before Time, following his surprise discovery of Sesame Street Presents: Follow That Bird. • Spielberg's now-legendary phone call to Freudberg, initially mistaken for a prank, ultimately led to a creative partnership that bridged Sesame Street and major animated feature filmmaking.

Czabe welcomes PAUL CHARCHIAN to the show and they get deep into the nerd weeds on the state of video games. Charch also introduces Czabe to "RiffTrax" and his world is not quite the same anymore. "There's so much room for activities!" The Vikings Max Brosmer should have been told to surrender his helmet and jersey on the spot. Plus they aren't any good at trading lately either. The Patriots have hit the quick rebuild. Jaxson Dart has a shiny necklace (though it's fake I found out!) and a real idiot's attitude toward getting killed on the NFL football field. Good luck, pretty boy. The league will chew you up and spit you out in no time playing like that.
