"In the not-too-distant future, as the "Mystery Science Theater 3000" theme song once declared, three former "MST3K" riffers will be returning to television — at least for a day.

Michael J. Nelson, Kevin Murphy and Bill Corbett have made fun of industrial shorts, B-movies, and cinema blockbusters as part of Rifftrax.com, but now there's a new target in their sights — the nature shows of the National Geographic Channel.

For an April 1 special called "Total Riff Off," they'll be cracking wise over three different one-hour episodes featuring classic clips from National Geographic shows, all in the wittiest-guys-in-the-room format that their fans know well. The clips they'll be mocking feature mantis shrimp, leaf-nosed bats, koalas and more."

Hell yeah.

Joel or fuck off

Will you be ma boo?

Joel puts me to sleep

I'm sorry that you hate everything great about mst3k and just like the awful parts.

and I keep seeing the title and thing it's about Boston Strong.

Maybe it's a generational thing.
