Mystery Science Theater 3000/Recap/S06 E21 The Beast of Yucca Flats

""This movie stops at nothing - and stays there.""

- Tom Servo

Film watched: The Beast of Yucca Flats, with shorts Money Talks! and Progress Island USA

The Mystery Science Theater 3000 presentation of Progress Island U.S.A contains the following tropes:
"Narrator: The Spaniards called it "Puerto Rico"...
 * Call Back: "That nose wheel feels mushy."
 * Take That: The whole sketch makes a Running Gag out of Mike and the bots contradicting the narrator's overly triumphalist rambling ("There's something for everyone..." "...like flights out!"), building up to the final joke:

Tom Servo: Because they couldn't think of anything else.

Narrator: We call it...

Crow: Cheaplabourville!"


 * With Lyrics: Tom Servo sings with the bouncy commercial-jingle music. "Strawberries, marshmallows, tinfoil and fudge and some dingle-balls hanging from trees..."
