   Thanks for posting this - I had no idea my cable provider even carried   
   RetroTV, but I was able to set up the Tivo to record "The Corpse   
   Vanishes" this weekend (unfortunately I didn't see this until after   
   Mad Monster had already aired).  Since I never had access to Comedy   
   Central until after they had dropped MST3K, I've only seen most of   
   these early episodes as nth-generation VHS copies, so it's great to   
   see a clean broadcast.   
      
   I tried to set up a Tivo season pass to record it whenever it comes   
   on, but the guide just listed this episode as "Movie".  They've   
   updated next week's showing to "Mystery Science Theater", so I   
   set up a season pass on that one.   
      
      
   >301- Cave Swellers   
      
   Is this a movie about people who think caves are swell, or an   
   evil organization who has found a way to swell up people's caves?   
      
      
   >303- Pod People   
   >320- The Unearthly   
   >323- The Castle of Fu Manchu   
   >402- The Giant Gila Monster   
   >409- The Indestructible Man   
   >412- Hercules And The Captive Women   
   >419- The Rebel Set   
   >424- Manos: The Hands of Fate   
   >504- Secret Agent Super Dragon   
   >506- Eegah!   
   >507- I Accuse My Parents   
   >511- Gunslinger   
   >517- Beginning of the End   
   >518- The Atomic Brain   
   >610- The Violent Years   
   >616- Racket Girls?   
   >619- Red Zone Cuba   
   >701- Night Of The Blood Beast   
   >812- The Incredibly Strange CreaturesŠ   
   >908- The Touch of Satan   
   >1002- Girl in Gold Boots   
   >1009- Hamlet   
      
      
   Now we just need to find a way to convince RetroTV to finance   
   some new episodes.
