Character played by Joel Hodgson in the first 4 and a half (Doesn't sound right... but they finished season 4 and were halfway through season 5 (episode 512), so I guess it's right...) seasons of MST3K. He worked at Gizmonics Institute, just another face in a red jumpsuit. Joel created the robots Tom Servo, Crow T. Robot, and Gypsy to keep him sane after he got blasted into space. Generally considered a better host than Mike Nelson.
