RiffTrax

SOME UPDATES (Read if you please)

It's the holiday season, so we'll be posting a lot of Christmas/Wintertime shorts leading up to the 25th. Be on the lookout for those!

In less fun news, we're fighting some copyright stuff which has resulted in a few of our beloved riffs being taken down on this site. We're fighting to get them back ASAP (one of them is a holiday favorite we're hoping to re-debut before Christmas). The channel isn't in danger it's just very annoying and dumb.

Lastly, you may have noticed we're posting a lot more shorts lately. Please give them a like if you see them. YouTube is really rewarding creators who post shorts and this will help us in the algorithm. If you like that type of content in general, we're also posting it on our Instagram and TikTok daily (links in our profile).

That's all for now. Merry Riffing!

@BrandonSmith-yu5rv

I’m being serious - thank you for explaining what happened and also how we can help the Rifftrax channel. I never know what sort of jiu-jitsu content creators have to go through with YouTube, and I’m always happy to take whatever actions possible to help the channel.

The Man From Harlem should have been honored to be featured on Rifftrax! Nobody's ever seen him!

Who da heck claimed Whizzo and some weird tree mimes?? I'm gonna miss that weird fever dream of a holiday special. I hope you get it back! It's traditional holiday fare in this house.

Hopefully this means we will eventually see the beloved return of the riff for Bermuda Triangle. It's one of my all-time favorites and I was heartbroken when I saw it had been blocked. 💔

I think short form content is one of the signs of the Apocalypse. But if it'll push the channel in the algorithm I can just let them play muted on another tab while I watch regular content.

@Schornforce

Copyright stuff? Oh no! Has Whizzo arisen from the great beyond to give you something else to worry about? Also, is he demanding to be referred to as 'Whizzo the White' before mumbling incoherently?

I do not think you’re the only one going through copyrights. I’ve noticed a ton of channels even more so recently going through the same. I wish you luck. 🍀 I cannot imagine what a headache 🤕 it must be. Loving the shorts I like everyone they pop up. ☺️ Thank yo

The only kind of shorts worth watching are mst3k or rifftrax.

Thank you for all the laughs over the years guys! I made it an annual treat to myself to watch the riffed version of Star Games a few years ago and I have never regretted it, there's just something about that dumb movie and your commentary that never fails to cause me to laugh myself stupid. All the best to you all and anyone else who is involved with the channel, I'll be certain to like (and comment on, afaik that is how YT counts "engagement" these days) every short that comes my way in ceaseless, sleepless Doom scrolling each night. May you all be happy, healthy and hilarious for a great many years to come, love and appreciate you, Bill
