The 1980's broadcast KTMA MST3K episodes get potty-mouthed that
the more familiar later cable episodes don't. Crude d--- jokes
in KTMA episode 5 Gamera, if I recall correctly, and other episodes
have things like the word s--- muted by the TV broadcast but then
said in the clear by the bots in Hangar 18. There's also the mods
and bots repeating a riff on the credit name "Butkus" and said in
a manner that evokes "b--- kiss" or "f--- this" in SuperDome.
There's probably other dirty language that I haven't seen yet.

I'm pretty sure it was a KTMA episode where one of the bots said
something about Deep Woods Off, and Joel replied "When you're deep in
the woods, you can't beat off". Stupid, but it made me laugh.

That sounds familiar, was that in the KTMA of Year Of The Apes?

No idea. It's been decades since I've watched any of the KTMA
episodes.
Did anyone ever unearth the first few, or are they still the stuff of legends?

No idea. It's been decades since I've watched any of the KTMA
episodes.
And later in the KTMA Superdome episode there's a non-four letter gag when the narrator says something like "the fans have been pitching tents and camping out in excitement and anticipation of seeing the superbowl" and
Joel says "they're excited if they're pitching tents".

I wonder if the KTMA episodes all exist, and in better quality, but have
been suppressed by an agreement with Comedy Central to forbid their rebroadcast or distribution. Comedy Central is more restrictive to what
they can show than broadcast TV. They once reconstructed Cheech And Chong's Next Movie to remove all drug references in favor of "diamonds", while broadcast TV played the original.
And of course the KTMA espisodes have some good gags, the sex jokes and
four letter humor not being very good.

KTMA Episode 1: Invaders from the Deep
KTMA Episode 2: Revenge of the Mysterons from Mars
They came in the Bonus set of MST3Ks if you pitched in on the
Kickstarter for Season 11.

Wow, really? So they do exist and fans have seen them? Damn, now I'm
really wishing I had contributed to the Kickstarter campaign and
didn't just wait until you could buy the boxed set of Season 11.
Or are you just making that up? I could swear that I read the fine
print of that Kickstarter campaign pretty thoroughly and I don't
remember seeing early KTMAs included in the rewards.
None of the other KTMAs were included in the bonus sets. I don't
recall that during the Kickstarter that they listed the episodes
available as a reward bonus, so I can't speak to that.
KTMA Episode 1: Invaders from the Deep
KTMA Episode 2: Revenge of the Mysterons from Mars
There were basically two sets of bonus episodes--there were about 40%
of the MST3K in 540p resolution (I would prefer 720, but really, they
are a damned sight better than the 320ps I had that were burned off of >videotape in the MST3K Preservation Society downloads). Then, they
added another dozen or so episodes with the KTMAs--let me check the >colleciton real quick here...

OK, then the question becomes, for those who didn't participate in the kickstarter, is there any (preferrably legal) way to watch those two episodes? I just did some googling, and all I could turn up was the
site https://mst3k.vhx.tv that has the two episodes, but they want,
get this, $999,999 to watch each episode. Since I don't have a spare
couple million dollars lying around, that ain't happening.

Honestly, I'm kind of surprised that the 540p episodes haven't been
uploaded here or to the other two MST3K groups in the meantime.
