    The XXX set of episodes with Black Scorpion that
    just came out has added a new feature of closed captions,
    I've not seen that before on anything MST. It should have
    been Subtitles instead of CC but anyway, it's better than
    nothing, for some, but not me as I use the CC/subtitles
    option to transribe the poor diction of a lot of TV shows
    and movies, but the MST3K stuff has always had good
    enunciation, and the CC is partial and does not bother with
    the stuff that's actually or not possible to hear like with
    the phrases of bad speech on the original movie or when
    the guys are yaking over the actors speech.

    The set includes The Projected Man, which has "adult humor"
    in it, so perhaps is why it was selected for the "XXX" set,
    to suggest it's not family friendly.

    Not sure if my previous post made it...
