List of Mystery Science Theater 3000 home video releases
Mystery Science Theater 3000 is an American TV show which aired between 1988 and 1999, and began a new series in 2017. This page summarizes video tape and DVD releases of episodes of the show. Episodes were initially released by Rhino Entertainment, with the rights later being purchased by Shout! Factory. Releases usually consist of boxsets of 4 episodes, although early releases consisted of just single episodes.
As of November 2017, 166 of the series' 176 nationally broadcast episodes from the original series were released on home video, with the remaining unreleased episodes' host segments released separately due to licensing issues for the movies featured in them. [1] [2] [3]

DVD releases[]
Rhino[]
Beginning in March of 2000, Rhino started to release episodes of MST3K on DVD.
One MST3K volume pack (Volume 10) was discontinued two months after its initial release, due to licensing issues with Godzilla vs. Megalon. The volume pack was reissued by Rhino as Volume 10.2, with a new episode (The Giant Gila Monster) in its place.
As of 2010, all Rhino releases have been discontinued, due to the company no longer having the rights to distribute MST3K on home video.
A complete listing of releases is shown in the table below.
