The host segments involve Dr. and Mrs. Forrester agreeing to produce a movie based on Crow's screenplay ("Earth vs. Soup"), then interfering with the making of the movie. This was done as a satire of the problems involved in the making of Mystery Science Theater 3000: The Movie (1996).
In each successive host segment, Dr. Forrester is seen drinking from a larger water bottle (in the final segment, he has an entire water cooler tank strapped to his back). This was done to make fun of one of the studio representatives from Mystery Science Theater 3000: The Movie (1996), who always brought water bottles to meetings and had similar mannerisms.
Writer/star Mary Jo Pehl once said she thought this was the worst film she'd ever viewed for the series.
This episode is on the Volume 36 DVD Box Set of Mystery Science Theater 3000.
