"Near Lost" may be a little bit dramatic. Certain it was the least repeated episode. Just once, on the weekend following its first run. That was a peculiar time in MST3k history. They'd show an episode on Sunday, and repeat it six days later on Saturday. Rather than showing it twice in the same weekend, as they use to. Go figure.
In any case, "Gorgo!" has never been repeated after that one week (as you probably know). And hasn't been offered on DVD sets. Other than it being a Warner Brothers movie, and a distant kin to Godzilla, one wonders why the snub? Is it too expensive to lease, or sacred cow stuff (to some like Sandy Frank)? -Dex-
