On November 10, 2015, Shout! announced that it had acquired the rights to "Mystery Science Theater 3000" from Best Brains Inc. and launched a "Bring Back MST3K" Kickstarter with the goal of producing up to 12 new feature-length episodes of the series, with series creator Joel Hodgson serving as executive producer. In January 2016, Concord Bicycle Music bought the Hightone from the company. The same year, Shout! Factory had released "The Crush" of 1993 under subsidiary brand Scream Factory and "Long Way North".
