So this week’s thread is a tribute to Mr. Trace Beaulieu. We did a “favorite Trace moments” thread WAY WAY back, but this is about more than just his huge contribution to our favorite cowtown puppet show. If you have a story about a real-life interaction with Trace, we’d love to hear it too.
One great moment I remember was at the second convention, where, in the middle of the panel with Kim Catrall, he slipped in by a side door, snuck up to in front of where she was sitting, threw a bouquet of flowers onto the table in front of her and dashed out. Great stuff.
(Keep those discussion thread ideas coming!)
I just think he had the most expressive face when he played Dr F. I would watch him simper, cringe, gloat, explode in rage, just any little reaction, and it would break me up. I often replay the Deep 13 segments to just to check out the Mads’ facial expressions.

I’ve never seen Trace in person, but he is the only MST3K alum I follow on Twitter who also follows my posts/tweets.
