Mike from Mystery Science Theater 3000
In the not too distant future, Mike Nelson takes over as the human test subject in the renewal of Mystery Science Theater 3000. He is a temp worker from Wisconsin employed by Gizmonics. When Joel escapes the Satellite of Love, the mad scientists knock Mike unconscious and send him up to continue the experiment. Fortunately the original robots keep him company as he’s tormented with cheesy movies. He’s more gullible and cynical than Joel. When Mike returns to Earth, Jonah becomes the successor to the experiment. Mike wears multiple colors in jumpsuits, either green, blue, or brown, but we stuck with the classic blue in this guide.

He has a pretty intolerable personality, and rightfully gets put in his place by Monster Girl. However, they make amends and form a friendship, to which Robot thinks they are flirting — thus using Rex’s DNA to emulate a human form. Creepy.
