In March 2021, Darcy the Mail Girl created The Lost Drive-In of Joe Bob Briggs on Patreon. Her goal was to preserve the creative content of the Texas film critic and horror host.

• The Movie Channel: Joe Bob’s Drive-In Theater (1986-1996)
• The Movie Channel: VCR Overnight (1988-1991)
• The Sleaziest Movies in the History of the World (1990-1993)
• TNT: MonsterVision with Joe Bob Briggs (1996-2000)
• TNT: Joe Bob’s Last Call (1997-1999)
• TNT: Joe Bob’s Summer School (1999)
• TNT: Joe Bob’s Hollywood Saturday Night (1999)
• Joe Bob’s Private Screening Room (2003-2004)
• Shudder: The Last Drive-In with Joe Bob Briggs (2018-current)

Unfortunately, some of the Monstervision timecodes provided by The Lost Drive-In are incorrect when compared to off-the-air television recordings. Additionally, a few of the video uploads include alternate versions and audio mixes of the segments. These include rough cut, unmixed, or broadcast copy.

As a result, I am professionally editing the newly released and restored content to recreate the original broadcast episodes. Also, I am using the best quality film transfers that I can locate including using Open Matte versions.
