Various Web sites report that 14 new episodes of Mystery Science Theater 3000 [wikipedia.org] (MST3K for short) have been made available on the Netflix streaming service. Older episodes can also be seen on Netflix. Each is 90 minutes long, and has intermissions. During the show, fictional characters—including puppets—give humourous running commentary while a B movie is shown.

A trailer [youtube.com] advertises the new episodes; another video advertisement [youtube.com] shows MST3K's treatment of the beginning of an episode of Netflix's Stranger Things [imdb.com].

According to the show's official site [mst3k.com], the new season is permitted to be seen in "the U.S., U.K., New Zealand, Australia, Ireland, and Canada."
