If you ever decide you want to see it please for the love of Tim Curry don't watch it on TV.

The only way to experience the RHPS is at a theater, movie or stage, with a floor show. Without the floor show you will not get what makes RHPS an adored Cult Classic. Seriously, the floor show is what makes (or breaks) the experience.

If you walk into the show and you're not surrounded by people in costumes spouting weird lines, or if you don't see them in the aisles within the first 90 seconds of the show starting then you may as well get up and leave.

Edit: Fixed my typo's as pointed out by @shiny_idea@aussie.zone

RHCP = Rocky Horror Chilli Peppers?

(your points are all good, I just found the abbreviations amusing)

Quick! It's spreading! We need the Rocky Horror Containment Protocol!

Dammit! Why did I mistype that?

Obviously it should be RHPS. Sigh.

This is my plan. If I ever see a showing locally, I'ma try to make sure it's the "immersive experience" everyone promises

The same thing applies to The Room, another terrible movie turned cult classic. You need to be in a theater of people throwing spoons or it's not worth watching.
