MST is short for Mystery Science Theatre 3000 (also MST3K) - a local cable show from Minneapolis about a guy and some robots commenting on bad films - that exploded into a national craze. To MST ("mistie") is to talk back to the TV, snarkily or to object to dated or problematic material. (For example, every time a woman gets hit in a film they boo loudly.)

I don't know a lot about current shows (and I have $20/month cable), but one good one is DEXTER on Showtime - set in Miami with a lot of POC characters. Some open-eyed look at whiteness and white privilege and how it affects POC in positions of authority.
