Smith School of driving (ca. 1960)
The "world famous" Smith School of driving is still active, so I doubt you could get permission, but the old-school driver's ed. films (somewhere from mid-'50s to late '60s I'd guess) are pretty damned funny, and ripe pickin's fer riffin'. Smith is a cantankerous pedant who likes to refer to trucks as "billboards" and admonishes drivers to "give the signal" (presumably their middle finger) at parked motorists as they pass. Nothing tops the combination of educational film cheese, with middle america values cheese, with ****** mid-century car cheese, with an over-determined and "five point system" taken all too seriously cheese,…

Once Upon a Time (1934)
This obscure 1934 short, produced for MetLife, was made to remind its audiences about why people should be careful and courteous when driving through a rather absurd premise involving two goblins that look like dark-colored snowmen ("Discourtesy" and "Carelessness") wreaking havoc and getting fairy tale characters into wrecks. Why? I don't know.
You can find the film, as well as specific information, in this link below: https://www.filmpreservation.org/preserved-films/screening-room/once-upon-a-time-1934

Play Safe
Before "Shake Hands with Danger" (1980) and even before "Last Clear Chance" (1959), there was "PLAY SAFE" (1936), from the same studio that brought you Betty Boop and Popeye.
"PLAY SAFE" is the charming public-domain animated tale of a boy and his dog . . . as they navigate a hellscape of anthropomorphic demon trains who just want to warn the young fellow that it's dangerous to fall unconscious on the train tracks! All of this cautionary whimsy is set to a musical score that sounds like Minnie the Moocher's drunk uncle, Vinny.

My Santa (2005- ) AKA Itsudatte my Santa
Santa is a magical girl in this two-episode anime/OVA for Christmas later this year? Yep. There's an English dub. And, the protagonist is also named Santa. Six months' worth of story arcs in two short episodes.

Barbie and the Rockers: Out of This World/Barbie and the Sensations
Okay. This is a more of a blatant push to get people to watch Alison Pregler's YouTube channel. But since it's a two part set of shorts where Barbie travels to outerspace to a flower shaped space station and then accidentally travels back to the 1950s? I think Mary Jo Pehl and Bridget Nelson would work wonders on a perfect rifftrax commentary track.

Mannix
The MST3K crew often made references to "Mannix," one of my all-time favorite shows. Why not do a riff on an episode of that classic series? Season 1 had Mannix working for a hi-tek detective agency. Mannix's specialty was insubordination. Season 2 onward he was on his own, with a regular stable of frenemy lieutenants, and oddly colored sportjackets.

Lets Make a Sandwhich (1950)
This is a four minute short that can work as an interstitial. It's a short about making an open-faced tuna sandwich. And it proudly makes use of a gas oven and of triumphant music.
