Actually, I prefer Comedy Central's version of TV Funhouse with Robert Smigel. The cartoon segments had better ideas to them and the humor was drier. Plus, getting used to the formula didn't make the show less funny, as it does with WS.

Though Wonder Showzen is definitely creepier, and that should count for something.

MTV2 edited too much out Watch trhe Hot Dog part compared to what MTV2 aired is totally different.

I do love the little kids doing the interviews. They had one where a lil boy goes to a horse racing track & tells this guy he can do an impression of him & then the kid goes "gamble gamble gamble die".

I really like this show, but no M2 = just the clips I can find online on the M2 site...

I hear that Season 2 is starting in early 2006. If you're not on this bandwagon... go to mtv2.com and watch some of the clips.

love this show. the kid interviews are the best - that red headed bastard is funny as hell. i also like when the guy with the ridiculous hand puppet goes out and interviews people - the one where he asks them about personal space while pretty much mugging them is great.

some of it is so bizarre (Chewties) - stuff SNL used to do to great effect but dont anymore.

I like the one where he's asking joggers what they're running away from... then asks them to accpet Jesus as savior. Awesome. Or, the other one called 'What riles you up, Harlem?'

Are you using azureus as your client? If not, do so now as it is pretty problem free and can download a lot of torrent files that others can't. Also, many trackers have banned bitcomet, so don't bother with that one.

"D.O.G.O.G.B.Y.N."

"Don't look now but i think i'm pregnant again... only this time it's a cesarian conception"

The Beat Kids where the kid goes as Hitler was pretty wrong too.

I like it much better than Robot Chicken... it's paced and feels like a kid's show. Really creepy.
