Wonder Showzen

[ZariusTwo]

I know I made a thread about this earlier once, but barly anyone replied, which is sad, as MTV2's pre-school parody series is FAR superior to crap like Robot Chicken, and living proof that Adult Swim is'nt the end-all, be-all to see shows similar to Aqua Teen Hunger Force, Sealab, Milk Chan etc, etc...

Taking some of it's concepts from a long cancelled show called "TV Funhouse", it's basically Seseme Street...with no consideration for any forms of religion, human tolerance (seriously, Clarences' segments show how human tolerance holds up) or for national conduct or credentials, the animated segments are pricless (D.O.G O.B.G.Y.N, and "Plastic Surgeons Without Boarders") the use of children as well makes it disturbingly hilarious

"I eat beef so I can fight off my father" :lol:

"Number Two is now Number Zero...she's NOTHING now Children"

I hope there are some people here who have watched it, and do appreciate it

[The Stryker]

Now HERES a show me and you agree on man!

"Can you perform a C-section?" Man i was freaked out yet oddly in love with the show. Too bad it'll probably be cancelled soon and become a Cult Hit.

It's been getting a great of prasie from critics, so clearly it's helping the channel in some ways, we'll see if it holds up

ARRRRRRRRGHHHHHHHH, dissolving fox...

Can you beleive even the Animal Dance is tame compared to that?

"Animal Dance, Animal Dance"

[The Stryker]

My GF was soooo bugged by that Fox..She Almost threw up cuz she's one of those Animal types and anything with animals getting "It" she's done

Showzen has alot of slow-motion snake eating rat footage and it gets me everytime, Makes me laugh and squirm at the same time

[remain in light]

I've only seen it once so far, but I think it's pretty darn funny. I liked the muppet that did the personal space bit and the bratty girl talking about freedom at the Statue of Liberty.
Makes me wish that Sifl & Olly was still on. Good puppet humor is hard to find (not really a fan of Crank Yankers, although I liked TV Funhouse). I heard that Billy West is supposed to be doing a new show involving naughty puppets, so hopefully that will good.

[The Stryker]

the whole Naughty puppets things began when Crank Yankers hit and only got more speed as Avenue Q was getting rave reviews

But only once in a blue moon do we get a good Bad Puppets show and Wonder Showzen is leaps and bounds Funnier than Crank Yankers. the only problem that Showzen has is its Channel. MTV2? Come on.

[ZariusTwo]

Wonder Showzen has been officially renewed for a second season on MTV, a box set of Season One is also scheduled, the extras? Probably a much clearer version of the leaked pilot episode, and some commentarys

[Brodie]

I wonder how random the commentary will be.

[ZariusTwo]

I wonder how random the commentary will be.

Justr throw the children on the commentary, and hear then pray for Lord Kromdar

[Voltron]

I watch it every Saturday. I damn near laughed my ass off when that kid came on and said "You're never too young to have a Vietnam flashback."

[The Stryker]

the thing about the show is that it makes you laugh even though some Horrible things are happening...Its GENIUS!

[VaughnMichael]

I absolutly love this damn show! it's right up there in wierdness with the 70's muppet show, & sifl and olly.
it's nice to see some one doing a puppet show who has the balls to do a good one....
allot of cry baby muppet fans hate this show....to be honest I think Jim Henson would have thought it to be really funny because in his early days he did the same exact things in comercials like puppets killing each other, shoting each other setting each other on fire, and even doing adult things on SNL in the early years.
I'm quite glad this show is working out it's a shame that sifl and olly never got the same kind of attention.
but yea I don't much care for crank yankers either....this show is way better.

HAHAHAHAHA That was so ****ing funny. The guy just aged and decomposed.

[Peanut]

I had no patience for that patience episode. I thought it was kind of a cop out. Sure it's funny for a bit, but then it just became annoying and stupid.

Wow, ain't that deduction of the month.

That was the point of the episode

[Peanut]

Yeah, thanks fella. I got that point. What I'm saying is it was stupid. It wasn't funny. I know that's the whole idea behind that episode. I'm just saying it was a waste of time and they shouldn't get praised for coming up with crap like that. No matter if it was the "point" of the episode or not. I'm not going to go out and write a book where everything is backwards and then tell people it's clever because that's "the point" of the book. Everything else to do with the show is golden though.

Because you fell for the episode's trap, they should'nt get praised. Uh-Huh.:|

As long as you love the series, I guess minor nitpicks are avoidable:)

[Peanut]

I could understand if it was actually clever, but it just seems like they decided "Let's not write anymore and just piss everyone off." After the initial viewing the episode is pretty much un-watchable, which is sad, because the rest of the episodes stand up to some pretty heavy repeat viewing. I can't be the only one who thinks "Beat Kids" is one of the most entertaining bits on TV.

thats funny cause the patients episode is the one my friends and I watch the most and no we are not on drugs...but I wouldn't doubt if the writters of this show are lol:lol:

And of course, on Sesame street devoting a certain character to deformities. You know what I mean... the Two headed monster?

I saw a few episodes of this one, and I LOVED it, man! I Loved it. Ironically, I saw it only last year, and only because for some strange reason MA got free broadcast MTV2 on broadcast channle 24, before they threw the network into infomercial hell.


hell, I sat throught that mind destroying fat guy Andy Milakaka or whatever his name is just to watch.

I need to get the DVD... too bad I'm broke ass poor at the moment.

[VaughnMichael]

yes exactly stuff like that! but I'm mostly talking about jim's older stuff like thos really messed up commercials he did for wilkins coffee and the meat comercials and the la choy dragon comercial you can find them all on www.youtube.com and it also reminds me of his saterday night live stuff as well....jim henson was not afraid to do adult based show also...I mean buy the first seen of the muppet show or watch the muppet movie and you will see tuns of sexual jokes and the like. I hate when Jim's work was dissmissed as just for kids!

[ZariusTwo]

Great battle between the present and future Chauncie, the skydiving portion of the fight was classic

[Spitfire]

From what I have seen some of it is funny, but like those Adult Swim shows, it's far and few apart. They got rid of all the AS shows I liked, such as Brak Show, Sea Lab*Which stopped being funny after season 1 in my opinion*, and Space Ghost.

[ZariusTwo]

Wonder Showzen is'nt even part of Adult Swim, stick to the topic and stop pissing about what you've "lost"

[Spitfire]

That's funny you mention that being as how your the first person so mention Adult Swim

is FAR superior to crap like Robot Chicken, and living proof that Adult Swim is'nt the end-all, be-all to see shows similar to Aqua Teen Hunger Force, Sealab, Milk Chan etc, etc...
I was simply playing off that because I agree with you there. AS shows have declined in quality over the years.

Winobot...he's winobiotic.

CAN I HAVE A FREE NANNER?!

damn I love this show

[ZariusTwo]

http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/10/18/a-third-season-of-wonder-showzen-is-unlikely/

That being said, AS have teased at picking up Wonder Showzen in their bumpers (the "Air _______ please" segments), so maybe this will be fine. WS needs to be on that block

[ZariusTwo]

The cancelation is confirmed.

oh well atleast the show got treated better than sifl and olly man that show was so ahead of its time it would have done so great on adult swim. But of course so would this show.:cry:

It was inevitable. The show is an aquired taste to the extreme. Anyone and everyone I ever showed Wonder Showzen to has not only called it the dumbest thing they've ever seen, but called me sick for liking it. I'm surprised it even got a second season actually.

So were the producers, they admitted they tried to get it cancelled themselves, which explained the reasons "Paitence" existed, not to mention the last two episodes of the series were gimmicked

[Drtooth]

And yet that fat underdeveloped Andy Milkaka Kakahead is popular...

[Peanut]

The Andy Milonakis Show actually has some really great and clever skits. There's a ton of stupid crap, but a lot of it is pretty amusing. I'd pick it over Wonder Showzen anyday.

and that my friend is where we split the road lol:lol:

[Dr. Doom]

I definitely remember being at least slightly amused by Andy Milonakis.

[ZariusTwo]

Andy makes a corpse smile...when he's bumming it analy[/Chauncie]

[Spitfire]

Andy is nothing, he's just a fat kid. Fat kids are always funny. Because their fat and stupid, any fat kid with a high pitch voice who acts stupid is funny.

I have video tapes of myself when I was his age and fat, with a high pitched voice.

It's the same crap he does except I had no budget.

Fat Kid + Camera = Genius? Try again MTV

[Peanut]

But you actually have to watch the show to catch some of the more really clever ideas. Once again, it's an extremely aquired taste. Just like Wonder Showzen, except not as extreme.

hmm really I just see a fat 36 year old or how ever old he really is I know people who've worked with andy and he's not some fat kid. he's some fat man I mean unless he's a liar to lol.
So anyways yea all I see is him doing drug induced looking skits and having pancakes on his face...sure I laughed but i laughed at my little sister and cousin when they did the same thing.
So what are some of these brilliant skits I'm not seeing here?
I'd like a list may I could understand it...I mean cripes I understand wondershowzen and aqua teen. Course I'm also the same guy who hated Napoleon Dinomite when it seems everyone loved it.*shruggs*

[Spitfire]

It's okay I hated that movie too. And that Nacho Jack Black movie too.

[VaughnMichael]

It's okay I hated that movie too. And that Nacho Jack Black movie too.
oh really oh good I'm not alone in thinking that movie was a waste lol.
But I've yet to see the Nacho jack black movie.

[Peanut]

It's okay I hated that movie too. And that Nacho Jack Black movie too.

But you basically hate everything that doesn't involve a dude who looks like a chick, so...yeah.

That being said, I thought that Dynamite movie was retarded. Talk about over rated and over hyped.

Hmmm...I was wondering why Ralphie May had a burgeoning comedy career without actually being funny.

I mean, I can take awkward humor. I actually like Napoleon Dynamite. I'm just angry I didn't see it BEFORE it became an overhyped standard psuedo-indie film. And I did get into both American and British The Office. But Andy whuzzawuzza? That pretty much stands for what I think is wrong with American culture. I really hate the Fat=Funny thing. I feel that that's pretty much laughing at what people are afraid of becoming. The more you can laugh at a fat person being fat, the less likely your metabolism will crap out when you hit 30, and pork up after getting married. Karma, man... Karma.

If he wasn't an underdeveloped 36+ year old who had the syndrome that Dick beals and Walter Tetley had (Speedy Alkaseltzer and Sherman of Peobody and Sherman, respectively) that prevented him from reaching puberty, no one would thing he was funny. Though I do recall seeing something with him and Little John that was kinda funny. Of course, I think Little John is a riot, anyway.

Truth is, even if I hated Wonder Showzen, at least it's social commentary. Well, the 3 episodes I saw anyway, when Boston oddly got MTV2 free on channel 24... it became an all infomercial network, and now it's a crappy Spanish Language station with nothing notable on. Cept some creepy Japanese cartoon about the Bible. I'll always laugh at social commentary... then I'll start getting bittelry depressed, cuz half the jokes were true.

BTW, after the "how a frozen dinner is made" segment, I really can't eat corn anymore.

[Peanut]

He got this show from being a fat kid who acted stupid. All his dumb raps and stuff are what got him recognition, but he doesn't do the whole "I'm fat and I'll act stupid for comedy" thing on the show all that much. It's more about weird and stupid situations than him jumping around, talking and cursing like an idiot. Maybe it's just me, but any show that has Lil' John eating Fruity Pebbles from his chalice, on the street skits where he apologizes to some old lady for murdering her husband, and the term "Blueberry picking lesbian", is funny to me.

Besides, he isn't even the fatest or dumbest one on the show.

[VaughnMichael]

But you basically hate everything that doesn't involve a dude who looks like a chick, so...yeah.

That being said, I thought that Dynamite movie was retarded. Talk about over rated and over hyped.

yea it really was and like every single funny thing that happens in the movie I'd seen in the trailor...it's like damn leave something for when I see it then perhaps I would have liked it a bit.:roll:

[Drtooth]

I will say the funniest thing in that Napoleon movie wasn't even in the film. I got the DVD as a present last year, and the deleted scene about the lotto ticket was pretty damn funny, actually.
