Wonder Showzen

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"

"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

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.

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 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.

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

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."

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.

Hahaha, Lord Kromdar. "We fell asleep early that night... must have been something in the milk." A lot of it's funny but some parts do fall flat on their faces.

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.
