MTV's Viva La Bam and WildBoyz

Recommended Posts

Guest El Satanico

This guy seems to have some sort of unnatural hate towards people who skate board.

 

They've been doing this long before MTV came calling. So they're wrong for taking money from MTV to do what they've been doing for years?

Well what do you know Viva La Bam is half an hour long. I could have stood a half hour jackass if it means no CKY. If they're so great that they take up half the show then how come they can't find another half and go that full hour?

 

Also, that was Preston's purpose. He was never meant to be a serious prankster. That was the reason he was the one being handled by the dominatrices.

The reason why CKY would not get half an hour is simple. TV has restrictions and CKY's stuff wouldn't be shown on TV. That is also the reason why Jackass is no longer on the air. They did all they could on TV.

Look at me, I'm arguing in circles!

He already answered that question. Do you think that MTV would air footage of someone pissing on an electric fence? No. Why put out the effort to make all new skits when you've got old footage lying around?

Then why is he saying that Jackass needed CKY's stuff to fill the hour but that CKY couldn't fill an hour because it's too hot for TV?

Because neither of the groups, alone, have enough TV airable footage to fill the time slot.

 

Jackass can't fill X amount of half hours

CKY can't fill X amount of half hours

Jackass + CKY can fill X amount of half hours.

Yeah I got that. I was trying to point out that it's not like CKY could do the whole half hour by themselves either so you shouldn't fault Jackass for that.

I dont get how some people can say Bam hates his parents......You can tell the guy loves them and Ape said it good in one episode when she said she thinks he always picks on his dads weight because he's afraid of losing him.

Sorry guess I should have said "hates" his parents. It's too further that rebel image.

It's all an act for MTV. They had a huge feature on them in the latest SPIN magazine, where they revealed that...

 

a) That's actually Bam's house, he pays the rent and all of the bills, so whatever the hell he wants to do to it, it's his business. (Which makes it ironic that he does these things to "piss off his parents")

b) When the cameras aren't on, Bam is "very sweet" and "loving".

It's a very thinly vieled "act for mtv". It's obvious his parents have a sense of humor and he just likes fucking with them. There's no "I hate my parents" vibe there.

 

If we were talking about Tom Green, then fine I could buy someone thinking he acts like he hates his parents. I can see how someone would think that, since the pranks on his parents often seemed mean spirited and his parents often seemed to be legitly pissed off.

 

Bam has never really done anything that makes it look like he hates his parents, he just likes fucking with them. Unlike Green, Bam's antics involving his parents never seem mean spirited and his parents laugh with him about all of it.
