The Czech Republic 0 Report post Posted May 23, 2004 This is a great show. The first time I watched it I was like "eh it's MST3K with sports and two ugly guys" but tonight I must've been in a better mood because I found it hilarious. The best was this: Film Voice-Over Man: "Deacon Jones knows only one speed: 110 percent." One of the Sklars: "That's not a speed." I just rolled around laughing at that for a good long while. Just the way he deadpanned it was perfect. The one on the 1997 Spelling Bee was great too, because I could've been made it to nationals that year, had I not screwed up "grandiloquence" in the 10th round of state. So all the humor of that really registered with me. Anybody else have an opinion on the show? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vern Gagne 0 Report post Posted May 23, 2004 It's grown on me. Not sure if it's the Sklar brothers, or the fact the events they show are so absord you can't help but laugh. My favorite was the cliff diving competiton. The wrist wrestling, and fishing with Steve Garvey were funny as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Agent of Oblivion Report post Posted May 23, 2004 I saw the wrist wrestling. That was pretty silly. Fun idea for a show, but I doubt I watch it often at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Just Looking Report post Posted May 26, 2004 I agree- if they have the right type of show to rip on, it's great. If not, it comes across as petty and it seems like they are trying too hard. The spelling bee, Garvey, and wrist wrestling were great. I have the marathon set up for TiVo already. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Drury37 0 Report post Posted May 30, 2004 Oh I love this show. I can't wait until the marathon. I thought the Garvey one was hilarious and the 1997 National Spelling Bee had me on the floor laughing mainly at that part when that girl kept putting her hand over her mouth and they where yelling IT'S A BALK!!! HAHA!!! The bootleg play by play of the final play of the Cal Vs. Stanford game from 1982 was also hilarious HAHA!!! I can't wait until tomorrow and the marathon!!! Thanks.

Drury37 0 Report post Posted May 31, 2004 I think Randy and Jason are hilarious sometimes but other times they just aren't really that funny. Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Drury37 0 Report post Posted May 31, 2004 I watched a lot of it and yeah the Spelling Bee one is definitely the best one. Although the Garvey/Bonilla one is pretty funny too. Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
