Czech's Youtube Video of the Now

[Guest Pizza Hut's Game Face]

"I'm a rogue, I'm a rogue, backstabbing rogue" has meme potential if enough people watch whatever the fuck this is.

I'm not proud I got the jumping joke.

I mean, yeah, I get that it's a mini-series, not real, but is the premise just to make fun of strange Europeans who play online RPGs? I'm so dissociated from the RPG world. I topped out at beating Sephiroth. So much has changed.

 

new video of the now:

wherein "then he sharpens his sword after he's done" isn't some strange slang.

[muzz]

"And Paul Winfield as The Mirror."

 

You've got to be happy with that.

[Twisted Intestine]

I'm not proud I got the jumping joke.

 

I don't even play RPGs, and I got the jumping joke. It actually had me laughing.

[Guest Tzar Lysergic]

That Cork guy was in Caveman. That program was the second thing I've ever seen him in.

[Sideburnious]

It's not said enough around these parts, but Czech is a genius.

[BUTT]

Somehow I knew as soon as I saw the fist shot of the video that it was The Charmings. And I'd never seen 1 second of that show before.

[Smartly Pretty]

I'm going to temporarily hijack this thread.

 

 

This is rad.

Incongruous covers just don't do it for me anymore.

This is what happens when you keep putting Rex Grossman in

Well, at least he didn't kill his wife.

Speaking of shitty tv shows, anyone want to buy my two Get a Life dvds? Rare! Out of print! I have them both up on ebay!

[Guest My Pal, the Tortoise]

Take it to the Smarketplace, bitch.

[Giuseppe Zangara]

I almost made a thread there, but, ya know...why?

 

Volume 2 is currently pulling me $23; there's still 3.5 days left in the auction! Some people will buy any old shit.

[Guest My Pal, the Tortoise]

I'm curious as to why you would say it's bad. Everyone always lauds it as a lost classic, and when there were a few episodes on youtube, I thought they were okay. Still, it didn't live up to the hype, I have to admit. Is it the sort of thing where when you watch a lot of it, you realize that it's not so good after all?

[Giuseppe Zangara]

There's some laughs, but the bizarre and twisted show of my youth—at one point, now or then, would've existed a primetime network live-action tv show wherein one episode the central character befriends a wrathful, vomit-spewing alien? or an episode where that same main character goes crazy(-ier) and stalks the fashion model he's smitten with?—viewed now, through adult eyes, reveals itself as a dreary, sluggishly paced and amateurishly produced exercise in crude surrealism. It was a pretty big letdown, when, a few years back, these came out on dvd and I realized that another beloved childhood favorite was better left as a memory.

[Giuseppe Zangara]

Now that I think about it, the sort of bullshit Seth McFarlane has been spewing these past few years has its roots in Get a Life, making that show, for all its oh-wow-how'd-this-ever-get-on-the-air trappings seem less groundbreaking than quaint. Plus, we're living in a post-American Pie society, so Hollywood's been embracing in the lowest of lowbrow humor since the turn of the century, making Get a Life even more a relic.

Oh Japan

[Guest Tzar Lysergic]

Thanks for the sample.

[Giuseppe Zangara]

Those two Get a Life dvds brought me a combined total of $76. Real talk.

[Guest Cock Ring Warehouse]

That opening sequence brought the warmest of smiles to my face. As if any of us haven't had to play against that guy.

A good deal of the furry subculture can/should be blamed on Fritz the Cat.
