WONDER SHOWZEN

[Jeff The Ninja]

Supposedly, this is the Pilot for Wonder Showzen.

So how close is this to The Actual Show. I want to know as it isnt being shown in canada.

[Jixby Phillips]

Very close, the actual first episode used pretty much all the Letter N footage, the hot dog skit (they changed a few lines). The Q&A is different on the first episode, they reshot a bunch of it with different kids giving some of the same answers. Also the Unicorn cartoon they used in a later episode. They also remodeled the Chauncey puppet a little (the yellow guy you see at the end - this is actually a short version of the pilot that doesnt include the opening theme and some other sketches. The Funny Not Funny skit is pretty much the same, except they scattered a few of the little bits of footage into more than one "FUNNY NOT FUNNY" segments (along with new stuff).

The actual show is also a little faster paced.

a lot of that is actually on the first episode, yeah

the beat kids parts on the actual show are way, way better though

All I've seen from Wonder Showzen was Clarence "counting" on the streets. I was in tears.

[Royal Tenenbaum]

The entire Horse Apples episode was insane. My friends made me turn it off half way through, even though I would have kept going. I may have to watch the rest of it at some point.

[AChimp]

I wanted to keep watching it, because it is pure genius. Everyone else is stupid.

[clever t-shirt phrase]

The first episode is great. As a whole, Wonder Showzen has it's moments. Anything with the kids/puppets is usually funny. A lot of the parodies are worthwhile... but it seems to have started to drop in quality.

David Cross is unfunny as fuck on that show and from what I can see they seem to be giving him and the pretend redneck crew more time, which is not a good thing.

"you know what I hate? ******s... just kidding!"

Oh, tee hee, mr. "edgy" white man.

It's starting to become ironic in ways it isn't intending to be, although whether the writers or actors are aware of this and think they're being clever/cute by doing so isn't really clear.

(Also, related but unrelated: does anyone remember "the DAMN SHOW", with Yucko the clown, the homeless people, etc.?)

[Krythor]

Insightful! You make a vague and unconvincing argument, I'll tell you what.

[EverythingWillSuck]

I loved how the last ten minutes of Horse Apples just became a surreal mess.

[executioneer]

there are a few stinkers mixed in with the good stuff though

chinese girl baby atlantis

yuck yuck goose

[executioneer]

don't really care for the "he-bro" cartoon that much either

[EverythingWillSuck]

The cartoons are my least favorite part of the show. There are some funny ones but it's mostly "LAWL HAHAHAH CARTOONS SHOULDN'T BE DOING THIS!11" crap.

[executioneer]

exactly

[Schimid]

My favorite cartoon is DOGOBGYN, and it's only because of Lucy.

"Poker?"
"Yeah, and I punched her in the face too."

I think I could handle a separate Horse Apples series
