Wonder Showzen!!!

[psychofiend]

I was flipping through the channels the other night and i found, honestly the most fucked up thing ever on television. Weirdert than any show you can think of. It was called Wonder Showzen, it has no real plot and it is amazingly offensive (or so it seems i am not the type of person who gets offended by that stuff). It's on MTV2 late at night, and i think all should see the irreverence to Sesame Street it has.

I'll keep my eye out. What's it all aboot?

Yes, I've seen the disfigured beauty of Wondershowzen. I think the creators of the show were shooting for a production that would only last one season. The show is so offbeat, offensive, amoral, that it could only ever be on one season. The show has a bunch of puppets and occaisonally little kids and cartoons. Psycho is right, the show is a direct ripoff of Sesame Street, except instead of teaching letters and numbers they teach about racism and how imagination is the strongest drug of them all.

Even if you end up hating this show, its still worth it to see one episode and witness one of the most chaotic half hours on television.

I just can't believe anyone lets them put their kids on that show -- is it legal to have kids say lines like that?

I was flipping through channels with the three-year-old the other day. As soon as I saw Sesame Street-like characters on MTV, I knew it would be bad. So, I quickly changed the channel...much to Isaac's dismay.
