Hogan's Heroes. Let's have a show about a Nazi camp, it'll be funny!

No Mr Ed?

They included Circus of the Stars and not Battle of the Network Stars -- which, at the time, was known as Battle of the Network Ts & As? Example with Lynda Carter here (new window)

And here I was believing it was the US networks sunday morning interview republicans talk shows. Why? Because they are stupider than this subby's picks.

Whoa, whoa, WHOA...WMAC Masters was GREAT!

FirstNationalBastard: Whar My Mother The Car whar?

/seriously... that's a farked up idea for a show.

meh...it's just an early, femmed-up version of Knight Rider...minus the crime fighting.

No love for "I Dream of Jeannie"?

Seriously?

TheOther: FirstNationalBastard: Whar My Mother The Car whar?

/seriously... that's a farked up idea for a show.

Written by Ian Fleming!

My favorite ridiculous premise for a show:
Heil Honey, I'm Home! (new window)

Yes, it was a real thing that didn't last beyond the first episode. I would love to have been at the pitch meeting where this was somehow approved in the first place.

Bathia_Mapes: FirstNationalBastard: Whar My Mother The Car whar?

No argument there. I'm old enough to remember that travesty.

There are a few episodes on

I watched that and thought for a second I fell into an alternate timeline...

They zoom in on thumbprints in Mac Image Viewer.

Even better in the clip, the guy pretends to be inserting the piece of paper with the thumbprint into the left side of his MacBook.

But seriously, no "Woops!" (new window)?

Anyone else watch the video for "Secretos"?

FTFA: "After each man or extremely oppressed woman finishes his or its poem, a panel of four judges scream, probably because there's no nice way to say anything in Arabic. In fact, their word for beautiful can't be pronounced without a second butthole."

Gold, Jerry....Gold...

"It's like The Love Boat, but it's on a train! A farkin' train!"





Was pulled off the air halfway through its first episode.

How about the FOX show "The Chamber"

Basically taking a contestant and throwing them into a hot or cold torture chamber and asking them questions. It would either get extremely hot 170F or extrememly cold -20F. 55 MPH wind gust. Muscle contractors. Making the chair spin around. Spraying water on their face. Shaking the chair violently.

MBK: Hey, my roommates and I had wagers on Man vs Beast.

The Sumo vs orangutan tug of war contest was fixed! The sumo took a dive! I Swear to god, the sumo took a dive!

I thought the orangutan dominated that sumo wrestler!

I liked the chimp vs Navy Seals one... except the chimp had no concept of competition.

I've seen mockups of that second one before, but they never actually MADE it, did they?

Wait, your handle's PizzaJedi, and you've never seen the Star Wars Holiday Special!?

/the Rifftrax of it is hilarious

JLEM: Wait, your handle's PizzaJedi, and you've never seen the Star Wars Holiday Special!?

Right, because I respect myself enough to not subject myself to it.

Or you are too young to have seen it when it aired. My generation was all excited until Chewie's nephew started talking and the elder wookie started jerking it to a clown hologram. You're missing out on some serious horrors.

JLEM: You're missing out on some serious horrors.

Thanks, but there were enough in the Prequels to last me quite some time. Maybe when I get enough alcohol in my system.

PizzaJedi81: Maybe when I get enough alcohol in my system.

Oh, absolutely.

Woops! was pretty ridiculous.

List fails without Pink Lady & Jeff

JosephFinn: But seriously, no "Woops!" (new window)?

Looks like my first picks are already taken. Luckily I still have "Lancelot Link, Secret Chimp (new window)" waiting in reserve.

Came for first two references and Supertrain, will counter with "Mr. T and Tina".

I remember watching Supertrain as a kid. Every week you could see how the very poorly assembled sets were deteriorating, the press-on vinyl-covered flats were all bubbling-up and coming unstuck.

Supertrain had a continuing cameo of sorts in an early short-lived show starring then-unknown Jim Carrey, called "The Duck Facory".

Duck factory was about a young animator with a powerful imagination, working in a small independent cartoon company. A running gag was that the chief script writer for the company's sorts was a self-aggrandizing a-hole who wore a shiny satin ballplayer jacket with a giant Supertrain crew logo on the back. His character's big claim to fame was that he'd been a staff writer on that show, before coming to the animation studio. I always found it very amusing that someone would be so desperate for credit and validation that he'd be that proud of working on that bad of a show.

And if anybody has a show in development, give me a call, I work for just under Guild scale.

POW camp, actually, but yeah, Nazis in Sixties sitcoms count as weird.

Pretty sure this is a repeat from within the last two weeks....but damned if I can't find it using Fark Search.

/Pretty sure I'm not crazy

But, to be fair, that one worked.

...I don't think it was ever actually serious....just some DeviantArt-er's re-imagining of what DC would do if it were Marvel.

Add to the list Mr. Ed. Seriously, no one thinks it's weird that this dude was always sneaking off to a stable to talk to a horse?

I wasn't old enough to watch My Mother the Car, but I saw it on one of those VH1 countdown shows and it sounds completely bizarre. In the same vein add Knight Rider.

Basically any show that has inanimate objects or animals talking is weird.

/going to my happy place now.

My Dad was so impressed with Peter Scolari catching a handball behind his back that he predicted HE would be the big star.
