WACKIEST, GOOFIEST TV shows of all time - Page 3 - Blu-ray Forum

Blu-ray Fanatic · 11-06-2008, 06:33 PM

Wackiest, Goofiest tv shows of all time? I'd say 99% of them were all like that. But sometimes it gets too ridiculous.

Ever since these tv shows showed up on national tv, I haven't watched that much television since: 1.American Idol 2. Americas Got Talent 3. Dancing/Skating With The Stars 4. America's Next Top Model 5. Shop Til You Drop 6. The Price is Right 7. Family Feud 8. To be Continued..............

Critics and adult viewers generally panned the show, often savagely. In 2002, TV Guide proclaimed it to be the second-worst of all time, just behind The Jerry Springer Show.[1]

I can go on.

That show was great!
What about Sledge Hammer and Parker Lewis Can't Lose. Great, wacky shows.

EDIT: Sledge Hammer used a rocket launcher to get a sniper off of building. Classic.

Of course! PeeWees' Playhouse! That was a blast.
When you hear the magic word, everybody SCREAM REAL LOUD!!!!!!!

Fraggle Rock was great. My favorite character was "Madam Trash Heap", to whom the fraggles went seeking wisdom. I remember the rats always introduced her to anyone garnted an audience: "Madam Trash heap knows all, Madam Trash heap sees all..." at which point she interupts them with: "Face it boys, Madam Trash Heap IS ALL!"

My vote probably goes to the Robonic (yes, Robonic) Stooges. It was a Saturday morning cartoon where the Three Stooges were resurrected as robots and fought crime.

... took the whole building down too! He was the grown-up equivalent of Dennis the Menace with his sling-shot.

Remember the episode with the serial killer taking out Elvis impersonators? There was a chalk line on the pavement complete with flared shirt cuffs, pant legs, and pompadour hair-do!

Great stuff!

As for a more modern wacky show, Arrested Development takes the cake. That show was all over the place, and very, very funny!
