Title: "Weird TV"
Post by: eeeee5 on March 06, 2004, 12:01:46 PM
.  .  .  .  I ran into the last 10 min. or so, last night at 11:50.  Has anyone ever seen this show?  I looked up IMDB, which lists Weird TV as created in 1994 and cancelled in 1994.  The show I saw listed it's copyright in 2003, so this may be a different show.  For some reason I wrote down WTLL, I mean it could just be some access or regional programming, though it's rare that I find any, and I have never seen any on the station I saw it on.
.  .  .  .  It had a sci-fi segment called "Space Feed" or something like that (the craft had this on the side and someone inside the ship was eating this brand of cereal).  A head was sitting atop one of those flat and horizontal electrical map-type things that you see in movies about/with submarines [boy, I sure know my military machinery (the "Plan 9" banner is playing while I'm typing, so me and Angora have something in common), I guess I never get these flaws like Andrew or the "Mars Attacks" post], with skin flayed out in directions, kind of like a squid with a human head.  The person playing the character was yelling about something to the others.  I'm sorry I didn't catch any more.
.  .  .  .  I'm pretty sure it is called "Weird TV," as it went to commercial displaying this.  It had a rectangular circle that displayed images before breaking back into the show, and it looked like the fan's website to the original show [as you can see by the stuff posted next to my name, I'm on dialup, so I didn't understand the website], so maybe it is.
.  .  .  .  I was a little taken back by the Hey-look-at-us-we're-friggin-weird-and-then-some nature of the show (I mean celebrating itself as being cool), so my details are lacking, and maybe the show does in fact, suck.  
.  .  .  .  I know it's a movie site and it appears that Andrew may have abandoned the TV shows reviews, because of lack of time, but I thought it may be interesting to someone here, or perhaps someone heard about the show, or has seen it.

from a promo for ATHF (Dave Willis as Karl, I think):
"[Hey, you got some nice guns there, you must work out]... you do what you do, I do what I do, OK.  But you're a sucker.  You're getting fed this lie about how, like, you're gonna live forever, or whatever, but you're gonna die.  Someone will killl you with a knife.  Make sure you're abs are, uhh, frickin' ripped.  You got some good guns.  You wanna look good for when you get stabbed with a knife.  Sorry, that's how it works."
