SNL TV Funhouse is Gad-awful by jimmy_009	Dec 17th, 2008 09:42:34 PM
Thank the lord they stopped doing those D.O.A. turds.

Shit, I may just have to quit my job and leave my wife and go to this!!!
Put your weed in there was SNL. by Kurutteru Yatsu	Dec 17th, 2008 09:49:22 PM
I think I remember a total of three things from The State-- dip my balls, a recurring bit with two of the guys doing some martini cocktail deal on the surface of the moon, and this one sketch where they were in all in high school and kept breaking the fourth wall to tell you what they were really feeling.
TIM AND ERIC by thegreatwhatzit	Dec 17th, 2008 11:39:17 PM
(cue for "barfing" sound effect) Check please! Assholes!
TV Funhouse brought usually the only laughs... by Lenny Nero	Dec 18th, 2008 12:19:34 AM
...in any given SNL episode for perhaps 10 years now. And The State plus Tim & Eric? It's good I live in the East Bay, because I'm there.

is named after his idol, Jimmy Fallon. Anything that took time away from his fantasy future husband made him cry/cut himself/post bs on the internet.
Mice again... by Sulla	Dec 18th, 2008 03:00:45 AM
TV Funhouse was hilarious, this would be a gem to see live.
Dear God ... please kill Tim by chrth	Dec 18th, 2008 08:11:41 AM

Boys and girls!.... by Alifemde	Dec 18th, 2008 08:28:54 AM
Action! Action!!! God bless The State... And God DAMN MTV! Why not get that completed The State DVD set out on the market before DVD becomes obsolete, fartknockers!

I base my "bs" opinion on the fact that not only did I NEVER laugh during those terrible, terrible animations, NEITHER DID THE AUDIENCE. Was there anything more of a downer than when the audience gave a pity clap at the end, after not laughing ONCE during the entire, usually overlong bits?

You are aware of the hilarious short lived Comedy Central series TV Funhouse...right? The SNL segments could vary week to week, but the creation of The Ambiguous Gay Duo is classic.
Tim and Eric, The State, Fernwood, etc. by skimn	Dec 18th, 2008 10:25:25 AM
I dearly love them all, but will the building be able to withstand all that ironic weight??
Yeah where is the damn State DVD? by Jor-El23	Dec 18th, 2008 10:38:05 AM
That thing has been rumored for years, longer than the show was on the air or popular. Get it done!
I wanna dip my BALLS in it!!!!!!!!! by jimmy rabbitte	Dec 18th, 2008 10:43:48 AM
Wow, The State... I would not have expected them to reassemble.
Oh... don't forget to bring the... by jimmy rabbitte	Dec 18th, 2008 10:45:09 AM
... 240 dollars, worth o' puddin' Awww yeah.
The Ambiguoulsy Funny Show by ArcadianDS	Dec 18th, 2008 12:31:29 PM
30 minutes of audio tape of Ross Perot on Meet the Press played over animations of him whipping Obama ala "Roots" and wearing a pink tutu. I have better ways to waste my life. Talkbacks, for example.
Yes I'm aware of it... by jimmy_009	Dec 18th, 2008 01:23:23 PM
...that's why I specifically said the SNL Funhouse. The AGD was the only good bit, and it ensured that they'd be running shitty ones for years to come, long after it was clear none of them were funny. Truly the most painful thing during a very painful time on SNL.

gotcha...I do recall a Michael Jackson bit that was pretty damn good.
People not laughing at SNL's TV Funhouse? by Lenny Nero	Dec 18th, 2008 03:55:10 PM
These were the people who laughed at the Ferrell/Oteri cheerleader sketch week-after-week, so I consider them not laughing at TV Funhouse to be the highest of compliments.

SNL years with TV Funhouse by wash	Dec 18th, 2008 06:39:10 PM
Lenny knows what's up. My wife and I would watch the first sketch, and then check the intro if there was going to be a new TV Funhouse. If not, shit got turned off real quick. Unless there was a good host or musical act, it really wasn't worth watching otherwise.
The only thing better would be by darquelyte	Dec 18th, 2008 07:12:32 PM
If they could have gotten the Original Cast of Mad TV to appear since it's now been canceled.
