Normally, reviews of video games tend to be either informative, or pointless. When it comes to the Internet, it's always the latter:

In a very bad way.

Sorry for wasting five minutes of your life, then.

That was funny in parts but as a whole the creator(s) could have done better in both jokes and animation.
Hell, it's beyond anything I can create in Flash, and I'll give them props for that.
But the pacing... uh...
Needs less Don Knotts-meets-bad-standup and more outright lunacy.

It's like twenty minutes of work with Flash. And that's just for going through the stupid audio and matching up.

That's twenty seconds I'll never get back. SA usually does graphics better than that.

Actually, it kind of struck me as a modern update of a lame comedy form pioneered by Hee Haw (cornball humor; watch at your own risk).

Don't worry, I do recognize a show from The Most Important Era in American History (baby boomer, according to them). But Hee Haw isn't too bad. I might actually watch that if I were alive back then.

Wow. Well that's a shocker. I thought it ended in the late seventies.
Still, I was too buisy playing Doom and watching kid's cartoons in 93 to care much about live comedy shows.
Although, from time to time, I did watch the Muppet Show.

I enjoyed the Muppet Show. I watched a lot of nick at night when I was a kid, so a lot of my tv nostalgia is actually for times before my parents were born or when they were young.

It stopped being on network tv in the early 80s, though, sigma.

It sucked when it was the only thing on. Once it wasn't, it wasn't on TV for the most part. That didn't stop them from making it, though.

Hey, the Muppet Show rocked!

The muppet show was released in its entirety on DVD last year, the first time all the uncut episodes have been available retail.

I wonder if that was the original or the spinoff, Hee Haw Honeys. Yes, even when Hee Haw died, it left behind mutant spawn.

Hmm. Relevant to my interests.
