The 'Man Show' does a special Memorial......

[singpilot]

to all the people injured and killed by trampolines.

Sunday night at 9, Comedy Channel.

[techweenie]

Would that be female people? Wearing skimpy clothing?

[singpilot]

Yep.

Actually sat next to one of the producers and his girlfriend at a Palisades dinner a couple of weeks ago. He thought the trampoline idea was stupid until the feedback started coming in.

At this big dinner table of 18 couples, every single man knew of the episode closing routine. Except for the producer's GF, not a single woman did.

Most common injury:


2 black eyes.


God love that show.

[Evans, Marv]

I think it's a really funny show. Of course my wife can't imagine why. I hope they haven't changed it.

I'm with you Wayne, Kimmel was the master... Once he left, so did I.

[singpilot]

I agreee, the new guys are even more juvenile than the masters.

The final straw was when one of them started showing up on the GGW infomercials.

I have the original series, but rarely watch the new one.

Yeah, I miss Jimmy Kimmel.
Much like I missed him on KROQ in LA.
Then he did " Ben Steins Money " part time.
Then left for good to do the man show.

It was the greatest morning show on KROQ :
Kevin&Bean
Jimmy Kimmel
Adam Carola ( Mr Bircham )
plus others

Seems like allot of people came from that LA station and are just climbing the ladders of the media beast.

KROQ people that have moved on to bigger and better things:
Carson Daly
Jimmel Kimmel
Adam Carolla
Dr Drew
TAD ( had a 2 week MTV thing )
plus others I'm sure

the Kevin and Bean show is the major stepping stone from the station (and it seems, from LA in general). Dr. Drew started way back when with Poorman doing LoveLine. Adam Carolla did bits with K&B, then took oever the LL co-host gig. Kimmel and Big Tad were bit players, then JK started doing sports, then more parts. Right now, I'm waiting for Ralhp Garman to get snapped up by someone. He's done some TV stuff, but he's quite funny, and does much better impressions than some of the "comedians" that come for visits.

It's not the same as before.

Agreed. Without Jimmy and Adam, the show has degraded (?????) from sophomoric humor down to the level of 6'th grade potty talk.

Rogan's best moments were on News Radio.
