Trading spouses clip that I found

Now that's lame! Oh I was surfing channels last week after I came home from work and watched a Parental Control that really looked fake as hell. It had a pretty decent looking girl who had a boyfriend who supposedly really thought himself a Paladin, with healing powers. He carried around a plastic sword and wore a viking helmet. The parents picked two decent looking douches for her, but in the end she stuck with her Palandin (Level 12!). I wish they'd re-run some of those old Boiling Points if they are going to re-run stuff on MTV. I don't know if you ever saw that show, guess it's been about 2 years now. They had various clever actors and actresses go around to try to purposely piss people off. If a person didn't get mad after a certain amount of time, they won $100. Most people though didn't get that far LOL. I'll never forget the Umbrella Stand skit, where faulty umbrellas were sold (holes in them or they wouldn't open). This one Asian man got sooo pissed I thought he was going to have an anurysm! Give It Toooo Meeee!

Yes I loved Boiling Points, wondered where it went to. Girls Behaving Badly is also hilarious, ever seen that one? The actors in it are sooo good at keeping up the ruse. I love hidden camera shows once they have clever skits and actors in it. Jackass went too far and just served to gross me out, plus the skits began to get more and more stupid. There's another good one with that black comic guy "hosting" it that is funny as hell. It's on BET network (although the one issue I have with is you never get to see the immediate reaction when they find out it's all a joke).

I think the key in these hidden camera shows is to have the most disciplined actors who can keep a straight face through it all. I liked Punk'd until Ashton Kutcher got all nuts, now I can't bear to watch him cause honestly, he never knows when to stfu and just let me watch the prank. Did you ever see a show called Trigger Happy Tv? My god it is one of the funniest shows on tv, my favourite out of all these. I have series 1 and 2 on DVD and I laugh hysterically each time I watch them.

For your viewing pleasure

Eef.. I'm a churchgoing Christian, but that woman is just a wee bit on the EXTREMELY OVERZEALOUS AND crazy side.. sorry... I too, avoid tarot and psychics and all that stuff for religious reasons but I'm able to avoid screaming at my family about it for hours.. or going off the deep end... geez, almost makes ya want raw meat... *snicker* She almost sounds like she's having an emotional breakdown or mental fit... eef!

[Ladyzekke]

Don't eat the raw meat!!!! It unbalances your entire system and you turn into a crying baby in a dirty bathroom!

Spiritwarrior - Looked at your clips, the Girls Behaving Badly was funny, I especially liked the sound effects LOL.

Jackass I totally agree with you. It was intriguing at first, but then they started to just do gross stuff that wasn't funny at all. For instance, hard boiled egg eating contest with lots of puking. Not a fan of puking in any way for any show.

Gawd I so agree too re Ashton Kutcher! I loved the first season of Punk'd, but something happened in time. I recall one particularly annoying "Choo Chooo!" thing he did in one episode that really amped up my hate for him LOL. He got so irritating, with his hats and his scruffy face and loud mouth. I'd have continued to watch the show if they used someone else to host it, ANYONE else.

And No I haven't ever seen a Trigger Happy TV. What channel did it air on? Have to look for it next time I'm at Bestbuy.

Oh god I remember that Punk'd. I think that was actually one of my breaking points. He was saying something like "Here comes the train for you XYZ celebrity!" and he marched up and down the screen, pulling an imaginary rope and saying "choo choo!" for a good 10 minutes. Time that we will never get back. It was then I knew Ashton had finally cracked.

Trigger Happy used to be on Comedy Central. It was a UK based show but probably one of the first (and most original IMHO) hidden camera shows. The guy is so hilarious to me. I am pretty sure you won't regret picking up a DVD of it, you may even find it for rental somewhere. The dude that does all the skits is a pro at playing the parts and usually it's him doing everything.

Found one on youtube (how good is this video embedding feature btw!?). This is where he calls for a chimney-sweep.

[SpiritWarrior]

LOL I found a whole string of them.

[Ladyzekke]

yeah it was like "Choo Choo Just Die Already OK?" But he never died



Oh I DID see that show! Had forgotten it's title "Trigger Happy". Long time no see! Have to say people in the UK are much more polite when confronted with a weirdo LOL. Oh I miss that show, forgot all about it!

*I'm trying to Relax!"

Spiritwarrior - Did you ever see Joe Schmo, the first season?

Ya think? That woman is SERIOUSLY deranged and in serious need of electroshock AND heavy medication. Scariest person I've seen in a LONG time ....

I think I saw it. Or was it the one where one of them was really a millionare? I think it was that more recent one that was kinda like "The Truman show" movie? That idea I liked. There's so many on now that I can't keep track.

No, Joe Schmo was a very clever show that aired on Spike TV a few years ago. It was made to appear to be a Big Brother type reality show where all the contestants lived in the same house, had to participate in wacky contests, and one got eliminated each week. It also had a host. What made it clever though was that EVERYONE was an actor or actress except for ONE guy, aka the "Joe Schmo." This poor one guy was the nicest guy, and boy did they mess with him over and over again. He truly never caught on that he was being set up and surrounded by actors. The producers would also go by his reactions to calculate what everyone was to do next. It was the most hilarious show I've ever seen. I bought the DVD because it truly is a classic. They made a Joe Schmo 2 as well, but it wasn't as good. So if you ever want to check it out, make sure to get the first one.
