I Wish Every TV Show Was Like This
Wonder Showzen Pilot - Watch more free videos
A couple years ago, MTV put out a little show called Wonder Showzen. It was a pretty special show that had children and puppets doing things that you don’t normally see children and puppets doing. This video was their original unaired pilot. And while I use hyperbole more than anyone in the entire world, this is the greatest thing I have ever seen in my life.
I know this video is a little long, but please just get to the part where the children are narrating a hot dog factory video (at about the 4:40 mark). There are so many unreal quotes (”Save me the forehead.” “That man said he has enough meat in his pants to make 24 hot dogs.” “Hot dogs give me energy, so I can fight off my daddy.”) that it will make just make your life better.

The world simply isn’t ready for Wondershowzen. It’s possible that it never will be - but I pray, oh how I pray, that someday that world will be ours.

I saw this on Friday night, except I was at a bar and watching some drunk dude recite what I could only understand as the Klingon alphabet backwards. All this was happening on stage since it was karaoke night, by the way.
Lesson learned from this: People suck at karoake’ing Nickelback.

If you didn’t laugh at that video you don’t love America.

Actually I believe this pilot was titled Kids Show and was for Comedy Central, and after being turned down it circulated the web for a year or 2 before being picked up by MTV. I think.

I only watched the first half of it, but most of it was aired in actual episodes. But, aside from all the negativity… wonder showzen was one of the most slept-on and underrated shows of all time. It’s amazing the stuff they’ve been able to get away with on that show. You guys just wish you had as good of taste for quality programming, haha. Good find!
