The Worst Show on Earth – Détails, épisodes et analyse

Own the Zone™ and Raise the Flag™, media masochists! It's Anime Quarantine time again, and Murphy and Alex focus on the blessedly non-ecchi card battle genre! "Duel Masters" teaches us that you can't spell "cheating" without "chi", but how many timelines does a show need to truly explore a Magic: The Gathering ripoff? "Future Card Buddyfight" asks us to "luminize", but should that 10 foot tall dinosaur really have a crush on that 12-year-old? And should a 13-year-old really be entrusted with a flaming chainsaw sword the size of Tokyo Tower? All this plus two bonus rounds: The Amnesia Report and the dreaded Dishonorable Mention! Who would win in a duel: Gatling Skyterror or Jackknife Dragon? Let us know at worstshowonearth@gmail.com! See the research that drove Murphy mad: behold The Appendices! https://docs.google.com/document/d/12-ICgVjnNukPIGEEmrdYteZaJROYkX9rnWzaoto-QSg/edit?usp=sharing The Demi Dozen, our Scion 2nd Edition TTRPG actual play show, is now available on YouTube! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7_IrMYVRN7w&list=PLOyF_FU-q9cI1AVNnZOQ9tf4sjpq1s0Ba Edited by Michael T.

You've heard about it on The Simpsons and Arrested Development, but is the notoriously high concept My Mother the Car (1965) really one of the worst shows ever made? Alex, Murphy, and Rachel tune in to find out, but instead get fascinated by old-timey remote controls. Plus, another Isolation Letter from Tocci the Human IMDB!

We're all stuck inside with ample time to stream terrible TV, so Alex and Murphy did what all anime fans love to do: scream about how much they hate anime. In the inaugural Anime Quarantine, they explore the "ecchi" genre with 2016's "Keijo!!!!!!!!" and 2003's "Ikki Tousen". The depiction of women causes them to have physical revulsions! Plus, a quarantine missive from Tocci the Human IMDB, and a show so disgusting that it earned a Dishonorable Mention!

Rachel couldn't join this time around and she was the only one with standards, so Alex, Murphy, and Tocci watched some truly awful TV. The first was a UK show from 1990 called "Heil Honey I'm Home". It's a sitcom starring... Adolf Hitler and Eva Braun. If that weren't bad enough, we jump to 1995 animated MTV for the positively revolting "The Brothers Grunt"! Could it be that these could rival The Secret Diary of Desmond Pfieffer as the Absolute Worst?!?

It took some digging, but we finally unearthed 2007's much-maligned "Viva Laughlin". With a cast including Hugh Jackman, Mädchen Amick, D.B. Woodside, and Anna Kendrick, you'd think there'd be something salvageable here... right? Cancelled after only two episodes had aired, could this musical/"comedy"/drama be worse than even Cop Rock?

CORRECTION: Murphy says "My Mother the Car" got 3 seasons but it only got 1, with 30 aired episodes. He has been made to regret the error.

Astutely funny human Calder Holbrook joins us to try and make sense of the mid-90s syndicated non-sensation Baywatch Nights! On the docket are two serial killer themed episodes: "Deadly Vision" from season 1, and "Possessed" from season 2 -- and this time BOTH of them have supernatural angles!

The second installment of our Night & Day viewing of David Hasselhoff's "Baywatch Nights", where we watch one episode of each of the two seasons of the show, has some radical dudes and gill-ular dudettes. But a Wikipedia whoopsie may have given us more than we bargained for... or should I say less! Will all of us make it through "Bad Blades" and "The Creature"?

Next up, the syndicated mid-90s "Baywatch Nights"! No, not "Baywatch" -- "Baywatch Nights". Don't fret though, because it still has the franchise's biggest star: David Hasselhoff! The show made a serious shift in genre from season 1 to season 2, going from standard private eye stuff to supernatural shenanigans, so we're doing a good ol' "compare and contrast" to evaluate its entertainment value/crappiness. We're calling it the Night and Day viewing!

If you think Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker's marketing avalanche is bad, you clearly weren't around in 1978 when CBS debuted the Star Wars Holiday Special, never to air it again. Featuring almost all of the original movie's cast -- as well as The Carol Burnett Show's Harvey Korman -- our intrepid media masochists learn if it deserves its infamous reputation!
