..holy fuck,has anyone seen this?american entertainment has reached an all time low when fat people trying to jump through holes is a prime time television show.
Now,I'm not the "throw away your television" intellectual hippie type,i gotta have my news ,movies,and family guy...but still i feel really,really sorry for people that are actually entertained by this ridiculous shit.

yup shits sad man lol

True, but this phenomena actually started in Japan with all their crazy gameshows. The fat people is just to make the concept more familiar with Americans.

i actually got to catch this, i was "high" watching this so for me it was stupid funny, especially the "blind wall," if you make it to the end you face the blind wall, where they put on goggles in which you can't see through. then your team mates have to lead you through the wall, so far no one has gotten through it, it funny cause they get smacked by the wall, kind of being blind sided, on a side note there weren't fat people on the episode i saw... i guess i'm the only one here who watched the whole show, sorry...lol..peace

I'm glad I've got rid of my television a long time ago though... I'm definitely not really the hippie kind of type, it simply broke and I did not buy a new one (yet?).

However, the current television programs, whether local ones or international ones, are indeed at an all time low. What ever happened to some serious content, some serious, but still funny entertainment?

I'm glad there's still The Daily Show and so on... but damn, you're so right about the mediocre trash that's on lately.

CurrentTV is pretty interesting, Comcast carries it here in the SF Bay Area but they also have a website.

Same thing over here. Now, I got some old ass east german tv, shit is sooo oldschool. Only 6 programs, no remote control... it's like stone age but it kept me away from all that visual crap. You know my TV always was running while making a beat and everything. Nowadays I'll light up a candle instead of the TV when I'm makin music.

*double trouble*

Late night flicks can be sample gold, obviously. The hole in the wall thing is actually just one tiny bit off Takeshi's Castle, broadcast over here as MXC. That show's funny as shit actually, you get to watch people really hurt themselves trying some video game level stunts. Hahaha other people's pain.

aesop rock - tel lie vision.mp3 - 2.10MB

Basic Cable - Aesop Rock
So on point in lyrics and emotion.
i couldnt recognise aes' voice in tel lie vision? what album/show is it from?
I gave up on tellevision about 6 months ago. all because my telly broke, around the same time my 404 arrived. now instead of entertaining myself with the product of some one elses effort, im entertaining myself with the product of my own. not much is worth watching, and what is i can see on dvd/internet. all i watch are some good comedies (office, extras, the mighty boosh, some australian comedy)...adult swim shit...maybe a good foreign movie or a doco. the rest is a shitty mess of gimicks and one sided journolism. which i guess is funny to watch anyway
