Who else loves watching them bring the pain? Spike has made a killing with the MXC dubs, but some of the stuff on YouTube just kills me.
My favorite from YouTube: a game show where the consequence for a wrong answer is a nut smacking machine. |

Somebody is screaming while a lizard runs around in a cage. The host is yelling (presumably questions or insults) while the crowd is going ape****. Suddenly a guy falls down a hole or gets lilt on fire or gets hit in the nuts. I laugh because of the physical humor mostly.

MXC is (was?) one of my guilty pleasures and one of the few shows that my kids (both teens) will watch with me.

|  | The Lowdown Diggler | | Join Date: Apr 2006 Location: Huntington Beach, CA | | | London Boots had a game show (kind of) called "The Stinger", where these J-Pop singers in a J-Pop group would try to lure chicks to hook up with them back at their apartment where their boyfriend would be waiting for them. I swear. These chicks were smoking hot. Nothing sexier than a shamed smoking hot Japanese chick. The would get down on their knees and bow to their dude. Even writing about it I get a big grin on my face. Beautiful. |
