Monstervision

Monstervision is my all time favorite TV show. Joe Bob Briggs and his cheesy movies helped me get through countless tough Saturday nights. Even though I fell asleep during the second movie every week, I especially enjoyed Joe Bob's rants before each show and his tidbits in between commercials as well as Rusty the mail girl and obscure guests such as Linnea Quigly, Zachary Ty Bryan and Eugene Levy. The movies were great also. (the Guyver, Embrace of the Vampire, Voodoo, The Beastmaster, et. al. i recall Joe Bob's Friday the 13th marathon on Halloween being a real treat. I don't understand what happened to this great show. I came home from college for the summer one year and it was just gone. No explanation, no farewell show, just nothing!! Another network should pick up Monstervision or even just give Joe Bob another similar show. It had a cult following and no real competetion at 1:30 AM on saturdays...whats the problem??

Someone please get Joe Bob back on the air. He is THE MAN.

did TNT have to pull this show? This was a great show, with great, dumb cheesy B-horror flicks. I liked it when Joe Bob, made fun of the movies, and of the actors, as well as give some " May not have known" tid-bits about the movies. The drive-in totals were great.

7 dead bodies 1 slit throat 1 skull bashing Leg-fu Zombie-fu Chainsaw-fu Mummy-fu

it was great, TNT should at least put this in re-runs, or make new episodes.

Nobody here seems to remember MonsterVision before Joe Bob Briggs. While he is, by far, the most memorable host they ever had, there lots of great ones before like Penn and Teller.

One time they hosted "Night of the Lepus" a crappy flick about giant killer rabbits. Before the commercial break, Penn and Teller demonstrated how the special effects were done. He let a group of rabbits loose in a miniature town set and screamed like crazy "everybody run! killer Rabbits!!!" It was absolutely hysterical.

During that time, they played classic monster movies, some really great ones like The Blob and The Thing, but also lots of really bad ones like The Cyclops and The Giant Claw. One time they played Godzilla marathons all night, the last Saturday of every month.

It wasn't until Job Bob took over the show, when they started playing slasher flicks like Friday the 13th. His drive in totals are now infamous.

Great memories. Wish TNT would bring it back.

This show has become a tradition with me and my brother.Every saturday i watch and i get upset if i fall asleep in the middle of it.Most of the movies are good or are classics,but every once in a while they show a cheese flick or two.On a scale of * being horrid and ***** being great id give it a ****************

Every week I would watch TNT's Monstervision hosted by Joe Bob Briggs (John Bloom) and Renner St. John. Joe Bob was a hilarious host for this show! I just couldn't stop laughing sometimes when he would joke about movies. The show was a couple hours long and he would have some of the most outrageous low budget films ever. His hosting was really good and he has such a cool look. Renner St. John was OK as the mail girl but I loved it when Joe Bob would pick on her. This was truly on of the most exciting, funny, and special weekly program and its a shame that this great show is no longer airing. It was a real classic program and that in My opinion there will never be another one like this! If you have a video tape or can some how watch this show do it because I strongly recommend it!
