Kenny vs. Spenny

Basically Kenny VS Spenny is about two best friends, each with radically differing personalities, who compete against each other, as the show states, for the Glory of winning. And what about the loser? HUMILIATION.

This show is without a doubt the most entertaining character study I have ever seen. Kenny is an over-the-top, narcissistic strategist, while Spenny is the neurotic, helpless do-gooder, who's main goal is to be the fair, moral competitor - so as to show the wrong-doings of his "best friend" Kenny. The personalities of the two absolutely MAKE this show for me. I enjoy nothing more than watching these two bicker, fight and basically drive each other crazy.

Kenny almost always cheats, but credit must be given to Spenny, not only for withstanding this torment week after week but for actually trying. Some of Kenny's devious plans are just mind-blowing. From the seemingly tame ("who is the better actor?"), to the downright stupid ("who can wear a dead octopus on their heads the longest?"), the competitions are endlessly engaging.

All I have to say is that this show is really great, and I can't speak highly enough about it. I just hope it doesn't get canned to make way for some cliché sitcom.

Great Show!

By far the most entertaining reality show ever produced.

Kenny and Spenny, two lifelong "best friends", battled in weekly competitions (spanning 87 episodes) with the loser having to do an act of humiliation of the winner's choosing. This aired on the Showcase network in Canada for six seasons but was never able to find a home in the U.S. as the Gameshow Network and Comedy Central each bumped it after one season.

Kenny cheats, lies and simply outwits Spenny to emerge victorious in an outstanding 70% of these competitions, resulting in Spenny's televised humiliations becoming a near weekly event. A MUST SEE for anyone with a sense of humor.

My personal favorites include "First One To Talk Loses", "Who Can Sell More Bibles?", "Who Is Funnier?", "Who does She Like Better?" and "Who Can Commit More Crime?", However the first season is a good starting point for any newcomers to the show as you can watch Kenny slowly break Spennys spirit throughout the duration of the series.

This show doesn't get nearly enough credit. It's such a classic showcase of human nature. It's reality television without all the trend and cheap sales tactics, and it's believable. Spenny is adorable, sexy in the most vulnerable and raw way imaginable. He's downright masochistic and he's the kind of personality that you can't stop watching even as he runs himself into the ground in a naive attempt to be "the better person". Kenny is cruel,and shrewd in a way that makes the competitions not only unfair but also a guilty pleasure for the more sadistic audience. How they stay friends is beyond me, but it is so much fun to watch Spenny become so stressed that he finally blows up. Seeing the "nice guy" get pushed to the point of fury over the smallest things is entertaining. I love Spenny's fussy, anxious, angst ridden demeanor, there is something so enticing about it. Kenny is the perfect one to pair up with him too, because he is brutal enough to treat Spenny with merciless disrespect, and that's what makes it so appealing.

Kenny Vs. Spenny is a Canadian reality/game show based television series about two childhood friends, with completely different personalities who battle against each other in Outragious competitions to see who is better at a task, such as wearing dead octopuses on there heads longer, to See who is a better Drag Queen to even seeing how long one of them can keep a poop in there diaper longer. Why? the opening theme explains it all. Glory for the winner. Humiliation for the Loser. Kenny Hotz is a manipulating Evil diabolical Genius. the "villain" of the show per-say. he will do everything in his power to win, even cheating. Spenny is a Paranoid, yet good natured "good guy" of the show and often plays by the rules. The humiliations involve a number of embarrassing stunts performed on national TV such as the Human Bidet, the dragged out prostitute on the corner, giving an old guy a sponge bath to eating a booger. The show airs Mondays at 9pm on Showcase and I recommend it to anyone who has a sense of humor.

This show kicks some hardcore ass. It's been compared to Odd Couple meets Survivor, and that's probably the easiest way to describe it. Two friends, Kenny Hotz and Spencer Rice compete against each other in competitions to see who can stand the longest, who can stay awake the longest, who can make a better woman, who can put on a better concert, who do girls like more, etc. Kenny, the evil genius, and Spenny, the one with moral integrity, are absolutely hilarious. This show is a Tuesday afternoon staple. It kicks ass!!
