Night Stand

Timothy Stack is maybe not so known for you people out there, but I must say that this man is one of the best comedians around the world.

He helps out to write on his own shows etc. and he plays his roles so good. The stupid, stupid guy who get's it right in the end anyway.

In Nightstand he played the Host Dick Dietrick and this is by far the best talkshow I've ever seen. NihtStand was a pure parody of most talkshows out there.. Springer show, Ricky Lake etc.

(In one show, can't remember the name of it though, there is this woman who starts to cry and Dick turns into the camera and says: They like this on Ricky you know)

Sadly NightStand is no more.. I recorded mostly every shows there was of it.. but I would like to see it released on DVD or something or maybe Timothy Stack will return in his amasing form as Dick Dietrick

This is a 10/10 show

Let us consider: 'Friends', one of the unfunniest, blandest "comedies", and I use that term loosely here, ever to grace the small screen, is a huge hit. 'Night Stand Starring Dick Dietrick' is hands down the funniest show in the history of television and barely lasted a season. In fact, this show (a satire of Jerry Springer/ Ricki Lake sleaz-oid talk shows) was so dead-on perfect, middle america probably thought it WAS a sleaz-oid talk show and the jokes sailed right on over their heads. Watching this show with my dad, is the only time I can remember the two of us laughing out loud together until South Park came along. I'm telling you, this show was so funny I almost died suffocating myself laughing so hard.

I never would have heard of "Night Stand" except for my ex-fiancé who was already a fan when we moved in together. We taped all of the episodes, replayed them and memorized entire sketches. There weren't many shows, but you guessed it, he took all the tapes. :sigh:

It was years before I could keep a straight face while snapping my fingers and saying bewilderedly, "oh people, no no." I used to wait for the chance to say that in staff meetings or anywhere a double entendre needed a quick response.

If "Night Stand" and "Sports Monster" (with Nick Bakay and Joe Bolster) are ever released on DVD, I will die happy.

This show is too funny. It's a shame they didn't make any more episodes of it, because it was hands down the very best talk show ever. Whenever Dick would make fun of a character by accident and say "no people, no" was just classic. And guest appearances by Jerry Springer were pure gold.

It's the funniest show I've ever seen and I for some strange reason it's impossible to watch.

TV will never be this good again. It's a genius show and an absolute crime I can't give anybody money to own the full show because I'd do it in a heartbeat and I know I'm not the only one who misses this show.

Bring it back!
