The Weird Al Show

I miss this show it was funny, I loved the parodies of the milk ads and TV shows like Sabrina, The Teenage Fish and Mummy and Daddy, and the 50% Chance of Rain,Fatman,Harvery the Hamster and Fred Higgans, which were all hilarious i get cracked up just thinking about them also I don't remember the musical guests and there were also weird regulars, and the parodies of those 50's school film It's kind of like Pee-Wee's Playhouse only crazier. My cousin (who is 30 something year old guy) thought it was interesting because where he lived it came on before a farming program.

Why this show was cancelled so quick is beyond me. Oh yeah... the ratings. Well it's not the show's fault, it was the time slot (it was on at 8:30am on Saturdays where I live). This show was great nontheless with its take on the kid show genre in general. I still love the Bill Nye parody where everyone is singing "The Grass is Green" (you have to see it to understand) and the 80% Chance of Rain (a spoof on disaster movies). I hope they release these on tape sometime soon.

The reason I watched this show is because I'm a huge fan of Weird Al Yankovic. I think it would be cool if Nicklodeon aired reruns of this show. If this show ever comes back on and if your a big fan of Weird Al Yankovic then this is the show for you. I know I liked it.

Pretty funny in general, but probably a couple of things sunk it. It was (I guess) a CBS kid's morning show, but CBS didn't bother to really include it on their Saturday morning schedule. So the affiliates that did air it showed it in dozens of different time slots.

Also, it had to be rated as "educational programming" (the "EE" or whatever), so there was always some message. Although Al managed to pretty end up parodying that every week, too.

The main problem was that folks probably didn't get it. Unlike Pee Wee Herman when Playhouse came out, Weird Al was already pretty well established. Those who didn't like him avoided the show, meaning it was basically his fans tuning in. Along with the mobile time slotting, that probably accounted for its departure after a year. Which is a shame, but there you go.

Weird Al Yankovics TV show is a good comedy that if you can get your hands on a copy you should definitely watch as it has lots of scenes that had me in stitches(for example The "Grass is green" segment is so funny.)The show is about the daily life of Al and he has many adventures where at the end he learns a responsibility. The funniest bits in the show are bits from T.V or mini movies he puts on. The show has bits where it is just stupid but most of it is very funny and really quite entertaining. Overall I rate this movie pretty high even though it is not the best nor funniest show in the world it is good for quite a few chuckles so I rate it a pretty solid 73% and I hope they make more episodes one day.
