    Only one reason to watch...

    And that's for the central casting of a pre-stardom Steve Buscemi as the male lead in what is otherwise an unfunny and pointless episode of the MONSTERS TV show. BED AND BOAR is a one-note joke of an episode, with 90% of the action taking place in a motel room as a man finds himself seduced by a woman whose out of control husband is rampaging outside.

    The groan-worthy punning of the title gives some indication of what the viewer is in for here, namely a succession of lame pig-related jokes that fall flat every time. However, Buscemi is as reliably kooky as ever, delivering a subdued but somehow graceful performance that's the best thing in this episode. One for fans of the actor alone, then...

    Husband is a real pig!

    "Bed and Boar" episode 14 from season 2 of "Monsters" is one that's silly and far out a little funny actually it's more like dark horror comedy(as in the "Shining"). Set in a low rent motel John(early work from Steve Buscemi before "Tales from the Darkside" and "Boardwalk Empire") a traveling salesman happens to be in the wrong place at the wrong time as over in the room next door he hears a couple having marital words. Upon meeting Sue(Jodie Markell) she connects with John and sparks fly, however John is playing with fire as the words little little pig let me in will bear grave results. Again it's funny, cheesy, and different make all of the pig jokes and fairy tale comparisons you want still this episode is watchable with Steve and if you like the anthology series you will enjoy!
