I was flipping through stations last night because I refused to watch preseason football and saw that there was a reboot of The Gong Show. I watched for a little bit and got a few chuckles, probably because it made me reminisce about how ridiculous the original was.
Mike Myers is the emcee and was funny. Fotunately he put his own twist on the role instead of trying to just emulate Chuck Barris.
Does anyone else have fond memories of The Unknown Comic, Gene Gene The Dancing Machine, Jaye P. Morgan and the rest?
It was a great show, partly because it was the first of its kind, partly because it came at a time when pot was widely used.
