>decided to watch this after literal schizo co-worker told me to check it out>laugh the hardest i ever have in years>nearly all the jokes hold up and many are funnier now than they would have been in the mid 2000sholy fuck this show is so good, it's actually the greatest sketch comedy show i've ever seen by a substantial margin, like i've always loved world peace and WKUK but those are nowhere near close to wonder showzen, why isn't it talked about or recognized more?
>>220612607Wondersjowzen > Xavier
>>220612607The warning at the beginning really explains it all
>KIDS ON THE BEAT>KIDS ON THE STREET>BEAT KIDS>BEAT KIDS
Hey kids it's important to be patient
>wonder showzen>has some of the greatest political comedy and satire ever put to TV>16 episodes, obscure and forgotten by the masses>south park>will make episodes about fucking internet memes doomed to be horrifically dated within weeks, sometimes mere days of airing >29 seasons, multiple movies/streaming specials, hailed as one of the greatest pieces of satire by youtube cartoon reviewers and redditorsI fucking hate normies
there's something i never got about this sketch. it's pretty obvious as to why the jew is a J but why is the muslim guy an 8? what is the significance of the number 8 in islam?
>>220612785did you not realize that Vernon Chatman, who co-created Wonder Showzen, has been writing on South Park for decades
>PLEASE TURN YOUR FACE AWAY FROM MY CAMERA
>>220612607Deep lore: Wonder Showzen was initially called Kidz Show and was a pilot for USA Network produced in 1999. USA Network rejected it, and it was passed around between many different channels until Avenue Q, a livepuppet show with foul-mouthed creatures became a huge hit on Broadway, then the show was picked up by MTV2 as Wonder Showzen.
>>220612607It's not very good just in case anyone was looking for a non-shill opinion.
>>220612953Did you not realize that none of that matters when anything he writes has to be filtered through two old unfunny out of touch kikes? Because I do.
>>220612953So fucking what, Tim Burton made Beetlejuice and Ed Wood that doesn’t mean Alice in Wonderland or Planet of the Apes were good
WHITE PEOPLE HAVING FUNGLOBAL DOMINATION OVER EVERYONE
>Vernon is writting a black guy white gf movie about his ancestors being slaves from the white gf family for Trey Parker moviebig yikes tho
>>220613056it’ll probably be funny because vernon is crazy
>>220612607I enjoyed when CN made the actual wonder showzen for childrenhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GhCxvZtSD8s
>tfw you will never be as perfect as tyler
>>220613093yes thisalso Vernon is half black half jew, his mental stability is about what you'd expect.
>>220612607Is that heckin WONDER SHOWZEN??Man I LURRRVE watching this show with my wife's son while she's out on a date with her Boyfriend.
>>220612645Its the same people lmao
>>220612607Truly an inspiring message of diversity.https://youtu.be/tLX_jUn8w3U?t=10
>>220612936Calip8. Kk it's because ones a number and ones a letter
>>2206129368 is the age that a muslim girl becomes a woman.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eO3fYphfzJEDid it better than both Big Mouth and Turning Red with a 2 minute bit.
>>220612607I like the rest of the show but the horse apples episode was pretty bad
>>220613135>>220612953I'm sorry are we suddenly not allowed to compare different pieces of work by the same artist now?Also this guy >>220613027 is right, Vernon is a crazy as fuck writer, artist, and comedian, whatever input he has put into south park, I've noticed none of it because it all goes through matt and trey at the end of the day, and they're so much more palatable for mainstream audiences and boring, whatever vernon adds it's inevitably going to get diluted beyond recognition by matt and trey.
>>220613252The show is amazing up until the last two episodes, it seems like they ran out of money, ideas, or both and just ended with pure filler before cancellation.
>>220612973YOU'RE BREAKING THE CAMERA!
>>220612973Always fucking hilarious how angry stupid people would get at the puppet instead of the puppetteer
>I know you're down there in Black heaven
>>220613333strangers arguing with clarence instead of vernon or the camera guy will always be the funniest shit to me.
>>220613280I liked the last episode better because it had Clarence but of all the segments they could've chosen to drag out for a whole episode horse apples really wasn't the one. I don't mind them making fun of rednecks but the show was best when it alternated between segments so none of them got stale.
>>220613115I always interpreted Xavier as how he sees himself for being mixed race. Just an absolute freak, spiritually and culturally untethered, deeply self hating. But I don't know if that's a conscious decision. It certainly aligns with some of the things I've heard from mixed race people.
>>220613366>everyone and their grandma does incredibly unfunny gi joe parodies>wonder showzen not only does the only good one but knocks it out of the fucking park Tank...TANK! What
>>220613115And he was always the funnier one. He worked on the chris rock show, louie, south park obviously. Where the hapa guy was directing gay shit like broad city and the terrible pee wee revival movie
>>220613376>sketch comedy show tries dragging out a single idea/segment for an entire episode Has this ever once worked out well?
>>220613453Monty Python managed it for an entire movie
>>220613376The episode where the second half of the episode was just the first half reversed was more entertaining than horse apples
Someone needs to do one of those deep dive charts for Vernons workOr I don't know, a mega of all his shit, I fucking love everything he's done with Jon Glaser
It's apalling how underrated and forgotten it is. Almost all examples of modern the hyper active surreal, existential, unhinged, and offensive humor that's common place today can be traced back to Wonder Showzen. People really have no clue how influential it was and still is.
I'm more impressed zoomers aren't having a panic attack over how "problematic" the show is to them.
>>220612607I try and talk about it all the time here
https://youtu.be/Km_0BQhAGsA
>>220613634Well it's from years before their time and is not in production anymore. Fussing over something dead is weird.
>>220613194Wow that's 8 times longer than the age of consent for Indian Hindus. I'm so happy our Lord Shiva was a pedophile who said "Women I created for bearing your seed, but the child with no menses is for relieving your lusts".
IM READY IF YOU'RE READY TO DIE
Alright fine you fags I'll watch a couple episodes. What should I expect from this unc shit?
>WHY IS YOUR FACE ALL BLURRY?
>>220613950fuck i always get a mean craving for chinese takeout anytime i watch this episode
>>220614027smoke a lil sumn sumn b4hand iykyk frfr
>>220613018>non-shill opinionThe show has been dead and gone for damn near 20 years at this point, what the fuck do you mean?
>>220614027same lol. 23 old zoomzom here
>GAMBLE>GAMBLE>GAMBLE>DIEEEEE
>>220613412it always felt like wonder showzen was his middle finger to the world and XRA was an exploration of him as a peron, albiet in the most abstract and "vernon" way possible. either way its kino, i love the man and anything he creates, he's a true pioneer of abstract and surreal art.
>>220614019The more I learn about other cultures the more I honestly believe that white supremacy is the best thing for the entire world.
>>220613135That's why he made the comparison you doofus
>>220612785Wondershowzen filters normies. Especially the Patience episode.
>>220612785not to mention two of those episodes might as well be feature length deleted scenes. more clarence is always nice but fuck that horse apples episode.
>>220614000Anon, people still bitch about Hitler and he hasn't been relevant in weeks.
>>220612759Patience> PatiencePatience> PatiencePatience> PatiencePatience> Patience
>>220615094WHAT ARE YOU RUNNING FROM!?
>Dont treat those with cooties any differently than other people, coz they're not even people.
Harmony Korine wrote the forward for the DVD release
Season 1 Wonder Showzen is kino and so is Xavier.
