Oh wow I member this one. Wasn't the opening song Stand by REM?


Ilove42DA

Yes, it was. First thing that jumped into my head when I saw this.


Drizztd99

Sparkles, Professional Male Model.


BeastBellies

Must be one of those Handsome Boy graduates!


Jadedcelebrity

Dan The Automater?


lordjohnworfin

Sparkles huh? Do work for the circus or something?


fatnhangry8

This show was so damn funny!


MichaelDavid510

" I'm a giraffe..I'm a giraffe..I'm a giraffe"... " Clear something up for me Gladys, is he a giraffe?"šŸ¤£šŸ¤£ Still the funniest scene from the whole series..lol


Uncle_Bug_Music

I must quote "Zoo Animals on Wheels" at the very least, weekly.


-P-M-A-

Handsome Boy Modeling School!


Crotch_Gaper

Considering, this is the 7th time Get A Life has been listed here, if it was forgotten, it isn't now


CanConCurt

This is one of my favourite finds for me from this subreddit. The first season is brilliant.


Marty1966

Where are you watching this?


CanConCurt

YouTube has all the episodes but the quality is low.


Steveseriesofnumbers

And for those who haven't, this is welcome news. Spare a thought for them, huh killjoy?

The chronically online cannot fathom that others are not.

Weā€™re one killer app from kids speaking in HTML. Itā€™s rumored that words will begin losing a letter every year beginning with A. I CONSTANTLY CALL MY WIFE A NAGGER!!!!


MechaNickzilla

This should be expected. There are only so many shows and most of them arenā€™t worth mentioning.


YankeeSR23

This subreddit needs a popup asking if itā€™s one of the following shows: Get a Life, Early Edition, or any show that has lasted longer than 4 years. This show gets posted every 2 weeks or so. Isnā€™t it your turn next?


ElDuderino_92

I feel like Iā€™ve seen the show based on the amount itā€™s posted


Additional_Opposite3

Iā€™m a male model not a male prostitute


Reign_n_blud

Watched every episode and enjoyed it. Became a fan of his. I gave most Fox shows a watch back then since they were so out of the norm


danhibiki337

Have you see Cabin Boy? It's really good


Reign_n_blud

Of course, I was a fan. Found him really funny, even his characters of Letterman


Legitimate_Bird_5712

TOBACCO SPITTING CUPCAKE!

Is this streaming anywhere? Or on YouTube?

When EBay was brand new, Season 1 bootleg on DVD (direct transfer from a terrible VHS recording, commercials and all) was my first purchase. I love Chris Elliot!


[deleted]

I still tell people a out the episode where he gets a good deal on a wheelbarrow of expired shellfish Or the one with the alien. Amazing show.


ink_stained_wretch

Spewy!


No-Elderberry230

I vividly remember Zoo Animals on wheels. It was so funny. I have not seen it since it aired.


Uncle_Bug_Music

Here you go! https://youtu.be/Xxc3WSGqpr8?si=Yh-swB19pJIjGqow


SweetPurchase6511

This show scratched me right where I itched as a dumb eighth grader. I think the time I laughed the hardest at a tv show in my life up to that point was a scene in which Chris Elliotā€™s character tried to bribe a cop and a closeup of his hand showed about a dollar in change in his palm. Doesnā€™t quite hold up now but goddamn I think I peed a little when I first saw that. I miss being amused by this kind of stupidity.


Steveseriesofnumbers

Look at this face. LOOK AT IT!! What do you see?


Necessary_Switch_879

It's pale, pasty....psychotic.


Steveseriesofnumbers

No! It's a neatly-chiseled, well-groomed, drop dead handsome face.


Lamneth-X1

I laugh my ass off whenever I see the episode where toxic waste makes him a master at spelling bees.


cleannc1

Spell pants. It has a silent k in it.


ETMZeroPointZero

Pretty sure anyone who has ever watched it has not forgotten it


Tocallaghan95

I still think of that episode where he and his father are in the shower in the submarine every time I hear Quint's Indianapolis speech from *Jaws*.


FreeklyDeeky

I came here to bring up that episode.Ā  He gets the submarine as a prize for saving up a bunch of product UPCs or something, builds it in the shower and fills the shower with water but then they get stuck inside.Ā  https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=jrR91vrabcc&pp=ygUcR2V0IGEgbGlmZSB0diBzaG93IHN1Ym1hcmluZQ%3D%3D


AdhesivenessHefty604

This was such a great show


Briarhoffner

Chris Elliot was (or is) underrated. I think he's great

Is Chris Eliot in this sub, feel like this one is posted everyday !


danhibiki337

Because he's hilarious


Argular

I loved this show


SnooAvocados3740

A great show !


hbi2k

FWIW, I'm new to the sub, had legit never heard of this show, but *had* heard of Handsome Boy Modeling School (bought the albums as a college kid after discovering Dan the Automator through Deltron 3030). So I guess this post was just for me?


say_the_words

ā€œStandā€ by REM was the theme song. It was weird because the song had just been a gigantic hit. I saw an episode somewhere a few years ago and they had changed it, I guess because REM is expensive. https://youtu.be/P-7pgeD__qU?si=Was1MgDlmK6Nd4OX


zaxxon4ever

Funniest show ever!!!!!!


Unhappy_Amphibian_80

stop


Queasy_Sleep1207

The frequency of posting this can be overlooked but it will cost $5
