During the summer of 1998, I watched approximately 24 episodes of The Magic Hour, perhaps the worst show in the history of television. But it was appointment viewing. Each episode offered many, many minutes of conversational fodder for the following day. And nothing has approached it since.
Weekends With Maury & Connie, however, is as close as I've seen. Because not enough people are watching TV at 10am on Saturday, I don't see this catching on in a must-see-because-it-sucks-so-badly kind of way. At least Magic was likable. Let's just say these two aren't.
But if you happen upon this train wreck, give it five minutes. Then pass it on.
Connie just ended the show with an embarrassing dance, chanting "Go Condi! Go Condi! Go Condi!"

Oh my...I think I watched every episode of The Magic Hour one "Magical" summer. My friends and I would sit around, eat tamales, play cribbage and laugh at Magic's non-mastery of the spoken word. Shouldn't you know how to talk before you have a talk show? I'm from Grand Ledge, right outside of Magic's hometown of Lansing, so I know plenty about Magic. What I know most is that his TV show will go down in history as probably the worst talk show ever! If that other show thinks they can hold Magic's jock, I'd suggest they wear latex gloves.
Frightening.
And I thought SNL has sucked for over 5 years.
Funny... that's about the time Bush took over as dictator.
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...
