How did this become popular?


When I first saw Adam Corrolla, my initial reaction was; 'Did Jerry Sinfield have a stroke?' & Jimmy Kimmel as some poser-nerd who makes up the ham & cheese.

Granted, the both of them were miles better than the other hosts, those guys should've taken some time off to let their voices finish breaking...

Then they wouldn't have sounded like fratboy wankers.

'Marilyn Monroe was an animatronic robot sent back from the future to elimate Clark Gable.'

That and it ruled

The Boogeyman is real... and you've found him!

Because men like me really really laughed at it, and it had super hot chicks, is that a good enough reason? And women do like it, believe me, they wont admit it but the damn show is funny..

Oh, this woman will admit it. I loved it when Jimmy and Adam hosted this gem. I don't think I made it through three episodes after they left

reply

This show was hilarious. It was comedy and nothing more. Sexist? Nope. Just stupid fun.

reply

It became popular because it was made and catered to Men and no one else. We have a right to our own entertainment.

Also made before worldwide access to internet porn.

Shows like this and other Benny Hill type of shows that got ratings from sex appeal disappeared when porn became ubiquitous.

reply

What the fuck are you talking about?
In 99 internet porn was as ubiquitous as it is now.

reply

Yes you are right. It DID exist, but it was at a infantile state, pictures were fine, video probably took awhile to download.

It's effect on society was not as great as it is today.

Guys just don't demand sex on TV anymore because they can get their rocks off much easier now.
