Favorite Comedy Central original show

TV Funhouse, hands down.

Mondays is 2000 were amazing.

 

Buddy, you managed to pick a show that isn't a Comedy Central original. Debuted on SNL.

Boring, but my answers are probably South Park and Chappelle's Show. Both were kind of megawatt bombs of popularity with teenagers, the age group I was in for most of their runs. When it comes to Weirdo Comedy Central shows, Nathan For You is probably the best, but I have a soft spot for things like Let's Bowl, too. Early Tosh.0 was fun too, until you realized he didn't really have any other gear.

 

TV Funhouse the show was a Comedy Central original. What Smigel did on SNL was a sketch. TV Funhouse was a fleshed out show.

 

I will meet you in Temecula.

 

Win Ben Stein's Money was perhaps the best premise for a competition show.

 

I have nostalgia for early Reno 911

 

Kerri Kenney-Silver is a genius.

 

It's like saying "The Simpsons" was the same thing as what was on "The Tracey Ullman Show."

 

Wasn't just teens, I had just turned 30 in 1998 and was in my favorite bar on April 1. It was PACKED with people there to watch the reveal of Cartman's father. Half of them were pissed about the Terrance & Phillip swerve, half enjoyed the prank.

That said, I'll take "The Daily Show" as my favorite original program - even when Kilborn hosted.

 

I watched and loved the Colbert Report for a long time without realizing it was a Bill O'Reilly parody as I never watched Fox.

 

As a UConn student from 94-98, Comedy Central took up a large part of my TV viewing.

The Daily Show (remember when Kilborn’s first season didn’t have a studio audience?) followed by WBSM were must-see TV for me. MST3K, Exit 57, Lounge Lizards, and later South Park.

But I also watched to a lesser extent Viva Variety, The Critic, Dr Katz, Pulp Comics …

Loved Insomniac with Dave Attell.

Also recall one show, don’t remember what it was, where Michael Moore drove a truck through the Deep South with a large hammer and sickle on the side of the trailer, and in the middle of the night at one point it was set on fire …

Someone on YouTube posted only the commercials from Comedy Central from the mid to late 90s and that is a terrific trip down memory lane.
