OT: Remembering "The Man Show"

Submitted by Bosch on

Today's "odd name" discussions got me thinking about The Man Show..... indirectly that is.  It actually got me thinking about a a name that I heard recently.  My mother and wife are both teachers and were talking about something student related.  I was tuning out their discussion.... until I heard one of the names of the students they were talking about...... Michael Hunt.  I wanted to confirm that I heard that correctly, but I couldn't bring myself to ask my mother if she had just said what I thought she said, not that it mattered because neither my wife nor my mother were going to share the same immature emotions that were racing around in my head.  There are unique names.  There are odd names.  But Michael Hunt is fucking cruel.

Anyway, this got me thinking about The Man Show as I believe they had a bit where they would invite people on the show who had unfortunate first and last name combinations.  Then this got me thinking about The Man Show is general (yeah, a day in my life).

For those of you who watched the show, how disappointed were you when they called it quits?  The show probably put a strain on a lot of relationships, but it was good television. 

A few memories:

There was an episode where Adam and Jimmy played strip basketball against the Juggy Twins.  The Twins got them down to their tighty whities and then Adam and Jimmy buckled down and ground out the victory.  Unfortunately, as the show was on basic cable, the Juggies' assets were left up to the imagination.  Here is the clip.  Even with the fuzziness, it is probably NSFW.  You are warned

And who can forget The Man Show Boy?.  I always assumed that Adam and/or Jimmy were feeding him his lines but, either way, his one liners were classic.  A couple for your pleasure (also may be NSFW due to language):
