The 80s Strike Back
« on: October 22, 2003, 12:20:35 AM »
Why are The Donnas appearing as commentators on this?  Are they really that big?

Young MC is also on it. I don't think we're dealing with "big" on this show.

they are just picking people they thought would be funny.

my problem with the donnas being there is that they were born in the freaking 80s, so whatever they are talking about is via 90s high school nostalgia.

also, one speaks while the other sits with her mouth partly open dozing off.  which is sort of funny.

Why are you're being blithely, ignorantly argumentative?

It doesn't matter WHO'S on the show, as long as we have Michael Ian Black and Hal Sparks being hilarious AND adorable.

Were they ever wrong.
This show would be more bearable to watch if it didn't half all the asinine, not funny at all commentary in between segments.  At the very least they should stick to has been 80's icons, like the way they have Debbie Gibson and do without the commentary from people like Ashanti, the singer of Sugar Ray and yes the Donnas.

I was at least happy to know that the chicken nugget came to fast food in 1983. So I never got the chance to Know a life with out chicken nuggets

hal sparks sucks so much ass on this show. he makes me smile a few times, but mostly it is just pure annoyance when he speaks. he is not nearly as funny as he thinks he is. MIB, and mo rocca is all you need for this show. donal louge (however you spell his name) is a-ok as well. rachel harris is amazingly hot, so i like looking at her. other than that, the other folks are just filler.

If Hal Sparks sucks so much, why was HE in Dude, Where's My Car and YOU weren't?  Oh, that's right..he's AMAZING!

Hal Sparks = adorable, Queer as Folk sweetheart

Christian = creepy

There you have it.  The masses have spoken and they say, "Hal Sparks is an adorable, love-filled sweetheart".

I also like Hal Sparks on the VH1 list shows, but that could be because I had such low expectations for him after his hosting stint (years ago) on Talk Soup.  I don't know what he's changed about himself since then, but he's a lot funnier.
