I wish I'd known this earlier. I know it's one of the greatest shows ever, but all I've ever seen is the movie. (Don't lynch me, please!)
I've wanted to get into this series for ages now, but never been able to until now. So instead of lynching me, make with the suggestions about some good episodes, please.

Mr T L Wolf
Hank Scorpio
He has the looks of Andre the Giant, and the strength of Barry Windham. Not to mention he's a hero to a few armadillos, a kangaroo and a small herd of bison.

I haven't watched it, but I'm glad they finally made an effort to differentiate them. For a while there wasn't anything except maybe a title name to tell episode by episode on the "poster".

Never watched the show myself. Might give it a look sometime, but admittedly don't think it's the sort of thing I'd enjoy.

Just watch any of them. Honestly, you can't go wrong.
Well, ok, maybe some of the Season One episodes are slower paced (they were still getting their feet under them in terms of getting riffing down to an art form), but the show just never fails to entertain.
That said, don't go in expecting to bust a gut laughing every few minutes. It's a unique, different kind of humor; there's genuine laughing out loud mixed with just a sense of fun at what's happening, and the writers pull jokes from all sorts of places, including references you absolutely will not know in many cases. Still, it's just something in the execution that makes the whole thing work.

You can get only individual episodes and not the whole series sadly.

Unfortunately there's a good reason for that, and that's because of the rights for films for such distribution and such. *Shrugs, sticks to collecting the DVDs, both official and (for eps that haven't been released yet) non-official. |

It's a fun show to watch every now and again. I like the really old original ones before it was on Comedy Central where they didn't have a script for it or anything.

I always heard those movies were ones that the production company didn't like being spoofed so they wouldn't allow them the rights for them again. |

None of my favorites are on there like Prince of Space, Puma Man or Quest for the Delta Knights.
I REALLY wish they would stick them under one episode list though. Browsing them on the Wii absolutely sucks.

Godzilla vs. Megalon, you can only get on the Saved Queue and films that old on the Saved Queue.........you will be lucky if they ever have won. |
