Yeah, Adam Corolla was the big star at the time because of Loveline. Kimmel was the host of Win Ben Stein’s Money and that was it. Speaking of which, what about Loveline? I remember loving the show for what they tackled, but Adam’s humor was a bit rough at times. I wonder if a show like Loveline could work today. I listened to LL since sixth grade. Then a few years ago, my gf and I went to randomly listen to it and they announced it’d be the last airing before stopping. Blew my mind. It’s back I think in some form..? Channel Q, Monday to Thursday, 7-9 PM Pacific. Single host now.

Took me some thinking, but The Man Show definitely wouldn't fly today, and thank god for that. I just revisited some clips and what a garbage fire of a show. I loved it 15 years ago. I hate it now. Nothing seems to age well anymore.

HandiMan from In Living Color. Men on Film too (and one could argue that the Homeboys Shopping Network was a negative stereotype as well. At least Homey the Clown and Fire Marshall Bill still hold up).

At least Homey the Clown and Fire Marshall Bill still hold up). Let's talk about the Latino equivalent - House of Buggin'. There are things that wouldn't fly in this day and age. For example, the Chicano Militant Minute with the over-the-top portrayal of cholos, and I speak as a Mexican-American person. But THIS, however, really would not fly at all:

Oh wow, I remember in high school, my buddy wearing a "Men. We're Just Better" t-shirt and getting dirty looks and comments from girls and staff. Haha. I also remember Jimmy and Adam going on, I wanna say Craig Kilborn, and at the end, they brought out two girls to jump on those mini trampolines you buy little kids or people work out on in their house. Anyways, one girl, I guess was jumping too hard near the edge, and it just flipped up on her, and she got f***ed up. She was fine, and laughed about it, but even at sixteen years old, I thought, "What loser neanderthals think girls jumping on trampolines is one of the sexiest things ever?" I did think the Karl Malone and Household Tips from Porn Stars was funny though. And while there's been backlash over the Karl Malone blackface stuff, Karl Malone even had fun with Jimmy about it.

Cryme Tyme was a blatant theft (pun intended) of the Homeboys Shopping Network. And before then Public Enemy did a ripoff for WCW. If someone tried to put In Living Color on a streaming service, it would probably be as shrunk down as Disney+ Dumbo will be. As in, you'd have enough left to fill the time Disney+ Dumbo totals to.

It wouldn't fly today, but it was hilarious. It’s hilarious to watch back these days cause of Kimmel. On top of everything else mentioned, Kimmel in blackface as Karl Malone. (all this is funny when you consider the commentary he presents regularly on his show now about [banned FAN topics]…)

I'm gonna guess when in the Lion King, Scar says "a monkey's uncle" That's a good parody, actual uncles might be offended.

There is also that too lol THo they thought they were slick enough to make the asian the black ranger and the black person the yellow ranger season 2
And they never did either of those pairings again until Operation Overdrive, where the Black Ranger is played by a black british man... and the character is a thief. Whoops. To be fair, the actor in real life is one as well.
