Does anyone remember this show? While it wasnt perfect and was a victim of the E/I rule (every episode was forced to shoehorn in a moral), it still has that Weird Al charm.

When he had Macho on, Macho was adamant he wasn’t jobbing to a hamster. Al explained that it was funny, of course a hamster can’t beat up a human. Savage was happy with that explanation but had a follow up question, “It’s not a girl hamster is it?!”

It was a fun idea for a show constricted by CBS management. Listen to Al's commentary tracks on the DVD set- it's very interesting. You can tell he wanted so bad for the show to be funny and entertaining and got frustrated by how he was handcuffed by CBS into forcing educational content into the plot lines.

It was the last Sat Am show i bothered to watch. Was in my mid 20s when it started. And would either watch it at work,or at home.

Whats worse is that since he had to "learn a lesson" each episode, he ended up looking like a jerk until he learned said lesson. |

I'm seriously shocked that PETA didn't issue a Press Release complaining about this. |

To this day, whenever my brother gets a haircut I reference this song.

I believe this was the last piece of media to feature the glasses/mustached Al look

I recently rewatched the whole series on Tubi. Its a lot of fun and the best parts were probably his various TV parodies. I've also had the theme song memorized for years. I still feel bad for poor Mippy when Uncle Ralphie tied him up and forced him to watched Paulie Shore movies.  |
