Maximum Exposure (2000–2002)
Dude, this show rocks!
20 August 2002
Rarely in the course of human events can people view the tragedies that plague our fellow man and laugh our asses off at the same time. "Maximum Exposure" provides just that.

We have all seen those reality TV shows where the narrators describes the video (like we couldn't figure it out ourselves) and, in the cases of so-called comedy reality shows, the narrator makes really bad commentary in a futile attempt at a joke, such as "America's Funniest Home Videos." Max-X is not like those shows.

There is a narrator, in a sense. I view the narrator as a surfer dude who got a hold of some kick-ass videos and is now showing them to his best buds. Every week there is a theme, such as PainFest, Recipe for Disaster, and Wild in the Streets.

One specific example of a clip is this: A Greenpeace zodiac boat is trying to board a Russian ship that has been illegally clearing trees for lumber. One of the activists, a woman, manages to get on board. However, the Russian sailors throw her overboard. The surfer dude narrator states,

"Dude, you know there's something wrong when Russian sailors throw a perfectly good woman away!"

Max-X is the only reality show worth watching, period.
