awesome show

this was such a cool show i only remember watching it in the 90's though since i was born in 1989. I felt that as the years progressed it became funnier and funnier. The best part about the show was the spontaneity of it and the ability to appeal to all ages. Russell Gilbert and Plucka Duck were my favorite and if i recall Russell even had a spin off show which was just as hilarious. Anyway this show will be forever missed hopefully it will be on DVD soon. Segments such as Red Faces, celebrity heads, funny fotos and plucka duck were awesome. Great show too bad it was cancelled hopefully another show will be created soon similar to this.
