MHV #218 - THE STAR WARS HOLIDAY SPECIAL

It’s about time we tackled this, both Fasterpiece’d and with commercial breaks. The epochally banal ’78 variety special brings together TV stalwarts Harvey Korman(!), Art Carney(!!), and Bea Arthur(!!!!) with a whole family of grunting Wookies, the OG cast STAR WARS, a few musical numbers and a buckshot of comedy bits. It’s shot on video like a soap opera and ends up feeling like a transmission from Mars…or daytime programming on VIDEODROME’s Channel 83.

MHV #219 - ZSA ZSA GABOR on DONAHUE 1989

A charmer, an actress and a media-savvy legend of a certain kind, Zsa Zsa Gabor was more complicated than her reputation suggests. This intense one-on-one with Phil Donahue took place while her infamous '89 Beverly Hills trial (over slapping a cop during a traffic stop) was still in progress. Here, Zsa Zsa plays to the rafters, making a solid case for police reform while also steamrolling like a true narcissist.  What a performance!

MHV #220 - MANITOBA COMMERCIAL ZONE

Local commercials are one of our favorite found footage vibes ever. Tonight it’s another sizable block of charming thirty-second glimpses into the Midwest of the Great White North. You’ll see curling, drinking, advanced computing, low-budget mascots, indulgent desserts, traffic-jam chaos, documentaries in movie theaters, rattan furniture, and other hallmarks of post-modern Canadiana.

NO SHOW TONIGHT

A WORD FROM CREATIVE DIRECTOR BRET BERG:

Hello, all...just wanted to let everyone know that we won't have a Tuesday livestream this week. Back in 2020 we took off Election Night from our schedule, and this time around it's no different. 

I know it'd do good to focus everyone's energy on something other than TV news channels or doomscrolling. But I do also have my own sanity to protect. My plan is to disconnect for the evening and not look at election results until deep into the night, or the next morning. The last thing I need is for the livestream chatbox crammed full of *live election updates*, the very thing I'm looking to avoid on the night-of.  

Never has the term "go and touch grass" been more appropriate than this Tuesday night. I hope that you do the same.

We'll return to the live shows next week on Tuesday 11/12. The headliner next week is the STAR WARS HOLIDAY SPECIAL, which, when Fasterpiece'd and wth commercial blocks added, should be a doozy.

MHV #217 - RING, RING: A DOORBELL CAM FANTASIA

We’re finally airing the horror-inflected piece we’ve toured across the country at IRL shows! Our modern surveillance state is built one doorbell cam at a time. Nearly one in four U.S. homes is decked out with them; they’re literally everywhere. Thus the subculture of viral doorbell cam mixtapes was born, highlighting an ocean of creepy human behavior befitting a slasher film. In “Ring, Ring”, you’ll see the very best of porch thieves, patio punks, door-to-door doorbell lickers, local yokels flipping birds, scared-stiff missionaries, wasted grandmas, killer klowns, Karen-style freakouts, armed assailants, autonomous lawnmowers, pyrotechnic explosions, rainy day weirdos and the pure soulless eyes of chaos.

MHV #214 - GAME SHOW GALLERY: MOUTH TRAP

We’ve found it…we’ve found the loosest, most useless game show ever created. This pilot for the unsold 1979 show “Mouth Trap” looks like it was made for $20 and a sandwich. Celeb panelists like JM J. Bullock do word-association games with future “Double Dare” host Marc Summers as a contestant. The bonus round is made up of Cronenberg-ian 19th-century artifacts. The host looks like he doesn’t want to be there. This shit rocks!

MHV #213 - GILBERT GOTTFRIED ON “LATER WITH BOB COSTAS” '93

A classic example of Gilbert Gottfried in sublime overdrive. Here he lays waste to the totally square approach of “Later with Bob Costas” guest host Chris Connelly (yup, formerly from MTV News)...talking not just over him but up, down ,and all around him. Filmed during the peak of Gilbert’s fame from “Aladdin” at the dawn of the Bill Clinton era.

Hosted by Oprah, this low-stakes ceremony is a delight for fans of vintage soaps, game shows, and Saturday morning toons. AKA what would a vintage TV awards show look like if they assumed no one watching would actually care…? Lots of wayward podium schtick and a buncha soap emoting.

MHV #209 - KID NATION Part One

The most dangerous reality-TV kids show EVER. This infamous one-and-done 2007 competition show from CBS was an Old West version of “Lord of the Flies”, corralling forty children aged 8-15 into a social engineering experiment with few guardrails. After watching this, you’ll wonder how the producers weren’t sued into oblivion. Tonight is the first half of a two-parter, complete with added vintage commercial breaks!

AFTERNOON DELIGHT: GIRLS JUST WANT TO HAVE FUN (1985)

GIRLS JUST WANT TO HAVE FUN (1985)

This underrated banger is a sleepover classic, packed with cute young Muppet Baby versions of Hollywood stars you know and love. Sarah Jessica Parker plays Janey, a new transplant to Chicago whose uptight Army dad doesn’t want her to go out with boys OR try out for DanceTV (a popular local series hosted by radio legend Richard Blade). It’s a good thing Janey has a bi-panic-inducing friendship with Catholic school classmate Lynne (Helen Hunt), a punky smart-aleck who wears plastic toys on her head and is good at helping people sneak out of their houses. Essential viewing for those who enjoy dance-offs, class wars, nuns doing gymnastics, cinematic food fights, generation gaps, boob jokes, and teen romance. It also features familiar faces like Jonathan Silverman and an immensely loveable 13-year-old Shannen Doherty.

Our screening will be preceded by a 20-ish minute pre-show.

Hosted by Museum producer Jenny Nixon.
