A short-lived but funny-sounding comedy show that was on the Comedy Channel in the early 90s. Anyone got any of these episodes hanging around they'd be willing to trade?

Anyone got any of these episodes hanging around they'd be willing to trade? Lastdaysofrain 06-27-2006, 04:41 PM I've been looking for these for YEARS (along with a lot of other early Comedy Central/Channel stuff like Night After Night, Short Attention Span Theatre, The Sweet Life and Onion World) and NOBODY seems to have it. Famous Mortimer 06-28-2006, 03:19 AM Are there other rare TV boards that might have collectors of this stuff on them? I'm in the mood for a search. That, or take out classified ads in the main markets where the Comedy Channel ran. Famous Mortimer 07-25-2006, 07:43 AM I'm hoping one of the new readers of this board can now help out. Dig into those collections, people! debwalsh 07-25-2006, 07:59 AM I remember recording HB&G for the Supercar segments, but I didn't keep them, sorry. I'd record the show 5 days in a row, and not get two Supercar segments from the same episode, so I gave up after a while. I remember being really disappointed when the two channels combined and became Comedy Central, and the show wasn't retained. The Sweet Life (that was with Rachel Sweet, right?) was an acquired taste, really a spillover of the '80s into the early '90s. Alas, I don't have that one, either, and I'm kind of sorry I didn't record and keep at least a few. There are lots of shows I'm sorry I didn't keep over the years ... :< Lastdaysofrain 07-26-2006, 03:56 PM I REALLY loved The Sweet Life. My favorite episode was when John Waters co-hosted around the time Hairspray came out. I haven't encoutnered ANYONE on the trading circuit that seems to have any pre-Comedy Central Comedy Channel shows. If anyone ever finds any of the following I'd be very interested in a trade: Short Attention Span Theatre Comics Only Onion World The Sweet Life Higgins Boys and Gruber Night After Night with Alan Havey People definetely have MST3K episodes from that time, but nobody seemed to tape anything else. Famous Mortimer 07-27-2006, 05:33 AM I'm a member of an MST3K-specific board, so I'll get on it when I get home from work and see if anyone has any other shows from that time to trade.
