Please pass the brain bleach (RDA video)

The best thing I can say about this is that RDA wasn't the worst actor involved, although he was mighty bad.

It was a planned spinoff of The Facts of Life, wherein Tootie's aunt is married to a white man.

/o\ OMG PAINFUL! All the way around! "Nummers!"? D:

(And, damn, that show's so old they have rotary dial phones!)

I think I'll go read some Macgyver/penguins bukkake--it's less soul-searing than this.

The script, the premise, the delivery of the lame dialogue.

I can't believe I watched all three parts! TEH PAIN!

[lolmac]

I had already seen part of this a while back, and mostly giggled at the amazing youthful dreadfulness.

On reflection, I think it's much easier to watch with the sound off. I also have my doubts as to whether it would actually be possible not to be awful in the circumstances.

[lolmac]

Mac/penguins bukkake? You terrify me.

[sid]

The circumstances are dire indeed. No Academy Award winner could pull off that dialogue, especially if paired with that "actress". Hoo Boy.

[archersangel]

for my own sanity piece of mind, i'm going to give this a pass. tv history is littered with the wreckage of pilots that didn't work out isn't it?

[sid]

And if they were all as poorly executed as this one, it isn't any wonder! LOL

[etrangerici]

I try and try and TRY... but... I just CAN'T!

How did you ever find this thing?

O.O

Truly, I am in awe (and cringeing) at your google-fu.

[sid]

I can take no credit for the discovery. I found it on The A.V. Club's TV section in this post about failed back-door pilots.

[green_grrl]

I can't bring myself to go find 2 and 3. Not even for RDA! *wince*

[green_grrl]

It's not like I wrote it. I mean, is it so bad if I only link to it?

Muah ha ha ha!

[catsmeow]

Oh man. I remember thinking this show was lame when it was in its first airing, but I was wrong. This isn't lame. This is dire. HA!

[sid]

I deliberately didn't link to them. If y'all want to commit further atrocities upon your senses, you're on your own. ;-)

[sid]

You're welcome! :-D

Srsly, it's amazing that such dreck was actually put on the air. *shakes head*

See, this is what you get when you wake up at 4 a.m. and can't get back to sleep....Oy!....brain bleach yup....this is a doozy!!!....*snerk*...

[sid]

LOL, you may never sleep again!

[sarkka]

"what's not to love"



Oy oy...... =D

[sid]

It's the waggling eyebrows after that line that make it really cringe-worthy, lol.

[jdjunkie]

OMG the horror.
It's worse than beagle!fic.

[sid]

I think you're right about that! LOL

[magnavox-23.livejournal.com]

Oh. My. God.

[sid]

[sid]
