You Can't Do That On The Internet

Postby startreking » 01 Jan 2007, 08:52

Sorry about the title but I finally figured out why I like your videos.

You guys seem to have the same kind of humor that tv show "You Cant Do That On Television" had.

[edit] removed an extra "the" from that last sentence, to avoid fines from the grammar police.

Those are sorta vague reasons and don't really have anything to do with the actual feel of the show...

Hello... Canadian...

I'm not sure why, particularly when everyday Canadian culture isn't obviously different from northern American culture, but Canadian humor has a distinct and identifiable tone. It's a little like British humor.

Interestingly, the site Graham got the picture from says YCDTOTV wasn't much watched in Canada. Really? That's so weird...

I know.

LRR is not owned by CJOH so I don't expect the feel of the show to be the same.

Look at Red Dwarf US version didn't work. UK version worked, and then distributed to all of us.

If LRR where made over here, I have no idea how Canada (or Uncle Sam) Man would work

Correct.

Shall we debate about "mystery can showdown" or "Lesser Gods of Innocous Household Things"?

Instead of debating the similarity of comedy shows, how's about we eat some broken glass?

I hear that you figure it'll probably be lime, but it turns out to be green apple or some shit.

Honestly, if candy manufacturers can't stick to the established language of candy colouring, they ought to be shot.
