    • Trivia
      In the show's inception, producers commissioned 'Weird Al' Yankovic to write a theme song for the show. Yankovic wrote and recorded a song titled "Talk Soup", which the producers loved but ultimately decided not to use as the show's theme song. Yankovic included the song "Talk Soup" on his 8th studio album "Alapalooza" in 1993.

    What a damn funny show?

    Is it the sarcasm, or is it the images where John Henson makes fun of himself and the celebrities?

    Who knows, who cares!!!! This show is reaaaally funny, I watch it every time I can, I specially enjoy when they invite celebrities. 10 out of 10!!!!

    By the way, why did Kinnear quit the show? He wasn´t that bad....
