I'm rewatching The Onion News Network!

[weekender]

Anyone fancy a rewatch of these?

8 seconds in and this is what's happened over a load of incredibly professional graphics:

When the real world is gripped by confusion and terror, there's only one news network you can turn to.

Cut to another graphic:

It's definitely the most exciting school shooting in years!

Laughing already.

I'm looking forward to seeing their autistic reporter Michael Falk again:

My gut feeling is that I remember laughing more at Onion Sportsdome that I did at Onion News Network (not that I didn't laugh at that), but it's going to be interesting to watch them again.

Anyone?  PM me if you don't know what I'm talking about.

My gut feeling is that I remember laughing more at Onion Sportsdome that I did at Onion News Network (not that I didn't laugh at that), but it's going to be interesting to watch them again.

That's my memory too as it goes, which surprised at the time as you'd think mocking the news would give them more scope to be funny, but yeah, Sportsdome was definitely the better of the two.

As for your suggestion of rewatching them - fuck off you dirty pirating cunt, they're not available legally in this country* and I'm not going to prison just so you have someone to chat about them with.




*Apart from Onion News Network on dvd, which I do happen to own.

I did love this show greatly back in the day. Michael Falk was a definite highlight: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m5ROoNT7-ZI

I definitely remember his report on the train collision as the highlight of the series.

The show was also the first time I noticed Brian Huskey in anything. He was a regular member of the panel.
