This may be for Cafe Society, Oh well.

I never have seen the show. If you have, please tell me about it.  
Just curious. I never see reruns, so I have a mind of wonder. 🙂

And for those of you who have seen the show was Ed Zo… I mean Cecil the host?

Is the show still on? I’ve never seen it, I don’t think it was broadcast in my area…

From the [Straight Dope Official FAQ](http://www.straightdope.com/faq/officialfaq.html)

I watched it, but apparently that was not enough. IIRC, the host’s name was Mike Luka or something like that.

IANAM, but I suspect this will get moved to Cafe Society or closed, since it doesn’t have a factual answer.

I saw it, but hardly remember it. This Mike guy (If porcupine is right about that) had a shaved head and refered to Cecil. I remember being confused as to why he kept referring to this Cecil fellow. Why didn’t he state the facts himself? Little did I know…

From what I remember, he was a talking head standing in a studio that looked like a bedroom or something. I don’t recall how the questions were handled; if he just told us about the answer or if there was some sort of animation or video which he narrated.

I imagine someone who videotaped the whole thing will chime in soon.

There is a factual answer to the question of what the show was about.

And [here it is](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=54803).
